Team Associated RC10 Retro 80s Ultra Rider 2WD
For this week’s Team Associated release the American manufacturer gives us the RC10 Ultra Rider 2WD which they say ‘isn’t just a tribute’ but ‘a high-performance celebration of engineering that defined a decade.’ Combining the iconic aesthetics of the 1980s with modern Team Associated precision, the RC10 Ultra Rider 2WD is built for those who remember the thrill of the first dirt jump and those ready to experience it for the first time. At the heart of the RC10 Ultra Rider 2WD is the legendary front front and rear trailing arm suspension. This unique design captures the authentic look and feel of the era’s most innovative race cars and provides a nostalgic driving experience. AE say it ‘wouldn’t be a classic without the bling’ and their race-proven, oil-filled shocks offer smooth damping. With fully independent front and rear suspension geometry, the RC10 Ultra Rider 2WD soaks up bumps and sticks the landings with the poise of a modern champion. From the aggressive stance to the sleek, period-correct body lines, every inch of the Ultra Rider is designed to turn heads and stir up memories of backyard battles and local track glory.
