They are awesome!! I will never forget the RC10 I got as a kid ...we raced hornets and frogs and stuff in a track we made in the woods by my house and when we got a RC10 it was so much better it floated over all the bumps in the track the body stood flat and all you seen was all the A arms moving it was shocking I think all my friends and my jaw dropped that day when we all drove it! It was so advanced for it's time that they still run great today!
Hey buddy, thanks for the memory... Glad I was able to get you to reminisce about the good old days of RC...
The original RC-10T came with gray, hard anodized and teflon (PTFE) coated "Team" shocks and 2 sets of front wheels and tires (narrow and standard width.) Later on, Team Associated released a budget version, sometimes called the RC-10ST for Sport Truck, which substituted some parts for cost savings. The Team shocks, ball bearings, and universal drive shafts were replaced with Gold shocks, brass Oilite bushings, and standard dog bones respectively. Also missing were the narrow front wheels and tires as, like you mentioned, they were banned by ROAR for sanctioned racing. Those narrow front wheels/tires are pretty rare nowadays since they only came with first gen, early release RC-10T kits.
Yes I was thinking about sourcing those narrow front wheels and tires and they were double the price of the ones that I got. I just couldn't see spending that kind of money.
I think I got a set of those skinny wheels let me know if Interested.
@@raymakkouk4697 thanks for reaching out. I’m definitely interested but it also depends on the price. Thanks.
I'll look to make sure I got the pair what do you think is fair for you as to a price?
I have a bunch of old skinny front truck tires and wheels, been thinking about how I can make a modern version somehow. The hell with ROAR 😂
I'm not jealous at all! Nope, not one single bit... GIT!
No need to be Jelly.... TBH... I'm a lil envious of your Optima collection... glad you enjoyed the video... I'm sure you'll eventually get your hands on a Worlds Car...
Great video, brought back lots of memories
. I bought an RC10 Team Car when they were originally released, it replaced the Losi JRX-2 that I had been racing. Those were good times!
Pretty cool collection. I remember Twister motors i used to run their motors back in the day they also had the shop near my house i went there a few times.
my motors were Checkpoint racing. too bad i cannot find the motor brushes anymore.
Great Vid. Thanks for sharing. Im in th Uk and currently on the look out for my first RC 10.
Back in the day In remember watching the British champ, Craig Dresher winnning a national event at my local track. He was ballistic faster than anybody. A popular guy that got a good cheer at the end of the day.
Good Luck. I hope you get your hands on one. Thanks for the comment and support.
Really nice buggies, man! Thanks for sharing!!
I don't know exactly why... but I just feel the STRONG urge to comment:
Dear EBAY sellers, "Cadillac" does NOT mean your RC10 is in "nice shape" ( I see so many listings of RC10s that use "Cadillac" as synonymous with "very nice/complete/etc"... )
Watch this video, and learn where the term came from, and why it is used! Thanks! 👍
Glad you enjoyed the video
I use to race a world's car back in high-school. Ran an Onyx modified motor.
Nice collection buddy! The most iconic RC ever imo. Gotta love the RC10 gold pan!
My first proper radio controlled car was an RC10, which I got secondhand from the U.S.A. back in the late 80s. I still have the chassis pan from that one, as it was a bit special. From what I could find out, it was one of the IFMAR 1:10 Electric Off-Road World Championship cars, as it had been professionally milled down for lightness. That started my love for RC10's, I've raced and used various versions of them until last one I raced which was the Black anodised worlds edition. I still have the MIP four-wheel-drive kit as well, which on its first outing damaged one of the front hubs that was un-available to England from that point on. :D I recently wanted to build a few of them up again, but realised to do so would take in excess of a thousand pounds each, so just tidied up the one I do have and brought it back to looking like it did in the 90s, along with all my other Schumacher cats and a Team Losi XX. With these cars I became Wrigley's champion in the UK for nearly 10 years, so I'm very proud of these cars, but I still have a soft spot for my first RC10.
Wow thats awesome to hear. Glad I was able to get you to reminisce about the good ol days... I've seen pics of the MIP 4 wheel drive conversion kit. That seemed pretty cool. So you were never able to find the hub for that or fix it?
@@RCRetro Nope, after selling me the kit, Eustace Moore replied "if you need spares just buy another kit" which as you might have guessed, didn't go down well. :D Anyway, I'll get round to fabricating the piece out of delrin one day. I still wouldn't mind seeing that puppy go again, as it made a phenomenal four-wheel-drive car. :)
Rc10t team edition had the hard anodized shocks while the sport version has the gold shocks.
Thanks for the clarification.
I have a NIB Cadillac version. It was purchased in Japan in early 90's when it was on clearance and I never built it. A fun fact about the kit I own is that it has stamps of Yokomo on the box as Yokomo was the distributor of Associated products in Japan.
That’s awesome and very interesting. Are you part of the RC Retro Facebook group? Maybe you can post pictures of it on there as I’d like to see that. Or you can message me pics on Instagram too rc_retro.
I submitted a request to join the group and will post some pics once I am admitted to the group.
@@takayatakeuchi3685 just confirmed. Welcome to the group.
Added some pictures there.
That A&L trailing arm kit was the BOMB! Very good quality, and on rough tracks, it was a great setup.
I always wanted an rc10. I traded a skateboard for a gold pan when I was a kid, but never gathered anything else for it
Haha I had an 11-turn twister in my RC-10 back in ‘87. Loved that motor. I have two original rc-10’s now. Love them so much history building it w/ my dad and trying to buy parts for it w/ my moms credit card :)
Awesome collection!
Thanks for the comment and support. I'm going to restore that twister motor. Give it a good cleaning and I have a new label from MCI to throw on it.
i have 2 rc10 cars that i raced on rollerskating floor back in the 80!s .they still work.
Awesome collection! One of these days I will get my hands on one but until then I love seeing them! It takes me right back to drooling over the ads in the magazines back in the with those amazing photos of them and nothing beats the trophy girl ad!!! Thanks for sharing!
You know simple Green is good to clean your tires with as well as it adds traction from my understand.
oh wow I still have 2 RC10's 1 was converted to a truck, I used to race them on weekends back in the late 80's, don't think I've run them since mid 90's.
Great video! In the late 80s - early 90s I was racing off-road buggys and trucks. My RC10 was a gold pan (don't know which stamp) with the 6 gear transmission. It had been modified with the outdrives milled and drilled to reduce rotating mass, and the countergear shaft mounting plate had been "tweaked" for improved gear mesh. Eventually I was dominating stock buggy class and shortly after the 10T was released I converted It! Fun times!
Thanks for the comment and share. If I'm reading this correctly you converted it to a stadium truck? Did you use one of those conversion kits?
@@RCRetro yes, stadium truck. Conversion wasn't available yet. Genuine AE parts from the LHS.
Thanks for the video!
I’m really enjoying the content from your channel. I got back into retro RC just a couple of years ago, picking up my childhood cars and then trying to find those unicorns that we could only read about in the RC rags. I’m looking forward to your RC10 projects as I have similar projects in the works.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you. I"m glad you're enjoying the channel.
Love Blackfoot and The Lunch box
You forgot to mention the original RC10 you gave me when we worked at IS5.(Top Cop).
Thats my OG from back in the day. Which is probably still sitting in that closet in the VOM.... When are you going to get over there and look for it LOL.....?
Excellent vid mate, thx a lot for hocking me up on rc10s 🙈
Great collection going. if looking for parts for the Jeff's Factory works kit. have a ton of short arm parts lying around. Used along with a complete 6 gear, and or possibly an original Lethal Weapon belt drive trans for the trailing arm car. . decent unless going for a shelf queen (bought out a vintage online shop some years ago 17ft uhaul) and had a ton of rc10s stripped them down. have kept what i want. and since you have a truck collection going have 2 rc10t2's getting ready to unload. one could be a decent runner. but not total shelf queens. if interested.
Never seen a body post on the steering bolt like that but it seems to do the trick - nice collection!!!!
Neither have I. Thats why I'm keeping it like that. One of a kind man lol...
Nice collection!!! Thanks for sharing, love all the rc10 stuff, glad your going to run some of them. Looking forward to see them on the racetrack!!! You need an RC10T2 to fill in the gap between the T and T3 :)
I"ve thought about an RC10T2 but for right now I have so many RC projects and have to start focusing on running stuff on the track now that the warmer weather is here.. Perhaps a T2 in the future. Thanks for the comment.
If I only had the foresight to hold on to my RC10-T.
Thats one nice RC10 collection and some great projects. Would be fun to see a race between the rc10 and Triumph :D
Maybe we can make it happen. Good idea.
I’m about to pull the trigger on a gold pan. They definitely command a decent price! Oh well, I’ve wanted one since I was 10. Thinking it’s time to make it happen. Thanks for the informative video!
DO IT! Get one lol... thanks for the comment and support.
@@RCRetro Done! Just bought it! Haha! Wow! Have a great weekend!
Ok, we wait for the restoration vid.
Yes. I have not restored the RC10T yet... I will probably start some time in June. Check out the links in the Description for other RC10 Videos. I do have another RC10T run video on the track. It's not mine. It's my buddy Harry's RC10T.
You know castles brushless motor systems can be used out in just brush systems you could see if one of those could handle that 12t brushed.
This is great, I got a T2 a little while ago but I need to replace the electronics. Any suggestions on brushed esc abs radio?
Fuck yea RC10 video
Awesome collection! I have an RC10T and the re-re worlds you have! I really wish ASC re-re’d the 10T. It’s been 31 years. Granted last year with COVID and lockdowns prob prevented anything from coming out. But it would be great to see it one day soon hopefully!
anyone find it weird that after i own a rc10t3 a xxt and a rc10t this guy buys the same 3? also weird he mentions i gave him wheels and tires for one of his cars but he isnt sharing his box of parts with me 🤔. yeah 30 min of his shelf queens kill me now
Awesome collection! Big fan of team associated, I still have my rc10b3. Hey Amy idea where I can get a replacement rear shock tower?
You best bet is to join one of the many RC10 groups on Facebook. They also have RC10 sales groups. From what I've seen, many people who are into the gold pans also have many other versions of the RC10 up to the modern day stuff. I"m sure some have spare parts they are willing to part with for the right price.
Anyone know if the Jaguar group 24 Bob Tulles RC car is around? I am looking for one. Mike
Id love to have an original A stamp gold pan. Even a re-release gold pan. I have a re-release Worlds edition and i paid about $150usd froma amain in 2014. Ive had people offer me ridiculous money for it, but it's staying in my collection.
Yup don't let it go. As its looking, I highly doubt Team Associated will be rereleasing anything... Thats a keeper!
I am very surprised that "Team Associated"/ Thunder Tiger has not re-released an RC10t truck. I bet they will soon. I am trying to restore an RC10gt truck. The OS Max engine is very hard to get. Thoughts?
I wish they would rerelease the RC10T. We can only hope... As for gas/nitro...TBH I know nothing about those. Thats one area of the vintage world of RC I have not dipped my toe into....
@@RCRetro I have very limited experience with nitro too. However, the RC10GT had a pull start engine. Which makes things even easier. I am actually an electric car guy, but this truck offered something different, and easier too. I do not think that Team Associated will re-release the RC10GT truck. Thoughts?
I'm restoring my old c stamp rc10t. I've read a decent amount about the hydrogen peroxide bath but it seems your results are better. What is your exact process? How long do you leave them out soaking? Thanks
I wound up cleaning the parts up with simple green until perfectly clean. Threw the parts in a large jar fully submerged and left for about 16hrs total in the sun. Look brand new now. *shrugs*
I have the original A&L Factory Works trailing arm graphite chassis and belt transmission plus a few rc10 and rc10t vehicles oh and an Andy’s chassis and A arms
this guy is the ultimate collector. you should have more then 1 minute in a corner
@@tallguygaming409 Isn't the plan to have Joe do garage tours of his collection...? And "how to videos" of the correct way to prune bushes?
Hey buddy, yes you scored that big haul of RC10's. That graphite chassis was mint, wasn't it? Thats a piece right there...
Thats a "Joe Episode" episode right there.. Showing off his RC10 collection..
Cam you please help me find a RC10b3?..... love you channel by the way!
When you say “carbon fiber protector”, what exactly are you referring to? A sticker film? A molded CF piece?
A carbon fiber sticker film just to cover the bottom of the the chassis so that it doesn't get as many scratches.
Help rebuilding an old rc10 gold pan can’t find front bearings or rear wheels I’ve ordered 2.2 rears from j concepts mono pin wheels but the font fit the axels
I did tell you I used to own a B3?
I have a Team Associated NTC 3, single gear, not the 2 speed. My banner on my channel has a photo of it.
Maybe you can help I had a team associated I bought in 94 or 95 it got stolen having a hard time remembering what model I had I have a picture of assembly and I can see black front and rear with black arms but the chassis was the clear yellow greenish chassis you seem to be the guy to figure it out thanks
What? No RC-10DS Dual Sport?
Parts?
well jel - awful uk slang but true
yeah that looks like a phil paint job its ugly as butt hahaha
LOL...
dunno, looks like a lot of RC10s to me. I only ever had one and it was enough
