Nice article on the World Champ RC10

i had that cheetah racing front end on my trc lynx pan car. ahh.. memories............

I don't think that's his Worlds winning car. That's the car he won the Reedy Race of Champions with.

I'm not so sure that his Worlds car ever got a write up like that. I think that car is still classified.: lol:

I've got that article too, it's pretty good.

You're right, my bad, this car is from the Reedy Race. The Worlds car is still top secret lol.

if i hadn't been stupid, and got rid of all my rcca's, i remember they did a feature on brian kinwalds worlds car when he drove for associated. i think it was a 93 issue. i could be wrong.

Kinwald, pfffft. That traitor. Masami was, is and will always be god.

I remeber an article similar to the 1989 one showing a very up close view of the front end on the bottom of the chassis of either Masami's 1989 World's car or the 1991 World's car. (wow run on sentence!) It had a very narrow front bulkhead (maybe 1 1/2 inches wide). If anyone has this picture I sure would appreciate it, or please post it for all of us!
Thanks

I never noticed before that Masami had filled the holes from the rear chassis motor guard

It looks like it's just the chassis protector tape over the holes. Most likely to prevent the cheese grater effectform the slowing the car down
