I went to the track tonight just to check it out. The track is super smooth and sticky. I could feel my shoes sticking as I walked. The locals are running silver compound JConcepts Smoothie 2 slicks with foam (front p/n 4018-06; rear p/n 4017-06) and using SXT. I am sure other brands will work, too...

If we were running those rules at say the VONATS... I feel boosted 17.5 would 100% be just as fast as 13.5. I personally think 13.5 vintage truck would be a killer class! Yeah, I plan to run a 10T with 13.5 at this race in March! "the" 10T? Haha!! Actually, for the race at Hoosier I am go...

Here is the 10T I mentioned above:
-Hobbywing 13.5
-ProTek servo
- 12mm shocks
- Moto-Obscura brass weight sandwiched behind the front bumper
- built in short wheelbase, with A&L steering rack:

I finally got around to reading the rules. Is the heritage class requiring RC10 to run 6 gear just date driven by the built before 1990? I know it's all bench racing but seems a 6 gear RC10 is a step or two behind a new JJ Ultima kit or Triumph. Big bore threaded shocks, slipper, updated metal gear...

I raced a lot from about 1985 to 1990, pretty much every weekend and sometimes during the week! - By far the most frequent racing was 1/10 off-road, multiple RC10s, and a brand-new JRX-2 when it came out. The first model I ever raced was a Tamiya Falcon! - Also raced many times on dirt oval - I had ...

As seen in the first post, they're all available in the RC10Talk library: https://www.rc10talk.com/library/?RCCA Here is the direct link to the 1991 June edition: https://www.rc10talk.com/library/RCCA/1991/6-RCCA_1991_June.pdf Enjoy! :) Ahh, sweet!! I should have started at the beginning of the thr...

I researched a bit - this was the version of RC10T3 I bought in 2002: - 2001 Assembled Versions: - #7009 RC10T3 Team- Built (ARR) - less radio system and electrical, with bushings and wheel ball bearings I can't find a picture, but I don't think it came with a body? Or if it did, the body was not pa...

Wow, that looks great!


Let me know when you are ready to sell

This model (minus the coke-bottle body) sits on my shelf most of the time - just as an oddity / vintage survivor. I dusted it off recently to scavenge a part - this thing still runs great! I imagine the ball-cups would not last through a race, but I ran it around the house and it is a perfectly capa...

I found a basic answer to this question from Reggie, in this old thread: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=23357&start=90 Re: My 2012 Vonat Builds (2WD) (02/18/12) Post by Charlie don't surf » Tue Feb 21, 2012 9:36 pm adam lancia wrote: Standard buggy/truck rear green springs and light gr...
