Got this one off ebay last week. It was in good runner condition so I dropped in electronics and went racin.
Those stock tires sure are slippery on clay

Well done .... RC10 was a design ahead of its time and still puttin a whooooooooopin on new cars/trucks of today.

Nicely done, I got a kick out of the corr truck at 1:30 passing you on pure horsepower and then immediatly crashing
Soundtrack took me right back to grade 9. Thanks

Nice job!

I was just at WCRC for a wed night club race two weeks ago, what a great facility.

Jared, PM me when your going out, I would have met up with you. I have a set of "clean" rims I am ready to mount up a set of Suburbs/Scrubs on. Just need the Scrubs and rear molded foams. I was just running it out front of the house yesterday after swapping in a new steering servo (fast & stronger one). I went real old school in it, brushed 15X2 on a Novak Tempest Pro. Only thing "new" on the car will be the receiver/lipo & tires.

i find it more fun to run a gold tub rc10 than a b4.1 just because of the reaction....i finish the same either way, just find the new car more forgiving.

The stock stealth era cars are awesome on the track still! Some 3/16" CVD's and some TT Phoenix BX2 rear wheels and Duratrax fronts and your golden!

Sounds good bro, I will be sure to PM you next time I'm out there, hopefully this coming weekend. I saw your new build post, I will be watching to see what you do with that one!

That sounds like a simple cheap way to get some modern rubber on the ground. That seemed to be my main setback, zero traction. Cool pic!

I am meeting up with Daryl from A&L tomorrow so I will have my steering set in hand along with my dynotech arms, carbonworks worlds towers, and b44 cvds. Unfortunately I cant find any damn hubs/carriers local. Nobody has the RPM GT, custom works or losi around here. I have the 10T hubs but it seems like thats a no go with the arms and b44 cvds. I guess I can order from Tower, but would rather support LHS if I could.

10T hubs should work, the RPM GT were designed to replace them (someone correct me if I am wrong). or which Losi hubs do you need (LXT?), I've got those

I can't multi quote on iPhone, but this is from the oin thread and is what led me to believe 10t hubs won't work.
 Re: What's old is new tech thread
Since there are several different upgrade suspension options listed here, I've tried to go through to determine which ones are the most popular/common. I'm going to miss a few of course but these seem to be the main ones so hopefully anyone who still has a stock RC10 rear end who wants to upgrade can use this as a reference. Feel free to add or correct any details that I miss as I guarantee that I've missed or left some things out.

If using Klein rear arms and B44 CVD's:
Hub options:
Losi 2038 3/16" x 3/8" bearings.
Custom Works 3241 3/16" x 3/8" bearings.
RPM RC10GT 70272 3/16" x 1/2" bearings.
RPM World's (which bearings?)
Additional:
B4 rear axle spacers


If using Klein rear arms and B4 CVD's:
Hub options:
RC10T/T2
Additional:
B4 Hub bearings
B4 inner hub spacers (a must)
B4 outer axle spacers

The 10T rear carriers should work with the Klein arms and B44 cvd's.
Oh yeah, nice tunes!

Stock 10T carriers work just fine: AssoMan's car with 10T carriers -

Ingredients for the rear end:
- RPM or Dynotech "World" rear arms (long)
- stock wide chassis
- stock arm mounts
- RC10T hub carriers

Thanks JK Racing! I really appreciate you confirming that for me. Obviously I was a bit confused on that one. Well, I was going to wait for all my parts to arrive tomorrow, but the 10T is going to get dissected right now!
