Expect more interesting photos when the show opens. ;)

oh damn, really excited by this !! I have my own hopes about what will be shown, but am excited with whatever will be presented ! :woot::thumbsup:

Oh, and I would be sure disppointed if it's an SC10B with original style paintjob ! But that's just me :)

Car confirmed.

Will look identical to original but updated idler gear, lipo ready and shocks wont leak.

They had to retool the chassis which cliff said was not easy or cheap.

Available within 60 days.

Dan

good news !!!

can't blame AE to jump on the re-release bandwagon... at least we'll have nice re-releases :) i'm sure they'll do it better like always

very tempting...

will it be as a kit, or rather RTR ?

Well, I hoped but never really believed:thumbsup:

Guess I'd better sell something....

Rob

I know it's wrong but keepin mine as a shelf queen and I've got a Demon Pro-king to go in it :thumbsup:

!!!!!!! F***in' get in!!!!! :woot:

I've just ruined a set of underpants!....

ME too mate ! LOL

Re-release comes with updated 6 gear gearbox (so no slipper) and the bulkhead modified to fit a lipo in there. Stealth gearbox will come later.

Are you putting this up here as a rumor or is this also confirmed? :eh?:

Also, how limited is limited, and at what price are they going to sell these?

Anyway, this is AWESOME! Fingers crossed that releaseis not too limited and in time for the oOple Invernational? :lol:

I'm here now....100% fact

I put on rc10talk (wydraz)

Upgraded idler gear in 6 gear trans with chassis drilled for Stealth which will come later.

Rear bulkhead modded to fit lipo.

Revised shocks which look the same as golds but dont leak.

Cool. ;)

It's true.............. doesn't make it not stupid.

Can't wait to see all the people that struggle with these modern cars whose fit and finish fit like a glove - try and tackle a 6-gear tranny. Should be a hoot listening to all the whining. :woot:

Is that the gears or the people? !
Can't believe they're actually doing it

At least these days Associated won't expect you to deburr every gear with a needle file. The only kit I've ever built that needed a vice, hammer and pump pliers to assemble.:eh?:
The real fun would be if they include the original instructions.:lol:

Just met the man himself Roger Curtis. He signed 2 cards for me....says he has no idea why the buggy is so popular and he wouldn't have rereleased it! Spoke with him and his wife for a long time. Lovely couple.

Wondering what to do in Long Beach CA tonight.....the hooters stand representatives were very persuasive. ...

Both.

:woot::D

Sorry Dan, excuse my pig ignorance but I'm assuming he's the original designer?
If so, according to your comments, what a humble legend! He only completely re-defined an entire industry!

(Great to see what you look like too, not in that way :wub
Good lookin' bloke,.. that Roger. :D)

Cheers for this mega exclusive Dan and basically count the number of us on here and pre-order that many, lol

Roger Curtis is the man who founded and later co-owned Associated Electrics with Gene Husting. Roger designed al Associateds early cars including the RC10. A true legend in r/c.

He also sold Associated to Thunder Tiger when he retired, but if Thunder Tiger didn't own Associated we wouldn't be getting the rerelease.:eh?:

Terry beat me to it. Roger is a legend but was so humble to talk to almost like he was just saying its just an rc car why all the hype....I was surprised! I said to him its arguably the most iconic and revolutionary car in the history of rc.

All the guys were very friendly and I'm really glad I met them ;)

Nicely machined stealth casing.

No worries Dan, is it the chap on rc10talk that just did a short run of them?

VERY nice work that :wub Ordered my car today, will have it by the end of the month !!! Not sure what paint yet but will be old school. What paint scheme are people going with ????

I think its Romulus that did those parts Pete?
