New here

Post by toykilla »

I pulled out my old RC10 World's Car and decided I wanted to play with it so a quick internet search landed me at this website. I had no idea people were so big into the restoring of old RC's. And guess what? I now have the itch. I can see the money flying out of my pocket now. But that's OK.

Anyways I used to be pretty big into the RC scene about 13+ years ago. I am now kicking myself for selling my stuff. I had an original RC10T with the complete RPM conversion (chassis, arms, etc..), an almost new RC10T2 that I raced for awhile before leaving the hobby. I kept the Worlds car though so at least I have a starting point. It is kind of sad to see some of my favorite companies are no longer around (Andys, Dahms, etc.)

I guess let the searching for parts and cars begin. I need a new aluminum tub for it and i see that is going to be hard to come by.

I will be poking around the site and asking questions for awhile..
