The wing provides more rotation in slow corners while improving stability in fast corners due to its reduced weight. It is made of high quality 1.0mm lexan and while not pre-cut it does come with the lines for easy cutting. Each wing is made up of 2 parts, the main wing and the central part. The central part helps to increase downforce while reinforcing the main wing. Each pack contains two full wings.

Team Associated 13mm Truck Shocks & Springs

Team Associated has released the option for RC10T6.2 and RC10SC6.2 owners to upgrade to 13mmm shocks. Take advantage of the 13mm shock technology from the RC10B6.4 buggy that offers a superior ride for bumps and jumps. The larger 13mm-bore piston allows you to run lighter oils to get the low-speed feeling of a soft shock, but with more pack as you take off and land your jumps. This translates to a truck that soaks up the bumps in and out of corners but packs up in the high-speed landings to give you the feeling of landing on a pillow. The 13mm X 36mm shock body is also available in a genuine FOX Kashima Coat version with AE offering a range of 54mm truck front springs and 72mm truck rear springs for the upgrade.

JConcepts P2 body for B6.4

JConcepts has released the P2 for the Team Associated B6 platform and describes their latest body as ‘the meanest, nastiest thing out for 1/10th buggy racing’. The Punisher 2 separates itself from the rest of the bodies on the market with its distinctive styling. The S2 and F2 body designs have created their own path of success on dirt, carpet, and Astroturf with class leading success, now, the P2, will carve its own. The P2 concentrates on performance with riveting details including raised nose / hood, taller cab and rear-end force features. The side-pods are once again JC chamfered to provide that legendary look and the secondary window screams JConcepts styling. The cab drops off quickly and runs deep toward the rear giving plenty of drift to the newly added winglets. The tall, rear fin stabilizer acts as a vane to keep the buggy tracking in the proper direction while also maintaining a rigid roof-line even with light-weight materials. The package arrives complete with, two, Carpet, Turf, and Dirt wings used routinely by Ryan Maifield, Spencer Rivkin, and Dakotah Phend. Included window masks make painting quick and easy and JConcepts decal sheet allows detailing to look sharp and noticeable.

Factory Team Vertical Ballstud Mount Set

Team Associated’s Factory Team brand has released Vertical Ballstud Mounts for the RC10B74 series cars, including the B74.2 and B74.2D. These vertical ballstud mounts increase the tunability of the rear camber link, allowing for lower ballstud positions to be used as well as a further outward ballstud position. These pieces mount directly to the tower included in the kit. The intent of these mounts is to allow drivers more versatility than what is available on the kit tower, particularly regarding mounting the inner rear ballstud, which affects the roll center and camber gain of the car. The extent of the available adjustment range will depend on multiple factors such as differential height, hub height, link length, and more.
