My rc10 beetle... Never had a rc10 before. Only had tamiyas back then. Got the bug a while back ended up with a few lol...

Very interesting for sure. Do you drive it often? Any action shots?

I believe your rear upper shock mounting is off. The white blocks typically are bolted to the front of the rear tower instead of the rear. That makes the rear shocks incline slightly forward, inline with the direction of the suspension compression. Are you not getting any binding with that setup? Nice looking 10-scorcher all in all.

Not really sure if its correct or not. No idea actually..Lol...
You rc10 guys should help me out with this one..

ya, you either need to flip the whole tower around, or flip the mounts to the frontside of the tower.
