I took that pic at RCX a few years ago and Cliff is holding my chassis
Is he? That's cool... then don't chastise us for keeping our imagination running
AE RC10 - Made In The Eighties, Loved By The Ladies.
Blue Was Better - now, Blue Is Bankrupt.

Life is short. Waste it wisely.
I talked to a friend who actually is an engineer at AE if there was ever a chance of a re release of the old Rc10. He said its been discussed and considered, but its a matter of timing considering other projects. I want him to see the what was old is new thread and perhaps get some ideas.
He also stated that for us vintage collectors, a re-release wouldn't de-value existing cars, there would be different indicators to keep them separate.
I have a bunch of vintage bearings (a mix from Kyosho, Tamiya, and Associated cars). What is a good way for me to clean and test these? I'll toss those that aren't good anymore and use the cleaned and tested ones for runners. Looking around online...

Here's my procedure:
Step 3. Scream out in agony as the brake fluid reflects directly back into your eyeball.......
Repeat these steps for each bearing, or until you're legally blind, whichever comes first.
This will be a thread showing the performance differences as the RC10 evolved over the course of 25 years.
To keep parity and only show the chassis performance, all eight cars will share the same front and rear tires...

This is a great video, similar to what I wanted to do! Almost seems like a page was taken from me! :roll: I'm happy, but it pisses me off at the same time! :|
I've been watching these Tekin 900 dynos sell from $70 up to $300. I found one toward the lower half of that price range and decided to snag it.

The Tekin Dyno doesn't seem to like this power supply. The power output keeps cycling between 11.98v and 12.17v and the Dyno test motor keeps increasing and dropping revs. I tried out a 14v 10a Novak N-power supply and I get a good steady motor...
The past couple of days have been nuts for me! :lol: This week-end our unit held an event to raise money for wounded soldiers, it consisted of over 50 teams spin-cycling for 24 hours straight and the event raised over $75K.
I was 'asked' to handle...

My YR-4 I'm selling parts off has a small tree with 6 ballcups: 2 for a servo link or stabilizer and 4 of what seem to be the above???
Is it possible Yokomo was using asso parts in its kits at the time?
but mine would have
- an RC 10 composite craft straight chassis
(yes your shodog: I can 't seem to stick with one idea nowadays)
- a stealth courtesy of mrlexan
- 4 medium kyosho ultimate shocks
- a rollcage body...

Sorry Mr. Ed, I sold f/r shocks NIP a while back. NIP are hard to come by. Speaking of hens teeth, try finding those red plastic collars for less than $10 a piece.
MMM, you must have missunderstood my plans: I was gonna build something using the...
