RC10 2025 METALLIC EDITION KIT - Pre-order $699.99
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 2WD World Championships, the RC10 secured its place as a legend in RC car history. This year (2025) marks the 41st anniversary of the RC10 and we are proud to offer this special limited 2025 Metallic 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 41 years.
THE TEAM DOES IT IN THE DIRTA RACE CAR, NOT A TOY. Sure, you’ve heard that before. But Team Associated designs and engineers model RACE cars.
RACE-WINNING ENGINEERING
For maximum traction, the RC10 suspension is damped by long throw, fluid-filled racing shocks, using machined alloy cylinders and drill blank shafts for silky smooth action.
Simulated gold plating on competition modular wheels
True gold anodized factory chassis etched with iconic AE logo and Team Associated Race font!
RACE-WINNING DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE
The RC10 started as the vision of Team Associated’s founder Roger Curtis (RC) and became one of the most iconic RC cars in history.
In celebration of the 41st anniversary of the original RC10, we are proud to bring to you the RC10 2025 Metallic Edition kit, a faithful reproduction of Roger’s world championship-winning design that changed the world of RC off road racing forever.

The design and construction of the RC10 is totally unique to electric off-road cars, featuring a rigid alloy monocoque tub with fully adjustable suspension. Included are Associated’s custom coil-over aluminum racing shocks, VariLok differential and modular 3-piece clamping wheels.
Engineered for easy assembly and maintenance, the RC10 is also easy to drive over all kinds of terrain. The rugged nylon suspension and alloy tub are tough enough to handle bumps and crashes of beginners as well as intense wheel-to-wheel action.
So buckle up and go off-road racing with the Team. The Associated RC10 2025 Metallic Edition is ready to take on the competition.
Full race rear suspension includes durable dog bone and stub axle drivetrain with pinned modular wheels. Quick release knockoff design provides fast, accurate alignment. Low profile gearbox uses VariLok adjustable diff and is protected by an integrated motor/heat sink.
Independent suspension with coil-over shocks help smooth out the bumps. Precision molded nylon suspension components can be easily custom color dyed. A-Arm/Ball joint design permits static camber, camber rise, caster, ride height and spring rate tuning to suit every type of track.
