I will start another thread with my build so I'm not hijacking this one.

I love the "backyard" engineering of these types of cars, thinking outside the box and creating something spectacular.

Sure we turned the trans around bitd, but never at this level. We did a lot of things back then that were ok in concept but didn't catch on. Very nicely done, keep up the great work and represent the great NW!

What a great build!

Was there any videos of it in action?

I'm interested in a mid conversion, hope it makes it to production

All the best with the project

Scored a very used i think composite craft chassis and and a AE graphite chassis off the Bay with some major holes chopped out of it..these might be a good donor for a lighter version...

Yep, Adrenalin Arena. My RC10 G1 is done. Decided to keep it simple and use the original parts I had laying around for now. Can spend the money on tyres.

AA has so much traction that some 2wd guys are converting 4wd cars to 2wd for even more forward weight. One of the guys is a general and RC fabricator and has made this rocket. His facebook page is Bezerk RC. He'll make anything - very reasonable prices too.

I counted about 5 RC10M conversions there last night - along with other vintage mid conversions. They've had to make a new class to split between the "engineered" and "kit" cars. The state indoor titles are being run soon which has a wall ride. They had a test of it last week. The wall will be carpeted. Can't wait.

The 2 top running 2wd Modified drivers have G10m's - One is made from a rere-worlds in the pic on the previous page and the other is from original parts. It was a top runner in it's day and the owner only recently converted it. He even won 2wd stock with the rear motor.
