Go figure
Wait for tower and the others to release pricing. The original trans was $120 twenty years ago

$96 and no motor plate ($16), gear cover ($??) or felt gasket (unavailable)? I don't want to sound unappreciative that this has been re-released, but come on...

As mentioned, you can use the existing RC10 Classic motor plate, or any original motor plate that had holes for a stealth transmission. You could also still use the RC10 classic gear cover (without the plug), or you can use the new RC10WC molded gear cover.
As for the felt gasket, we didn't have the tool for that anymore and the 'benefit' of the gasket was not worth the cost of re-tooling. I know that might disappoint some guys.

Since the weather continues to be garbage, I decided to go ahead and build this one. While none of it was hard, several things were more aggravating than I thought.

I think its probably a little brighter than that. But you can experiment with different backing colors on some scrap lexan.
This car was backed in white, before covering it with black. A silver or grey would darken it up a little, but I think...
the reedy race is around the corner and i am looking forward to watching it on Liverc.com. I hope the show the vintage class. I don't know if this is any indication of what to expect but:

After a very very pleasent welcome from very very nice forum members I want to show you my finished RC10 runner for 2014. It`s a hybrid between a team and worlds car with some - not too much - modern stuff.

Hi helios1, 85Edinger, stickboy007,
thank you very much for all compliments!
@helios1: I`ve cut the nose plate and chassis sides on my own. Both sides are cut down to 18mm. I`ve included some pictures.
Just ordered this kit from AMain, also picked up another 1060 HW ESC for it. The manual says 30 to 22 turns brushed motor for this model. The LeMans 490, 30 T motor, is what's shown being used:
I bought this motor for $20, and can't find any...

Thanks !
Wonder if you could spray the sidewalls with clear plasti-dip to get the lettering to last a little longer...
I could see swapping wheels and bodies just for fun... Kyosho wheels, stock style dune buggy... dropped with a different Beetle...
So this is how it ended up.
For now it´s got narrowed 2,2 truck rims at the rear.
Hopefully I´ll come across a set of 2 or 1,9 rims with the right offset.
Amazing how things tend to snowball. I started to build a Kinwald Worlds replica from a re-release kit, gathered a few vintage parts, cut the chassis, then it was pointed out that the original didn't have a machined tub. Now I had to source one of...

Hey guys, sorry for the late reply. I think I cut about a 1/4 off the sides. Weight loss, negligible. It looks cool, and the body doesn't rub on the edges as much.
I ended up drilling and tapping some 4-40 nuts. I'll post up some pics when I get...
Over in the UK we have been able to get a couple of heats of vintage, running alongside the normal racing in the Summer series at the Kidderminster track.
Rd 1 - May 4th
Rd 2 - June 29th

Hopefully, just waiting for Ross to sought out some dates for the Summer series.
