I found a gorgeous barely used rc10gt the other day. Motor was all goopy solid but I got it freed up. Never tried nitro before! Chassis is real nice, only minimal scratches.
Not sure what to do with her. Drive? I need a dirt track instead of just bashing in the street.
That's a solid, clean GT. Couple suggestions. If you have never messed with nitro stuff, there are several great videos on youtube regarding how to tune and maintain them. Those AE motors are pretty reliable, not fast by any means but perfect for a newcomer to nitro. Have you gone through the carb yet? If the motor was gummed up then the carb will most likely need attention.
As for the rest, I would pick up an PRM receiver box that encloses the receiver and helps keep dirt and fuel out. Next would be to get rid of that battery holder and get a proper receiver pack. A 5 cell hump pack is preferable and only runs about $15-20.
Current:RC10T, T3 FT, GT Blue Tub, GT FT, GT2 FT, GT5, RC28, SC28, Micro RS4.
and if you are looking for a dirt track oval car. check the tracks classes. i lknow out at one fo the track here, there was a 1/10th scale nitro truck class. so there are kits to make it into one.
They make great street runners too but you'll wanna change up some stuff like tires, shocks, etc first. Running the baseball/softball diamonds are fun with these too. Hard on those little motors for extended amounts of time but fun just the same

This morning while cruising Craigslist I came across the posting for this RC10
The guy lives in a city 90 miles away and not wanting to miss out, I jumped on my Motorcycle for the 180 mile trip. Turns out he also had a new built Graphite buggy...

Wow, nice score! Those are my favorite of all the Tecnacraft wheels. The size and style just look right. I have an addiction to them too, and I blame you and your gallery. Are outer rims in decent shape? I see them now, on a blue RC10 tuber build....
Met up with a guy last night and bought his collection of things. Lots of nice pieces. bunch of extra electronics. One RC10 is a CE with an MIP tranny and tecnacraft turn buckles. The other is a worlds buggy. the two 10Ls are in good shape. I really...

BTW what brand is the touring car, I can't work it out??
Seller stated it is a Yokomo YR4 M2. it's really a nice car. I'd keep it if I didn't already have three Xrays
My first car was a fox. Actually, my first cars were nikkos, etc, but my first REAL car was a fox. Got it for xmas in the mid 80's. I still remember sitting at the little table in the kitchen next to the refrigerator building it. I also remember it...
Hah, trades move fast on this board. I brokered a deal to buy back a car I sold this summer for this craigslist gold pan plus some cash. So the new owner will have to announce his plans for it!
Good afternoon all. I'm new to the forum my name is Nick. I have a RC10GT RTR that has been converted to brushless.
I'm in the process of finishing the build and I need some spur gear help.
I have plenty of spare spur gears but I'm looking for...

Here are a few more pictures of the truck and a picture of the gear hardware, it looks like something was rubbing. I just ordered all new parts last night.
Almost done with it, just waiting on some more parts and I need to finish the front...
Hey gents,
First post here. I have an old nitro rc10gt that I'm in the process of getting running. The only thing stopping me up now in the starter. Every couple pulls, the string gets stuck. I've been looking at getting a roto start or drill start...

I have to (respectfully :mrgreen:) disagree.
Thanx for being respectful :mrgreen: 8) .
I shouldn't have laid out 'dirt' as a general term since I know every place is different. Up here in my area we have a sugar type clay or river bottom dredge...
So, with my re-ignited passion for RC10s, I have been keeping track of Craigslist. I just missed out on an early Edinger... But, I did have a good pickup recently on a truly UNUSED Late Black Stealth RC10CE. This thing should be in a museum! I was...
