The first big change from the 80's was longer arms and a narrower chassis. Then they went to composite over alum chassis. Now we are at alum chassis again and using bigger shocks and longer chassis. The construction of the cars is miles better too. The nylon that the orig rc10 used was soft as butter. But i do agree, I think they are stuck moving forward in major ways. LIPO and brushless was the biggest change from 2000 to present. Not they just throw bling at us and we eat it up, lol.

That's kinda why I was surprised people were disappointed with the lack of a redesign, nothing has improved enough to call for a redesign. |

The Team Car with its graphite chassis and stealth tranny looked pretty badass back in the day.
