This issue was a soul searching, character building, nightmare. I though we’d get past the COVID issues from the last issue but it didn’t happen. But good news, this issue is out and we’ve upgrade a few things to get back on track and continue the magazine into the future. What’s in this issue? Features […]
2020 was a nightmare, and it looks like we screwed up the start of 2021…at least for us. This issue comes late unless you just subscribed…then it’s on time. Inside you’ll find our review of the amazing Element RC Builders Edition GateKeeper. Sure we technically ran it almost a year ago, but it might be […]
Many have been stuck inside for months, or you’re out partying like it’s 1999. Either way, a good RC read is always satisfying. In this issue, we’ve got some strange reviews. One of the Comical Tamiya Avante which is now AWD! Arrma has been batting 1,000 with some sick releases and we finally got our […]
Velocity RC Cars Magazine Issue 40 – VRC_040 It’s summer, or is it spring. Life has been hard on this planet for some, but somehow we still make a magazine. What’s the best part of this issue? No, it’s not the rad reviews, or the servo article…sure it might be the paint article we ran […]
“We’ll do it live!” We have no script, no ideas, and just babble about RC cars every Monday at 5:30pm. Derek, Jeff, Peter and some special guests get together, drink a beer, and discuss over 30 years of being in the RC world. Missed a show? Don’t worry. You can rewatch the live stream on […]

My racing roots go back to the original gold tub RC10, so when the latest Worlds edition came to the office for testing, I snatched that sucker up. Team Associated has been a dominant force since the beginning of time, and the ...
Another Wednesday in the books. It’s garbage day here at the VRC main office (doesn’t it feel like every day is garbage day?). What did we do today? We took our new 10mm fish-eye lens and hit the track for a photo s...
Shock shafts are delicate and need to be treated that way. Gouges and scratches are your biggest concern as they will not only rough up the smooth stroke, but they can damage your o-rings causing oil leaks and constant maintena...
Tamiya bodies are beautiful! It seems that everything their mold maker touches turns into miniature art. Their bodies are far superior to anything within the industry when it comes to detail. But, sometimes this attention to de...
Derek visited MIP the other day and hung out with RC legend Eustace Moore Jr. to talk about their new Bypass1 shock piston technology. This dude is smart! Listen to the interview and learn a bunch about rc car suspension. www.y...
Our booth design team for RCX (Derek on the way to the show at a party store) found this amazing cardboard cowboy and thought it would fit into the booth theme nicely. The first disturbing part was that his crotchial area was a...
