Hara Factory Build RC10 Brian Kinwald Edition

While we have become used to weekly RC10 ‘Special Edition’ releases from Team Associated, with the upcoming Team Associated Vintage Championships is Las Vegas, RC Legend Atsushi Hara has built his very own ‘Hara Purple’ Brian Kinwald Edition for the race. In recent years the onroad and offroad World Champion, who is now a brand ambassador for Team Cayote, has leveraged his ‘Hara Purple’ with a number of product deals and limited edition kit releases. Along with his Yeah Racing Momentum signature tool series, the Japanese driver has endorsed Hara Edition Touring Car kits with Australian touring car manufacturer RC Maker and Hong Kong’s RC Xpress to coincide with representing these brands at legendary TITC race in Bangkok, Thailand. He also raced a Schumacher Mi9 at the 2025 Electric Singapore International Challenge (eSIC) which had received the ‘Hara Edition’ treatment. This is all possible as Hara has a friend in the anodising industry who is able to get his trademark purple done on very limited numbers of parts. The 2026 Team Associated Vintage Championships takes place from September 2-7th at the The Orleans Hotel and Casino.

Avid RC B7 MachLite Idler Gear

New from Avid Racing Concepts comes the MachLite Idler Gear for the Team Associated RC10B7 Buggy. It has been produced for stock and spec racers for whom every gram counts when it comes to the drivetrain. They have lightened the design and narrowed the gear face from 10mm to just 6mm. The result is a 3.34 gram gear that is 24% lighter than the kit gear with less rotating mass and inertia for quicker drivetrain response. They also machined it perfectly true to give you smooth and consistent rotation and the larger 54T design means there is still plenty of strength for Modified racing.
