Greetings!
Thanks for adding me. I dug out my original RC10 (~1986) that I raced back in the day. I restored it over the summer and plan to race it at this year's Vintage Off-Road Nationals at R/C Excitement.

Ah, I didn't realize you were on rc10talk. I was the guy who told you I found the aluminum top of your blown up cap. Hope you had a good time even with the breakage!

Welcome! I can't bear to race my handed-down-by-Dad RC10 for the fear of breaking the original parts, as you found out. :?
Nothing beats an RC10 for vintage cool!
