Default Gold Pan re-release RC10 - RACING

You can build your dream shelfer with the new re-release but I am looking to get people racing the car as a new, stock fun class where it's only skill that'll see you take a win.

My suggestion is 100% stock car for now - if the steering proves just too much of a problem then we can change the rules.

Possibly spec electric combo, ESC and motor all stickered up for the rc10 classic. Not sure if this could be sold with the kits for a good price - or if CML could do something fora very keep price to allow the racing the start it needs. Or indeed I could look into some contacts to see what they could do - but it'd need to be pre-paid I guess.

Remembering the tyres are a bit crap - it's the same for everyone. No changes, to wheelbase mods, no extra shock tower holes drilled. 3-piece wheels, the lot.

If it's 32dp which I thought it was - then possibly also spec the gearing that everyone has to run.

Feel free to give some feedback - I'm in no way affiliated with AE or CML, but I just see a great vintage car that I think would be a very nice spectacle to see racing and possibly not cost too much to run.

I'm sure we'll start running these at oOple events but if other clubs are on the same wave length and we have an agreed set of rules and ideals - then it would make traveling around with your gold tub to other meetings a whole lot easier.

I'd be happy to keep a register of racers wanting to run and for the price of a 1st class envelope to me, I could send out some agreed-upon rules as well as some special decals to show their car is a legit legal vintage racer.
