Associated RC10GT Richard Saxton Edition 1:10 Gas Truck

Another vintage re-release from Team Associated, this time in the form of the RC10GT Richard Saxton Edition 1:10 2WD Gas Truck.  Originally released in 1993, the RC10GT changed the world of RC Racing by introducing nitro engines into the competitive world of RC Racing.  Amassing countless wins, the RC10GT has forged itself as the most iconic gas truck ever created.  One of the most respected figures in the RC racing, Richard Saxton played a pivotal role in the dominance of the Team Associated RC10GT, the 1:10 scale gas-powered stadium truck that would go down in history as the only undefeated platform in ROAR National Championship competition.  Widely known as “The King”, Saxton’s relationship with the RC10GT began in the early 1990s when gas truck racing was starting to gain popularity.  Team Associated’s RC10GT debuted with a revolutionary design based on the proven RC10 platform, adapted for nitro power.  With its durable chassis, precise handling, and superior suspension geometry, the RC10GT was an instant contender and under the control of Saxton that the truck became unbeatable.

Vision Racing LD3 +3mm front ballstud mounting plate

Vision Racing has introduced this all new billet aluminium +3mm front ballstud mounting plate for the LD3 1:10 2WD Buggy from Schumacher.  This plate allows lower roll center settings without the use of spacers.  Spacers increase the sheer point and give you less ballstud threads engaged, which weakens the front end from those inevitable hard impacts. The mount gives you that structural integrity back with the billet one piece T-7075 design, while removing the need for a nylock nut.
