Team Associated RC10T6.1 Team Kit stadium truck

Following a first teaser image released on social media, Team Associated have officially introduced the long-awaited T6.1 Team Kit 1/10th 2WD stadium truck. Based on AE’ B6.1 platform, the RC10T6.1 Team Kit represents the next step in the evolution for competitive truck racing. The RC10T6.1 Team Kit began life with the many great advantages already learned through the development of the RC10B6.1. Armed with extensive feedback from racers, the engineers behind the doors of Team Associated’s Area 51 set off to design the ultimate truck chassis utilising every advantage possible. Like the RC10B6.1, the RC10T6.1 has new features, such as an easy-access differential with height adjustment, and an all-new slipper assembly. Also part of the package is a layback Stealth transmission for a lower and more rearward centre of gravity, aluminium C and D mounts as well as a Pro-Line Enforcer body shell. The kit is set for a release in April.
