Team C TC10 carbon fibre bumper support

Team C introduce another option part for the TC10 touring car kit in the form of this carbon fibre bumper support. Machined from 2mm carbon fibre the bumper support is made to replace the stock composite plate with a more sturdy and cooler looking part. It also offers improved support for the front body mounts for better aerodynamics in corners and on the high-speed parts of the track. It is understood that the bumper support comes as a set including two orange anodised aluminium posts to connect the upper plate with the lower bumper plate.

Team C TC02C Evo conversion kit

Following the announcement of the new TC02C Evo 2WD buggy kit, Team C will soon also have a conversion kit for non-Evo TC02C’s available. The set includes a new longer composite chassis, a new transmission case, gear differential, a milled aluminium motor plate, battery plate and several other parts such as a new rear shock tower and bulkhead, to bring the standard buggy to full Evo specifications. The conversion kit is rounded out by a new bodyshell but it lacks the rear anti-roll bar that comes with the full-blown kit.

MIP TC02 & TC02T 17.5 Pucks drive systems

Team C’s TC02 2W buggy and TC02T stadium truck are the latest vehicles to receive MIP’s Pucks drive systems treatment. Both sets are of the 17.5 specification, meaning they are specially designed for stock class racing as they include lightweight aluminium C-CVD driveshafts and aluminium outdrives making them ideal for spec racing due to the lower weight and rotational mass compared to the standard steel items. Included with the drive systems also come the name giving Pucks drive pin cushions, that make for a smoother and easier to maintain drivetrain, as well as steel wheel axles and new thrust races.

Updated Team C TC02C buggy coming?

Team C recently revitalised the TC02C 4-gear mid motor buggy with the introduction of a gear differential conversion kit and now the proactive Asian company shows a first image of a TC02C “Evo” bodyshell. It is understood that many Team C team drivers requested a more “conventional” mid motor buggy as the company’s TM2 in-line mid motor buggy excels on very high grip surfaces but the ever present torque steering, due to its longitudinally mounted motor, gives the buggy a life of its own on medium-bite tracks and this is where the TC02C (Evo) buggy would kick in. Previously the Evo range marked the hop-up variants of existing buggies so you can expect the TC02C Evo to sport a variety of performance and durability enhancing options. We bring you more information on what appears to be Team C’s next project as soon as they become available.

Team C TM4 aluminium steering link plate

New from Team C Racing and made for the TM4 4WD buggy is this aluminium Ackermann steering link plate. Designed to replace the kit’s plastic link with a more rigid and durable part, the plate not only keeps the ballstuds held in place more securely but it also improves steering reaction by eliminating the flex of the stock part. The link is machined from high-quality aluminium and comes orange anodised to match the remainder of the buggy’s alloy parts.
