Get ready to unleash the power of the Stealth Gearbox and write your own chapter in RC racing history with the Team Associated RC10T Classic.
The Team Associated RC10T is the fastest and most reliable race truck available today, as it was developed by the same engineers who produced nine World Champions.
Like all Associated RC race cars, the RC10T was thoroughly tested, refined and competition tested before its final development. Although our drivers have no truck racing experience, they have competed against all competitors from coast to coast to make sure your RC10T is a winner. At the Florida Winter Championship, the RC10Ts took first and second place out of 450 competitors.
Unlike other truck and RC10 conversion kits, no compromises were made with the RC10T. Working closely with the latest ROAR off-road truck racing specifications, our R&D team has developed a purpose-built machine with the responsiveness and handling that serious racers expect.
For maximum cornering speeds, the RC10T's track width has been widened front and rear. The wheelbase has been extended and a special, narrow bulkhead improves stability at high speeds. To accommodate the larger tires and longer suspension travel, the design of the shock towers was also crucial.
The RC10T's body is also part of the winning combination. It is deep-drawn, lightweight and protects the shock towers.
The result is predictably stunning. With its highly efficient stealth transmission, lightweight chassis and suspension, racing shocks and grippy rubber, the RC10T delivers explosive performance, even with standard-class motors and batteries.
THE RC10T. CHAMPIONSHIP-WINNING TECHNOLOGY.
The Truck category of off-road competition presents unique chassis, suspension and overall design requirements. Team Associated's RC10T benefits from the race-proven engineering of our 2-time World Champion RC10. In fact, the RC10T shares only the aluminum monocoque tub and racing shocks of the legendary RC10.
The RC10T prototypes proved to be extremely competitive, taking first and second place at the 1991 Winter Championships in Florida. Unique features, all incorporated into RC10T production, include a long wheelbase and super-wide track to optimize Truck class regulations. The wishbones are precision-formed and reinforced from nylon, making them exceptionally strong yet very lightweight. The four-wheel independent suspension, shocks and wheel mounts also allow for extremely long wheel travel.
Truck racing wheels and tires were also developed specifically for the RC10T. This re-release RC10T comes with standard wide rear tires and the famously banned narrow front tires. All wheels are a lightweight, 3-piece modular design, molded perfectly concentrically in new nylon. The narrow front tires were developed to the existing ROAR Truck Class rules of the era and used on the winning prototype RC10Ts.
