RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

This was the SS cover, had a clear Lexan insert so the dirt & dust stayed out but sure didn't look it. The RC10 cover has very little room for cutaway sadly, I have some from when I did my SCABs (Slipper Clutch Adjusting Button.) It had the slipper wrench machined into the knob: It was spring-lo...

Ah! Thanks Westcoast! Those do make sense, any shock that lets the spring move about is not good. If you mean the regular white shock clamps, sure, thos are doable. I've never liked most alloy clamps as they don't use a small enough radius to transition from the body to the flanges, which makes 'em ...

Hey! I'm gettin' some good idears from you chaps! :D Westcoast10z, I need to know what those are & what car they're for, then I'll see. Shodog, I get the idea you want flageless nuts! :shock: (I did kinda burn ya cancelling Nutpocalypse 2016. :oops: ) Funny, I been checking out an SRB oil cooler...

MmmKay, so! I knew it would happen eventually, I'm gettin' stretched for part ideas. Ergo and to wit, I'll be looking for sompin' you chaps have long wanted but not seen! When I did the jellybean wheels, it got all crazy: It was obvious that there were 2,413 different front/rear/drive/offset combos ...

Cheetah. That's all need be said, just ignore these other guys... Seriously, if that produces a nice body, throw a few on Ebay & see how they do (So I can buy a couple Bwa-Ha-Ha.) Chris REC

ooooohhh- WOOOOO-oooooh- WOOOO-OOOOHHHHH--wooooooo... (That's the X Files music, obviously.) I dunno what's up there Mate? Pretty weird! Chris REC

Turbo Rocky if they please! I have 2, but want one in the box. Prolly happen soon! :roll: I want a set of the Xtra Speed Gold repro shocks for the Optima, they don't look to have the deep rich colour the originals did though- Am I way out there or? If anyone's seen these in person, let us know eh? C...

So! I have plugged the posts into the Random.org RNG, and it chose #7 after mine, R Cane! Congratulations Mate! All you must do to claim your prize is PM or Email me with your shipping address & wheel choice within 7 days as per the rules- Purty easy eh? More stuff soon Gents/Ladies, stay tuned ...

These aren't setting the world on fire sales-wise Maybe the Holiday? But either way, every set so far has been for the '4x4' Scorcher. Chris REC

CHECK OUT THE 'Rear Tires On Front' 4x4 Option! So! I've been way into some Re-Re Buggies lately- The Scorpion, Tomahawk, Wild One & the like. These are fairly inexpensive, classic cars that I've been wanting for some time. I get 'em & build 'em & go about looking up stuff about 'em: Fir...

Shipping Today! Chris REC

UPDATE: These will ship in 10 days or so, pretty darn close to the estimated ship date. Thanks to all, I appreciate the business! Chris REC

You are all too kind and generous! :oops: Thank you for that. I do my level best every product, that's why some things are so late (It is NOT laziness! Much. :wink: ) At this writing, I have 9 un-spoken-for kits, and those will likely be it forever. Re-issues of such involved, multi-piece items are ...

Agreed! I do thank you for the vote of confidence Shodog, high praise indeed from such a prolific and quality-minded builder! Since theirs is made in (I assume) China, if I did do a motor it'd be stupid expensive (Pinky to mouth, "a MILLLLLLLLLION Dollars") :lol: IF I did one, it'd be like...

Just a Head's Up for all the chaps wondering if the V8 will ever be restocked: I asked John aka Rckcrwlr, Global Team RC4WD manager, about it and he checked with RC4WD. According to him, they will indeed be coming back, all is well! This has been a Public Service Announcement. Chris REC
