I picked up this chassis on ebay about a week ago. Does anyone have some info on this. Its not a graphite chassis but seems to be a carbon chassis . Its not as rigid as a graphite. Its a chassis that I don't have and just purchased it on the spur of the moment.

That's a TQ10 chassis.

very nice and I would also add pretty rare, especially in that condition! Nice score!

nice score, dude. it's actually a later tq10 chassis. the holes down the side are countersunk, and the holes are in the rear for a motor guard, even though they didn't come with one. it would've had the widtrack front end with the 4 hole shock tower.

My mistake you are correct . I just edited my post.

I'm not up to date on part numbers . So this chassis is just a hop up from associated.

no it never came as a hop-up, it's the TQ10's stock chassis

here's mine, all original (except the wing and rear motor guard):

This site is full of information on the TQ10...

This is one I rescued, not as nice as some but hey...:

Try the search, you'll find more than a few around.

So just replace this chassis from a graphite chassis ? That is it ? Panice has set in !! :

Not quite that easy... First you have to decide which TQ10 you're going to replicate.

These RC10's amaze me !! Originals , graphites , tq's , worldes , gold pans , blackpans, powder coated,edinger, team car. And the list goes on .
I'm trying to learn all this but sometimes it just get's so overwhelming . I need to go to a RC10 history class .
anyone else have this problem

awsome!!! thats all i can say.

Aside from the chassis, the other key features to the tq10 are the sidwinder body (nicely portrayed on Asso_man's and a black anodized motor plate with just the three holes to mount the 6-gear trans (no forth hole for the stealth trans). Ooooo, the different versions. Wasn't it determined by whether certain holes along the sides of the chassis were countersunk or not? .......A whole other can 'o worms. Sorry, had to do it

Very nice chassis btw!!!
