My son’s RC10 became the neighborhoods RC10

Post by m_vice »

I wanted to share this with you guys.
A story involving my kids RC10

This is a story from a couple of weeks ago. My Son is a very outgoing person and has no problems making new friends (nothing like his dad). On Sunday we are cleaning his room and he notice some kids outside playing with their bikes. These kids are 8 and 9 year olds and my son is only 4 but he was all about me taking him outside to play with this kids. After some wining about going outside my wife decides to take him out and he runs to the kids and says “hey guys what chu doing?”. We have some nice kids around so he blended in and they invited him to go run bikes around the block.

So later that week one of the kid’s knocked on the door to see if Ian can go out and play and Ian decides he what’s to show his new friend (friends) his RC10.

This is how my son's RC10 became the neighborhoods RC10 and this is a vid of it… :D

…And this was the casualty of fun that day :( . A replacement of a shaft and seal and the car is good to go again. :D

Nice. looks liek a good time was had by all. That's great you got your kids to help fix it. My son likes driving them but leaves it up to Dad to fix them

Yes it was a cool time. My kid actually makes me fix it but he like hanging around for a bit :lol: . I am only glad a local shop had a bunch of parts on sale that I can use for this car. Plus some other parts I have collected during the past years.

It is good to let the kids bash around to get them going in the hobby.

Cool video.

Let me guess the car got crunched by a size 3-5 shoe??? :shock:

At least the only damage was a shaft. If you run out of parts, let me know I have a pretty decent stash of parts that will work great for that application.
