THE FIRST 2WD OFF ROAD WORLD WINNER!
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 realizes 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. So get the winning edge and build your very own RC10 Jay Halsey Edition buggy!
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 2WD 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 “Jammin” Jay Halsey Edition kit. Staying true to the world champion winning buggy, this kit features the same race car technology introduced in the 80s along with the same upgrades Jay ran at the first IFMAR Worlds in Del Mar California. It was this race along with many others that helped launch Jay’s career in the television and film industry.
