Hi all, I am hoping to buy this soon to be released rc10 worlds car and I am hoping somebody on here can help me find a picture of the car I am trying to replicate. It's Craig dreschers worlds car he used at the 1995 euros in Finland. I have only...

That is a really nice World's Car. I wonder if that was one of the last times Craig ran the tub car.
Is that battery brace from the T2?
Yup T2 brace it is. I think he raced one early 2000 in Germany, maybe Dortmund?
well, i finally got an all original gold tub ( 6016 ). it's all there, too. i traded a guy i used to race with this and a T3 roller for my reflex-10 roller. he got it from a guy he works with, who's kid bought it new in nov. of 88. the original...

I have been studying this car and building my own finally, and a few things I have noticed that have not been brought up.
1) The servo would most likely have been a Futaba J connector as I have only seen straight side bye side bye side...
This one will take a little while since I'm lacking quite a lot of parts. Starting off with a bunch of parts I have left from all of these rere kits I've been throwing together.
So this one is going to be a modernized replica of Masami's car that...

It's interesting that the Masami 1993 car looks like a trimmed and tweaked production car and the earlier 1989 and 1991 are basically specialty prototypes.
The trick item for the 93 Worlds seems to have been the milled tub. Some guys had them,...
Sooooooo, when you get 3 of the kits and none of them are being built stock, you tend to have a lot of parts left over. And of course, you just have to do something with them. :lol:
I finished 2nd yesterday in the classic class with my Tamiya Manta Ray. Had a great battle for the lead, but caught the pipe with like 40-45 sec left and couldn't catch back up. I'll update that build thread later.
Just picked this up yesterday for a pretty good price i think. Cant wait to get it. I will need some worlds front and rear wheels and tires if anyone has any they want to get rid of.

Lots more done today and i must say this has been great to build. I installed new RPM ball cups today only to find that the ball cup on the shock tower and the inner ball cup mounted on the steering rack hit so i need to order some stock associated...
To start this off, I would 1st like to congratulate Jay Halsey himself on winning the 1st ever IFMAR OffRoad Worlds in 2WD, and sending the RC10 and RC World into a spiral of evolution that has taken the RC10 to many subsequent World Championships!...

Love these jay halsey builds I styled my b6.4s with a touch of this styling. Still want to add black front wheels. It’s not as detailed but is a bit of a throwback.
I have been looking at my Hot Bodies Stealth Fighter for ages now wondering what do with the shell.. Seeing as it's so close to a RCPS mirage I guessed it would make a nice Kinwald replica. I can hear the crack of purist pipes falling on the floor...

Was that the carbon with fibre glass in the middle?
Yeah, that was it. Hilarious. A carbon fiber decal over glass.
