Will Jay be driving an RC-10 or a vintage Losi?

I'll be driving scr8p's prize Kyosho Ultima..... Oh, you meant Jammin Jay.

I'd love to go as it's only about an hour or so from where I grew up and about 20 minutes from where I went to college. But, I think I had my fill of visiting the family during the holidays. I'll be there in spirit. BTW, Jeff we should talk about an idea I have in mind.

Jay (the other one)

Jay,

They don't need to know you're here! I won't tell.

You have my email address and phone number. I'm all ears for your idea.

Jeff has a thead going on RCtech now for the Spring Fling.

The 1st Annual Spring-Fling is upon us at last!
There should be a very large vintage buggy-racing class at this event, everyone running a 13.5 motor limit.
This Sunday, March 27th The RC Asylum is creating the new layout for the race and it should be amazing and perfect for the vintage class cars (no huge supercross or 1/8th scale jumps as are common nowdays on big tracks that also race 1/8th scale nitro).
I know of 5 to 6 RC10Talk members going, and we hope to see everyone having a great time.

The bad news is that I haven't heard back from Halsey after he said he was coming.

The good news is that this car will go to the winner of the vintage class! Every part on this car is new. It also comes with a Mr. Lexan Mirage SS body, AE wing kit, MVice front bumper, B4 wing mounts (so the winner has the option to mount the wing either way) and a paint job anyway the winner wants it, courtesy of Kustomrcgraphics!

Nice build Jeff someone going to be very happy any chance you will be running one of your Pro Radiants regards, Chris

No Pro Radiants this time. We recently switched from AE after 27 years when we were picked up by TQ Racing, so ALL of my effort has gone into the new cars. I have to say, the switch was worth it!

So does this mean no more vintage Rc10 racing?

Yes and no. With TQ providing all our cars/parts we have an obligation to run, support and promote their products. So, rather than run my RC10 in stock or mod buggy I will be running my TQ SX10. If there's a vintage specific class I will run the RC10.

Jay, I'm not going to moth ball the RC10 just yet, but I won't be racing it unless there's a "vintage" class. With the way the vintage class is growing down here I am pretty sure the RC10 will still see regular use.

Leaving at 0600, 9 hour drive, destination Fl. I look forward to the race.

Reggie, are you coming???

Awesome bigjeepzz!
Looking forward to your arrival, you're going to enjoy the huge and flowing track layout!
The vintage class should be fairly large and made up mainly of RC10's.
It's Spring-Fling Time!

You and Harris just wait-

Well I finally got to put some faces to the names/cars...It was great to meet Ruffy and Jeff Harris, and see the gold tubs alive and well. Best of all, I never thought I'd ever see a bunch of them together on the racetrack...Thanks guys.
