Cool build, out of the vintage RC10s I think the worlds and the graphite are my favorite :wink:

I have a couple of questions for ya.

Why did you go with the T2 steering? Is it stronger??

And

I noticed that you mounted your servo on an angle, is that why there's an extra set of holes where the servo mounts?? I have a 10T and mounted the servo straight instead of an angle, what's the benefit of mounting it on an angle?? not questioning your mounting, but questioning my own mounting :oops: :D


Thank you.

Thank you.
the original steering had cracks when I get the car, so I just installed what I have.
also I tried T2 steering on my gold runner. it worked fine, and strong.

I wanted to make the steering turnbuckle as short as possible. I got BLS 6.5T on this project, and ordered GTB. I do believe fast car needs quick steering response. short steering turnbuckle is for that (I hope). :D then I noticed I had to bend the turnbuckle. but, I didn't want to do. so, I just found a way to mount a servo. and, this made the servo being parallel with the turnbuckle. that worked when I was digging Yokomo and AE GT and T2 at 80's and 90's. I hope it works again.

you know what? I didn't know what I got, only a couple of weeks ago.
