While I was waiting for the TBG TQ10 body to make its way through the USPS black hole, I decided to slap together a Graphite basket case that has been warming the shelf for a number of years.

I decided to be a little less strict on my OEM only...

I acquired a new build buggy from mikea96 several years ago. I was very pleased with his vision, but the purist in me decided to strip it down and make it an AE parts car only. The pic below shows some of the original parts that were sourced. Neon...

The RC10 has such a wide nose plate, it's just like it's made to be tinkered with. So why not do a lay down front suspension?

It bolts up nicely in place and works smoothly. The...

Hi I have recently dug out my old B3 with the idea of taking up racing again and I have noticed I am missing the CVD dog bone and the relevant pins and coupling. As I am looking to race the car my intention is to try and replace the parts I need to...

Fan RC is reproducing them but they appear to be out of stock everywhere.
I know Avid makes a version but it's aluminum and I'd prefer a steel shaft and gear.
Anyone else making these?

Putting the finishing touches on a RC10GX stealth car from the kit that Grand Prix 3D sells.

Really like how the car is coming along, the parts in the GP3D kit are really nice quality and everything more or less fit. I bought the turnbuckles from...

The motor with a blue and chrome label that came with the original RC10.
There are no markings on the can or end bell and no reference to Reedy.
Was it made by Yokomo :?:

Back at the work bench after a hiatus while building a house and then messing around with HO slot cars over the past few years. I started to restore this TQ10 several years ago but never got past tear down. I did collect a few NIB parts back then,...

This is my first project posting on this forum. If this is the wrong section, please move it to the correct section.

I enjoy doing custom builds dsigning and fabricating custom parts. I have a decent amount of capabilities within my shop including...

I've finally got around to looking for a mid '80's RC10 buggy and have found one locally going at a good price.
Can someone date this sucker?
My economic forecast for 2009 looks bleak if I win this buggy:shock:
Dig that funky CRP bumper...That'll...

The budget runner brothers freshly-batteried for summer and ready for first shakedown!
The brushless car features a JC Racing transmission (adapted for stock dogbones with a slight motor plate mod for pin-clearance which works great).

Question for our more knowledgeable members.. I have been trying to find some new gold aluminum screws 8-32 for my RC10 builds and they seem hard to find.

I've made millions of custom screws and hardware over my career, and I'm thinking of just...

Sorry if this has already been discussed. I watch this site closely and haven't seen it mentioned but it's possible that I've somehow missed it.

I’ve recently noticed these popping up on ebay – around the time AE announced the 40th. Maybe these...

Here are some pics of the restoration so far.
Both are supposed to be Cadillac Ave cars.

Total newbie here. RC10 brain trust: What are the go-to tires (and maybe replacement wheels) for neighborhood bashers? I’ll be running the 40th re-re as I would have 35 years ago in a mixed urban environment (parks, ball field, streets, curb...

Does anyone know what the snap ring size is for the 6 gear trans. out drives?

It's been a while since I did a build thread -

Sooo-- I moved to South Carolina, just south of Charlotte. Been here 9 years now-- had no idea it was such an RC racing hotbed --particularly outdoor 1/8th scale.

Well, one of the tracks just opened...

Anyone no the difference between the 10t vs rc10 rpm enhanced steering kits?

Hi all.

I am working on getting a short-arm RC10 going again and I need tie-rods. Where are you getting yours? I can't seem to find anything that is not ridiculously over priced.

Thanks.

Hi!
I'am building an brand new RC10 World's from old and new parts. Last part missing is the ASC7377 - Rear Axle Bearing Spacer. I can't find it anywhere. I know I could buy a B4, or T4, that used this part, but I hope RC10 Talk community could help...

I swear I searched and couldn't find it. I know there's a thread that shows how to convert a B4 to 12mm hexes up front using non-Associated (easy to find) parts but I can't find it. I had it saved on my last phone but it died 😔

Any help is greatly...

thought i might as well post this here since its getting close to finished .
started as a basket case i posted about here years ago . my youngest (7) wanted his own car so i got to work . need to order a body and and do a final tear down and clean...

What are the most common sizes used on pre-B5 era Associated buggies?
.05
1/16
3/32
5/64

Was 5/64 used a lot? I don't remember. I vaguely remember 3/32 being the most common size for most fasteners on the B4.

ok... this is an auction i listed on ebay with some stuff i dug up out of my hoard. its an mip sp45 4x4 kit with a modded chassis.

10talk member here JPAE07 bought it sunday but a few days prior i came across something a little weird.

while...

Does the original 2.25:1 stealth transmission just bolt in the 6-Gear tranny hold pattern on the gold chassis? NO MODIFICATION REQUIRED?

I've got a B stamp Championship Edition with the 6-gear. Dont want to drill the chassis. Looking at buying a...

ok so i'm going down a lot of rabbit holes for various transmissions. just looking at options for replacing the 6-gear. Looking at the factory works/jc racing tranny case and going through the parts they list. I was able to track all the parts...

This started as a project for a friend, but in the process of drawing it up and getting parts together I decided that I needed one too. The suspension arms, bellcranks, shock towers, battery cups, chassis, top plate, etc. were all designed by...

So, I've been gifted one these kits by a good dude for helping him out by storing stuff the last 6-7 months or so. I think it's way overpayment for my services, but he disagrees. :lol:

I knew it was only a matter of time before someone made this a...

Started building a new stealth trans this evening pulling out all the parts I’ve been hoarding b3 rebuild kit, new 6580, v2 slipper, avid top shaft. Line them all up and start greasing. I open the out drives that I remember scavenging for and...

Cars been in the garage for a few years and I'm dusting it back off. My son will be getting a set of keys soon and Id like to increase my insurance. I need a bumper and skid plate. I've already dented the front end pretty good but id like to protect...

My first post. I had an RC10CE in 1991 that’s long gone. Tamiya rereleases rekindled my rc habit a couple of years ago, and I have my eyes on an RC10 resto project. (Also hoping they do a 40th reissue).

I found this yesterday that might be too...

Is there a replacment for ASC3926? I am looking online and don't see any parts to rebuild the diff. I see I can still get ASC6581 diff balls.

It was so joyful starting the resurrection of my old A stamp (late Edinger) so when I got into the build, I simply had to switch to a parallel build including a early Edinger I bought last year. Probably should have finished my own late Edinger...

The Losi family has had a strong connection to Team Associated and the RC10. The question has been asked, what if there was a pan chassis RC10 that came before the RC10B2, and the results are really cool. Multiple people have done excellent builds...

JC has molded the conversion box I created that uses a B6 ball or gear diff and a DR10/SR10/RB10 slipper. This case will allow the buyer to bolt it right into any RC10 as it has both stealth and 6 gear holes, and will fit either trans brace. Keep an...

Here we go again. I've had this NIP Composite Craft Worlds RC10 chassis for a few years. I was torn between building it vintage or modern. Since my first CC RC10 is mostly vintage with some modern touches, I wanted to stick true to one direction on...

Hi all, putting together a B3 and wanted to see some shock ideas. Im really happy with the 12mm shocks on my updated c tub. Has anyone went this direction with their b3s?Becuase I dont have any shocks, Im leaning toward 12mm. Your thoughts......

Hello all! Would someone possibly have a picture or part #of the RC10 B4 K FACTORY Front mounts, so a carbon fiber tower can be mounted? I am having, a very tough time finding out what it exactly looks like.

Nearing a vintage race I've decided to dust off an old build of mine and let it stretch its legs. I've not posted this car before so even if it is an old and to this forum a fairly plain build, I throw it in here.
At first I could not remember...
