Default Back with an RC10

Well after 6506 days, or 17 years, 9 months and 23 days later, I have finally turned a wheel on an RC10.

The car has been put together as close to the CE car I had around 1989/90 when I fitted the then new Stealth box, except for using the modern electrics for ease and convenience. Still have a few things I would like to do like replacing the black plastic parts for white, U/Js, gold shock caps, some proper wheels and earlier steering bellcranks.

Just need some vintage racing now

Thanks guys, can't wait till get it out on a track. And then thoughts will turn to hopefully doing an old Yokomo or JRX2

The body is a Proline Vision which I actually used back in the day on my worlds car, sadly no longer available. I was very lucky to get this one back after all these years.

Changed the shell over and ran a few packs around Kidderminster track today. Must say the handling of the car was better than expected and was a joy to drive.
