An off the wall one I'm not going to link because it's got just a little vulgarity, is the video for the Drum and Bass track, "Joyride", by Amaro and Walden, which features animated characters cruising and getting into trouble around London in a Tamiya Wild Willy.
I get the hesitation... reminds me of the line from Gremlins II... "Was that civilized? Clearly not. Fun. But in no way civilized."
RC10resto posted a really good video in the Ranch Pit Shop Ad thread on the history of Team Losi. Really interesting to watch...
...and the remaining three videos in the series for funzies...

All the Gene Husting's R/C Car Racing Videos that RC Wonder Years has up. I do believe they are all there. I can’t recall which volume or year it is but there is even one where Gene takes you on a really great tour of the Associated factory.
That is a serious amount of footage. I watched a bit of the first one (volume 3). Definitely the kind of videos to sit back with a sammich and a drink. When I get to the one with the Associated tour I'll post it up. Thank you!
In the mean time... slightly shorter... a little less culturally enriching...
I distinctly remember wanting to buy one of those Invader MT trucks back in the day at the end of their production. The price was greatly reduced as a result but for whatever reason I never did. Bolink basically just put off road wheels on one of their pan cars if I remember right. I thought it was still cool though.
I can't hear Cult of Personality without associating it with CM Punk the wrestler.

Edit to hotlink an image from the video:
One of my favorite videos, period, not just of R/C. Kudos to you for posting it.

I could see that... Like picturing Macho Man Randy Savage whenever you hear, "Snap into a Slim Jim!"
BoLINK Invader MT's are cool... kinda hard for the first 1/10 stadium truck kit to not be cool though.
Speaking of stadium trucks... how about some stadium action... 1/76 style!
I was youtubing earlier this week and ran across the RC10 video with Jammin Jay, I also found this old school series called Run with the big dogs, Both video series were very cool. Any others that anyone recommends? How about some new ones?

Wow, I haven't seen that video in over 20 years! I came up with the idea and helped make that video when I was 18. Pretty exciting flying down to LA to meet Jammin Jay and the guys at Associated. They were the nicest people ever. The footage of...
Obviously not his first rodeo. It took me longer than that to get the rear arms and torsion arms aligned and installed. After 5 or 6 this time is doable. I spent two weeks on polishing alone. :D Good video anyway.

I bought this YZ10 about a year ago for $30 off of Craigslist (yes, $30, not $300). It was in quite good condition and just needed some cleaning, but of course, I have since invested quite a bit of money into upgrades. I figured it would be worth...
