Since I haven't done much RC related stuff lately I thought I would at least post this thread showing my current status. These are a few pictures of my batteries and my two runners.
First picture shows what interested me most this evening, the difference in battery thickness among LiPo's. Starting from the left: SPC 5K 7.4V, MaxAmps 6K 7.4V, MaxAmps 8K 7.4V, and finally SPC 8K 11.1V.
The last picture is my current runners. On the left is my FT RC10B3 setup for racing(seriously) and on the right is my FT RC10B4 setup for street running. I hope you enjoy and I'll try to get some more, interesting, pictures soon.

Why seriously? The B3 seems like a well put together buggy and I have to say I'm really enjoying mine and overcoming some of my gold pan/old school is best bias.
The seriously part was from me pretty much "copy&paste" the thread while posting it on another RC website I frequent. There it's kind of a inside joke with a few members .
Just joined and wanted to introduce myself. I have been into Radio Control cars since the early 90s, my first real RC car was a RC10 Championship Edition and from there I got into nitro, on-road, etc... Got rid of all my cars when I went to...

Thanks for the links. Definitely some good ideas and inspiration in there. I can't wait to get mine looking as god as some of the ones in that first link.
I know there was a thread somewhere about this but I can not find it. Iam a veteran of racing,20+ years and I still race. I have a dislike for modern buggies and their tight chassis lay outs. I was thinking of grabbing a re release RC10 worlds car...

For my driving style, I have noticed that shorter turnbuckles all around (1 in from longest settings front and rear), wake the car up and it has all the steering and corner speed I want.
Keep in mind Twisted, the more you swap this part for that...
I've got a couple of Comical RC10 buggies to build. I'm starting out with the shorty Masami style build.

Got some running footage today. I had a guest driver while I fumbled with the recording. :mrgreen:
I also added a skid plate. It comes in handy. :lol:

Back in the day 1/10 scale rc cars were fairly compact, with small diameter wheels, short wheel bases, narrow tracks. Things remained like this all through the 1980s.
Then out of the blue manufacturers started bringing out extra long wheelbase...

I think it's even more noticable in the 'Micro' class within the UK. It started out as 1/18 scale with correspondingly sized wheels and gradually grew and grew until the '1/16' scale cars are the same width as 1/10 touring cars, run 1/10 touring car...
