    I believe RCCA magazine did an article about the car and the movie in 1988. They modified a few RC10s and used a 1963 Parma body. The technical advisor and 'stunt driver' was a member of Team Associated. The legendary, Jammin' Jay Harris.

I heard the Associated RC 10 was used which would make sense due to the metal chassis for the stunts. All the other manufacturers were using plastic/polymer platforms. One of the most expensive models at the time.
