Here is an album.
Team Associated B6 with Reedy 800 ESC and Reedy 13.5 Motor.
Moved to Hawaii about a year ago, and finally got my RC stuff shipped out. There is no 1/10 scale racing here unfortunately, however lots beaches.

Are all the 1:10 on- and off-road tracks you can find via Google out of business by now?

Mind the salt; I ran a beach the other day, rinsed it off with fresh water, chucked it in the boot, rust everywhere that night. Bugger.

Thanks, that has been my biggest fear. I have ordered stainless screw kits for all my vehicles. I came from Nevada, where rust was never an issue.

I live in FL, whole state is sand. When i had my sc10 truck, spray wd40 and wipe off. Works out pretty good getting the sand, then just wash off with water. Worked okay for most part. Never got it 100% also never had enough time to go threw it all. Use a air hose to blast away any bits to.

Stainless screws are on my list. I’m going to wait though, I reckon what I have will hold up until after May, at which point I’m planning a bit of an overhaul anyway so I can add bearings etc.
Take care of the motor and gears though. I had to clean rust off my pinion, haven’t had the balls to open much more of the drivetrain.

or you could live where there are no tracks or beaches.. parking lots,ballfields and construction lots are our tracks.

Have you run it yet? I built a World’s car RC10 with a black box 1000 and 8.5T motor. I haven’t run it yet. I was worried about it being slow because of the 2S limit.
I have run it a few times. But that was on a clay track about a year ago. The 13.5 isn't crazy, but very fun. Not sure how it will be for bashing.
