TEAM ASSOCIATED RC10B7 TEAM KIT
Champions By Design
Team Associated has been at the leading edge of 1:10 scale 2WD off road for the last 40 years starting with the original RC10 and are proud to introduce this next generation RC10 to the world--the RC10B7. 40 years has seen a lot of development and changes, with each generation being a step forward from the last. The RC10B7 is no exception, boasting new long-arm suspension geometry, weight-centralized electronics layout, KPI adjustable steering blocks, and increased tunability throughout the whole chassis. These innovations have increased the potential for grip and corner speed, which leads to faster lap times and an overall easier-to-drive feel than the previous generation.
The RC10B7 is the recommended starting kit for those who plan to race on carpet, AstroTurf ®, and some high-grip sealed clay tracks. This kit comes equipped with an all-new gear differential, front and rear anti-roll bars, and an optimized high-grip setup which includes stiffer springs and higher pack shock pistons. As with previous generations, the RC10B7 and RC10B7D feature fully interchangeable parts between the two kits, which allows the user to pick and choose what configuration they want to use depending on track conditions. Both versions come with the same durability, speed, and lineage of a champion that is found in any Team Associated race platform.
Please Note: This vehicle needs extra parts to make it operational, please view the 'Required To Complete' section below.
