Selling all my R/C cars and parts after moving to WA in 1990....
2 RC10's....one all Hot Trick, the other had alot of cool stuff too.
RC10L
Corally SPII
AYK Radiant
Kyosho Ultima
RPS Yokomo SE

I had a couple of Tamiya cars as well....but don't feel as bad letting them go....except for the "Wild One"....my 1st car....

My biggest regret is not talking my brother into keeping his Tamiya Supershot from back in the day. Today we are both astonished with how much they sell for.

How much do they go for i still have mine.

Regrets selling my super nice ultima 100% winning car to buy an RC10 graphite team car the ultima was super nice i sold it to an club member and he was very exited to use it but it got stolen the night before the race he was devistated and bought un pro xl ultima for the ensurance money stupid kid.

Regret trading my RC10 graphite team car not 100% winning but made top 3 every time i used it except for one time when i lapped the field and and the battery dumped 10 feet from the finish line i was TQ dough for an wastegate and some other turbo stuff that i actually didnt use.

I guess it would be working at a hobby shop in 1988 with 25 fresh from the factory Yokomo YZ-10's and not buying one.

Theres a couple that I still think about.

Bolink Gold edition.
USA-1
Mugen MBX4r (Its not really the actual car I miss i't was the horrible price I let it go for!!)

Selling my fusion speed graphite tub chassis for the RC10 new in package... ...

Oh, and selling my mint Tamiya Avante.......

Not putting the safety on! JK!

I would say moving to Jamaica for 9 wasted years of my life. I will never go back!

well lol
brand new never ran nitro rs4 mini with EVERY option hpi made along with all the new stock parts since i was 11 and afraid i would ruin it because i hit just about everything at that age and i sold it for 200 but made 50 bucks now it is worth WELLLL over that. IF ANYONE KNOWS OF ONE ANY CONDITON I WANT IT!!

4tec pro that i bought with 125$ of the cash from the rs4 took apart cleaned put back together sold for 200 for the same reason being 11 and afraid to break it now i cant even find one now SAME AS ABOVE but MUST have all pro parts(dont need proball diffs)
working at a hobby shop and had first go at anything at cost and first go of anything but the cars at 75% off when we closed in feb and all i bought was a mgt 3.0 and relizing tower had it on sale for what i paid damn lol

I gave away an original RC10. That was in 2000. I also sold a Optima Mid SE with graphite chassis for $100 back in 94.

For me it was throwing out all of my spare stuff from my racing days when I moved out of my parents house years ago. I had all of my spare Losi parts and just about every RCCA ever made until 1994. That kills me to think about that stuff being gone.

Thankfully though, i still have my first JRX-T (mostly) and LXT.

I've been in RC since I was 14 waaaaay back when and raced all the time at our local track in Upstate new York. I got married in 1995 and moved to Florida (not by choice but it all worked out). I took all my RC stuff with me but wound up selling all but my RC10T. I kick myself every day for doing it, however over the last ten years I have built my collection back up. Now that I'm doing it all again, I'm not getting rid of anything. My wife had come to terms with my hobbies years ago so I'm safe there.

I bought a New Rookie Rabbit back in 1994 or 1995, for those of you who know this buggy it is the less known brother to the Fighter Buggy.
I saved up for almost a year to buy it, and then when it came, I sent it back and bought a original Traxxas Rustler, not the crap one they sell these days
I bought a Fighter Buggy about a year ago thinking it would be the same, but it wasnt. I just remember looking at that ad for it over and over again, night after night. Just waiting for it to arrive in the mail...it was almost unreal. I guess that would be my biggest mistake in this hobby.

Just for nostalgias sake
not mine Im afraid

I'd say the cars I miss the most are my fiberlyte yz10 works car that I sold in ebay for like 150 buck (I gave them the complete works car AND the FB tub), and possibly my FG Leopard

After looking back, I also remember getting a really nice yokomo se from a local "crook". Since we only raced dirt oval, (1988) we took 2 of them and cut them up so we could use the front end on the back with 2 chains to copy the Dominators layout. It worked well, but two 14 year old kids could not even afford a good 7-cell battery, much less, good modified motors to compete with it. We just kind of trashed it and used it for screws and stuff. Ouch!
