About the RC10 4WD Team Car Kit

Born from Racing History

The RC10 name carries the legacy of Team Associated’s groundbreaking innovation that revolutionized off-road RC racing. First introduced in the 1980s and crowned by Jay Halsey’s World Championship win, the RC10 quickly became a symbol of precision, durability, and performance. While the original never saw a full 4WD production version, that dream has finally been realized with the RC10 4WD Team Car — a faithful continuation of the RC10’s racing heritage, built with the same passion that made it legendary.

True 4WD Evolution

This reimagined version of the RC10 transforms the iconic 2WD platform into a full-fledged 4WD race machine. Drawing inspiration from modern Team Associated engineering — like the B74 series — it delivers smooth power transfer, improved traction, and balanced handling across any off-road surface. With genuine Team Associated components throughout, it’s a complete 4WD kit straight out of the box — no conversion kits or aftermarket parts required.

Modernized Vintage Engineering

Beneath the classic styling lies updated technology for modern performance. The black anodized 6061-T6 aluminum monocoque chassis, carbon fiber rear brace, and precision ball bearings ensure strength and smoothness, while the new 4WD-specific drivetrain with CVA shafts and a center belt system maximizes efficiency. Fully adjustable suspension and race-proven Stealth™ transmissions give today’s racers vintage style with cutting-edge performance.

About the RC10 '89 Stealth Car

Masami Hirosaka

Masami Hirosaka is one of the most celebrated RC drivers in the history of the sport, widely regarded as a legend in competitive RC racing. With 14 IFMAR World Championships to his name, his dominance throughout the 1980s and 1990s set the gold standard for professional RC competition. Known for his technical precision and unmatched consistency, Masami's influence helped shape modern racing techniques and vehicle development, especially through his long-standing relationship with Team Associated.

Prototype

The RC10 '89 Stealth Car Masami Edition pays tribute to the legendary prototype driven by Masami Hirosaka to victory at the 1989 IFMAR World Championships in Australia. This unique vehicle, built around Team Associated's elusive Stealth transmission and lightweight design, was a one-of-a-kind machine never released to the public—until now. Recreated with precision, this special edition kit captures the legacy of one of RC racing's most iconic cars and celebrates Masami's unmatched dominance, which continued with another Stealth victory at the 1991 Worlds in Detroit, Michigan.
