Overview
The Team Associated RC10DS Dual Sport Kit with Rally Body brings real racing action and performance to less-than-ideal track conditions that RC drivers frequently encounter. At Team Associated, parking lot racing doesn't mean a car that handles like a shopping cart—the RC10DS was engineered to deliver competitive performance on rough asphalt, parking lots, cul-de-sacs, and any hard surface where traditional pan cars struggle. This is RC racing freedom for the real world.
Built around the legendary RC10 aluminum alloy tub chassis—one of the most enduring and successful designs in RC history—the Dual Sport features a fully independent 4-wheel suspension system brilliantly mated to the World Champion Stealth transmission. Computer-designed, race-tuned suspension geometry and semi-pneumatic tires that hook up on almost any hard surface let the RC10DS race where most pan cars can't even run.
