FLASHBACK FRIDAY: VHS RC History

Before youtube existed, some brands and companies went as far as to make VHS tapes and how-to videos. Check out some of the history on this week's Flashback Friday.

If you could take anything positively from the last two or three months, it would be that our hobby's top professionals took some extra time to create some awesome how-to videos and even provided some fun rc footage away from the track.

This isn't a new concept but in the late 90's the medium was a bit different. Team Associated released a couple of different VHS tapes on a variety of different topics. They released a tape with Richard Saxton's tuning tips and a bunch of extra information from 'The King.'

The other video we found still on the AE site was the '96 racing footage video. Click Here:
