Team Associated RC10 TC7.2 Factory Team 1/10 Scale 4WD Electric On-Road Touring Car Kit

Overview

The Team Associated RC10 TC7.2 Factory Team Kit stands out in the world of competitive touring car racing due to its precision engineering and innovation. Designed with the serious racer in mind, the TC7.2 incorporates cutting-edge features that elevate its performance to the highest levels. As the on-road market advances at an ever-increasing rate, Area 51's engineers ensured that the TC7.2 exceeds expectations with a host of new components and features necessary to keep you on top.

A successor to the TC7.1, the TC7.2 maintains the proven suspension geometry while adding refinement to chassis balance and flex characteristics necessary for today's racing classes. The centrally positioned IFM (Inline Flex Mount) motor mount adds several mounting configurations to help fine-tune chassis flex to the racing surface, with an integral mounting position for an optional chassis pitch control system (PCS). The TC7.2 Factory Team gives you everything you need to race at the highest level.

Key Features
