Sorry for the delay guys I have been abit busy with work and sorting my v12 out for my midweek club.

This is a video of my V10 going round my old club before we moved to a bigger hall.
The car is running the original v10 soft tyres all round, 27t stock on 7.4v cells and is totally stock except for the anodised blue chassis that I bought from mardave when Wes was running it.

This is with the shell off but the wheels on it are just for transporting it around so the foams dont get flat spots.

I have included the image direct links as the HTML doesnt seem to want to work.

Yes the V10 has a wider rear axle and the wishbones are the same just abit larger.
The diff is the same unit and outdrive as the v12 diff which came from the v10.
You can use the v12 wishbones by making a butterfly that mounts on top of the chassis but is wider with the correct hole spacing but you lose abit of front ride height but it depends how thick you make the butterfly.

Mardave dont have axles etc, I was after spares for ages.

They are meant to be re-releasing the V10 though. So hopefully we will get some spares. I would think they might go for a FRP chassis, and new suspension front plate like the CE edition.

Nice blue chassis, Mine is the std yellow one.

I have foams on mine, Where did you get the rubber wheels from?

The rubber wheels are the original wheels but with rubber tyres glued on and balanced.
I got a shed load of wheels from Lee when he sold mardave as he had boxes of v10 spares and asked if I wanted to take them off his hands which I did : )
I then ebayed alot of the stuff with my other v10 chassis I had which was a red anodised chassis with around 40 sets of wheels and tyres alot of body mounts and wishbones. Got very little for it all really but keep running out of space for my gear.

so my mardave v10 came yesterday and my what a mess it was dont think the guy had ever cleaned it,it took abit of cleaning and sand paper to get the old glue off the chassis and the paint off the under side but it all came off.
the rear diff is nice and smooth and has bearings on the rear axle (which is nice and straight) no broken parts either thank god.
just fitted a shell i bought off another forum which is 200mm wide think a 190mm would be more suitable though.

also the manual i promised will be put up as soon as i find my printer cable ive tryed downloading the software for my printer but didnt have any luck with it.

pics will be added shortly when my camera has charged
