New to me 10L

Post by creeker »

Just picked a new 10L up on ebay. Will need some work once it gets to me. Had a couple of questions. The wheels and donuts from windtunnel, are all the 4 bolt pattern compatible? Also, are there any rubber tires available for the 10l? Final question, what size bodies fit close. Looking for stock car style probably but any that fit would do. Just trying to get it into a roller. I only have buggies and a truck at this point. Need a car faster than my neighbors nitro 2 speed touring car :D .

Thanks

Rubber type tires were available very long ago but I think you won´t find any these days. I never tried them that time but onroad cars like the 10L are made for foam tires.

Regarding bodies you have to look for 235mm wide. I have no clue on stock cars but GTP type bodies are the one with best handling and downforce usually.

Of course pan car like the 10L coul be faster than most other cars as long as you don´t have a lowgrip track. If it´s dusty or slippery the 2WD pancars are not as easy to drive than a touring car.

Bring a blower to the track aka road because sand and foam tires do not make for a fun day. He will laugh until you blow by. Black dot rear foams are the ticket. Dual stage front foams are good for a little more life on asphalt.
