Team Associated RC10 Jay Halsey Edition Kit

In celebration of the 40th anniversary of the original RC10, Team Associated has announced the RC10 Classic Jay Halsey Edition kit, a faithful reproduction of Jay’s world championship-winning car that changed the world of RC off road racing forever. Only eight months after it’s release on July 11, 1985, the legendary RC10 driven by Jammin’ Jay Halsey claimed victory as the first IFMAR 2WD Stock World Champion. It was at this inaugural edition of the IFMAR 1:10 Electric Off-Road World Championships in Del Mar California where history was made. At the time Jay didn’t know how important the race was and how legendary the buggy he drove would become. Looking back, he now realises the impact it made in RC history; not only for Team Associated, but for himself as well. Racing for Team Associated allowed him to travel the world attending different races. It’s what helped him get where he is today, working in the television and film industry. Now you can own a piece of that history with this very first ever kit release of that famous buggy and build a replica of that legendary worlds-winning paint scheme you remember as a kid.

JConcepts Droop Gauge & Blocks

JConcepts has released a new Droop Gauge & Droop Blocks for both 1:8 & 1:10 use. With droop one of the most important adjustments on an RC vehicle, JConcepts set out to create a versatile yet accurate system to add to their lineup. Spencer Rivkin was heavily involved in this project, pushing the idea as a necessary accessory from the JC team. Going back to his days working with mentor Brian Kinwald, Spencer was taught to adjust droop by measuring the axle height relative to the bottom of the chassis. The blocks are built at 36mm in height for 1:8 Offroad racing, and 30mm is available by rotating the block 90 degrees for 1:10 racing. The all-aluminium machined blocks are both tall and lightweight, designed to fit into the larger compartments of a racer’s toolbox. The black anodised item is highlighted with an attached blue anodised piece, laser-etched and marked for height convenience. The blocks are ineffective without a proper measuring device, and the JConcepts droop gauge is labeled in multiple ways to suit the scale of the offroad vehicle.
