Hello from France

Hello RC10 fans.
My name is Vincent Leclerc, I live in France near Perpignan, almost at the Spanish border.
I started the RC car in 1980, with a Stock car Mardave.

Then a copy of SG Futura made at the technical school.

Then a Bullit from MRC.

And to finish with the nitro, a Presto 4x4 from Garbo.

All sold...
In 1990 I bought an RC10CE, did some races for 2 years, then stored in the garage.
I have just found it, dusty, and I want to restart it. I will post photos during the work on the buggy.

Bienvenue Vincent - we have at least a few vintage cars in common it seems (hint: I've never owned anything Mardave :wink: )

really awesome that you found your very own RC10 from back in the days, this is absolutely priceless!

a+

Hi Vincent - am loving the pictures of your old cars, especially the Mardaves.

We have a summer home in Carcassonne which isn't exactly a million miles away from Perpignan. We head down that way occasionally via Narbonne and sometimes to Argeles also. There is a huge off-road track just by Carcassonne airport should you ever fancy giving that CE a run-out.
