Not that we have tons of new members each day, but we thought we would restructure this forum a little bit and use this spot for new members to introduce themselves.
Hello All, thanks for having me. I am a big RC10 fan and have been reading a lot of the great posts on this site. I get out to RC Excitement once in awhile for a race but I enjoy tooling on my cars most of all. I was at the VONATS this year and...

Welcome aboard!! Vonats was a ton of fun, cool that you were able to attend!
Hey all! Just wanted to say hi! New to the forum not to the hobby. Been away from it about 10 years. Grabbed my car out of the bin the other day and got it all back in working order. Hopefully I can pick your brains to help me out and figure out...
Hey everyone thanks for the add! I may be a lurker for a while as I am trying to do as much research as I can on rc10 cars and other brands also. I have always been interested in the older rc cars, I was born in 86 so had the vhs tapes with all the...
...for inspiring me to return my RC10 back to it's late 80's paved oval form. There is so much information here, hopefully there are a few nuggets of wisdom I can pass along from my 30 years in RC in return.
Just here to enjoy the posts, and maybe contribute a post or two myself. Everyone have a blessed day!

I looked it up... cool on-road track! Is it next to Ultimate's old location on Katella?

Hello!
My name is Dragos, i'm 21 and i'm a mechanical engineering student. I went to this department 2 years ago because my passion for RC cars. I've bought my first RC car in 2007, it was a RC18MT bought from a local forum. I live in a small town...
The usual story, grew up in the 80s, had a gold tub, dug it out decades later, refurb, found the RC10Talk.com board, read everything at least once, spent inordinate amount of money and now my 2 (Edinger buggy and original 10T, both which I bought...

AustinZ, howdy partner. I'm roughly 3 hrs from Austin in West TX. As you already know there is a wealth of information in these forums. I spent a lot of time lurking before making some posts. Post some pics of your fleet when you get a chance.
Thanks for the add.
I got out the hobby for about 15 yars or more and recently decided to get back into it with my son. To
finance our VTA season, I sold pretty much everything I had from 15 years ago. I kept my RC10DS though and am...

The contribution we all love most are PICTURES! Show us your DS and whatever else you've got cookin'. And welcome from The Land That Trudeau Forgot--Alberta! :lol:
Long time guest , finally made an account.
Started RC around '85 and have been on and off since then. My son started showing interest in some of my old cars hanging up so I went through my team car from around '91 and let him learn. Picked up a 10t...
A few months ago a new RC track opened up very close to my house in Arlington Heights, IL. I used this as an excuse to get my 7 year old boys into the sport and bought them a Slash. I dusted off my RC10T I raced when I was 13 and I'm in the...

Nice, what motor did you go with?
I put in a Castle 5700 a few years ago when I was just bashing it outside. That's total overkill, so I'm planning on getting a Reedy blackbox set-up so I can race at the track.
G'day all,
My name's Dan and I thought I'd say hi. This forum could be quite useful to me and hopefully on my journey I can help out some people too. Just bought and built a Tomahawk rerelease and also an RC10 Worlds Rerelease which is still on its...

Thanks for the welcome guys looking forward to getting stuck into a couple of builds in the near future.
I mainly got it because it had a couple of trucks that I have so I can use as parts/make loaners. However, it came with what I think is a T3 (based on extra parts that it has in packages), but I...

Well... We got it going and broke it in the same day :)
Broke an axle about 20 minutes in. Seeing as I did not have any replacements I decided to try and make something work with what I have.

A co-worker of mine recently pulled is RS4 from his attic and is getting it back up and running for his son. This inspired me to get my old RC10 (mostly converted to a T) out and see what it would take to get it going again. It was...

Welcome aboard - you probably had the most amazing first post on the forum, ever. I had actually seen that Ryuz lookalike on oOple earlier, when I saw your name in that month's contest, I knew I should wait for the next round to enter :mrgreen:...
Greetings fellow enthusiasts. It's been a long time for me (1979). I started out with an Associated RC100, powered by a Veco 19. Never got into organized racing of any type, just parking lot running on my own.

Wow cool! Glad I got you digging! The b2/b3 stuff is different unfortunately. The diff is slightly larger making it unusable
Too bad on the no stamp but that's where they get their value. Everyone used em!
Hey now everybody, like most of you I just can't get enough of these complicated toy cars. For me, the more complex they are the better. I like to build them, repair them and mod them.

I'm the latest new guy here I guess. I had an original gold pan car back in the mid 90s that I bought out of a junk bin at a hobby shop. Then moved on to a B2. After that I got out of RC for about 20 years but now I'm back. I picked up a pretty...

Didn't take long to pick up more, I've already grabbed a couple of parts RC10's on eBay.
The more I look at this one the more I think I may just shelf it and build one of the parts buggies to actually run.

Getting back into rc cars after 20 years. I started piecing together a vintage rc10 when I was 14 and never finished because it was a little too expensive for a 14yo's income. While looking up ideas for a fun hobby I can do without a garage, I saw...

We could never afford the cool RCs when I was a kid, so after a few years of being in RC I have finally started looking for some of those oldies. Looking forward to joining this forum!
I'm a new member here. I found the website from another very specific forum, Tamiya Club. I am newly (back) in the hobby after about 30 years. Back in the 80s, as a kid, I had a Hotshot II and totally loved it. Unfortunately, it did not...

Welcome! Your story and motivation is eerily similar to my own.

Hi Lotus74
I've never raced before but hope to go to the Brett Davis Vintage GP in January. I have a few cool cars now, so I just need to focus my efforts on making them race worthy.
Originally from France, I have been living in Switzerland for quite a while now. Almost 40 yo, kids growing ( 6 yo and 3 yo), it was time to fall again into my old RC stuffs. Like many of you did...

Looks fun. And with the 55T + speed limitation on the radio handset, it manages nice in the rough.

I agree. I'd like to see some of the stuff you've made. That's why I like this board is there's so much more than just RC10's to look at
