  • When you want the best and money isn't a factor, you turn to TRICKBITS and the exclusive YZ10R and commission a car.
    It's an exclusive club with just 27 units in existence, yes you read that correctly, only 27 exist as I type this video description. How do I know, well the chassis serial number and paperwork for my very own kit are adorned with the SN number 0027. Not only am I fortunate enough to receive such a rare RC race car, but the owner and founder Alby Smith personally delivered it to me this week at RCKicks HQ. This gave me the incredible opportunity to sit down with Alby and discuss what it’s really like to produce such unique artisan products. His passion for RC is obvious and it has to be when you stop and think about just what it takes to get to this point. Attempting to produce any RC car at all is something most never achieve, but to try and produce an extremely high-quality, UK-manufactured vintage YZ10 inspired race buggy that also performs to the highest levels of vintage racing and even modern racing! Well, that really is setting yourself a monumental challenge. Why would anyone put themselves through such an ordeal, let's ask him and find out.

    Ah mate that is an awesome bit of kit. Really looking forward to your build of this ! The interview with Alby was also very enlightening as to his passion for this kit and his eye for both detail and functionality.
    All we need know is for him to go get 400 tonnes of clay and rebuild Taunton race track where we used to race with him and his lads !.
    Enjoy it I know you will !

      Absolutely fantastic when raced. I would love to be able to say it is all down to the YZ10R, however much of the car success is down to the drivers.
      That said, the YZ10R responds well to setup changes and steering input on track, jumps far better than the standard YZ10’s and is able to manage the power of low wind motors that other vintage struggle with. Without this, it would simply be a very ordinary car..

    Beautiful kit. I’d love to see Alby design and build something all brand new that’s not loosely based on something from the past. For something less complicated maybe try 2WD first. It’s crazy how similar a B7, LD3 and SO 2.0 are. Given his re-engineering background it would be interesting to see something truly brand new in the 2WD space

    • @AlbySmith-q6r
      @AlbySmith-q6r 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      To old🥴 I also need to believe in what I am doing. I absolutely love the 95 car, so this is a passion project for me. It is also a travesty that the original cars are not raced because of their value and lack of spare parts. Now we have made these parts for the YZ10R, and YZ10.

      @@AlbySmith-q6r thanks for the reply! This kit looks like a labor (labour) of love. I think the same can be said with the RC10 40th Anniversary kit. When AE did their last re-re the market really wasn’t as ripe for re-re’s. 80’s kids are now approaching 50years old and some of us want something to do. For Associated not to be all over doing spare parts really stinks, but it’s nice to have FanRC making parts at a reasonable cost. You are so right that 3D printing has come a long way. I wish the average consumer understood how to distinguish though. I recently bought a bumper for a classic RC10 that was a copy of the RPM bumper. When I received it the silly thing crumbled like one of the Italian coffee wafers.

      As they've said all along it isn't for everyone, but for others they see the value and appeal in owning one..... It's all relative, people will spend £1000's on gold speaker cables when their hearing isn't good enough to notice the difference but if it's what they want then who are we to say it's not worth it?
