When these cars were new in 1984 we made the comment that they were made with a "weird" nylon and it wasn't very white. We were used to the RCH bright white Nylon on the SRB cars.

The WE I speak of are the guy on the Right Front tire of this Porsche (me) and the guy in the doorway of the trailer setting the torque wrench at Pikes Peak this year. This was 4:AM. We both had new RC10s as soon as they were available the first time.=

BTW: My reissue is in Commerce City Colorado and to be delivered tomorrow late in the afternoon. It will go on the bench next to the 4 original cars that are going together.

No this one isn't mine. Nice car and it sips fuel which I have never known any racecar to do. Indeed very sad that the road is paved. The only good thing about it is that its no longer partially paved so you can make a tire choice and stick with it. This however is now an issue with snow and rain on race day.is

The guy in the door is Bob Campbell and his Evolved Edinger is in the thread titled RC10s with Racing History.

My re re says its now out for delivery. Whoo Hoo!

The new box has "26 World Champions" logos next to Team Associated

The address on the box is in fact a CA address, not China. I didn't note exactly where, but it is in Cali.

Mine should arrive soon on my doorstep. Can't wait to run it and sepcially build it!

In the meantime, I just read some good news here: http://www.bigsquidrc.com/team-associated-rc10-classic-accessories/

Black pans, front kick-up and motor plate are coming together with ball-raced steering rack and... a conversion kit for front and rear to run modern B4 wheels... they did it after us :lol:
