  • Race the car that changed RC off-road racing forever!
    On December 5th, 1984 the All-American designed Team Associated RC10 was introduced to the RC world. Being the first to take home the gold in both the ROAR National and IFMAR Stock World Championships, the RC10 secured its place as a legend in RC car history. This year (2024) marks the 40th anniversary of the RC10 and we are proud to offer this special limited 40th Anniversary Edition kit. Staying true to the original, this anniversary kit features the same race car technology introduced in the 80s. It’s that innovation that has kept Team Associated on top of the RC car racing world for the past 40 years.

    Bought my RC10 kit #6016 in 1989 at twelve years old. That was the kit with the Yokomo stock class 05 motor, servo wiper throttle and ball-bearings. Installed Futaba electronics and eventually upgraded to a Novak ESC. Even Rit dyed the suspension arms because black was the thing in the newer kits. Of course I sold it sometime in my late teens, doh, but now I can buy another one, yippeee!
