TQ'ing all four rounds of qualifying, Team Associated's RC8T Factory
Team kit took first place at the 2009 ROAR Nationals! Driven by Ryan
Maifield and powered by the Reedy 121VR .21 competition engine, the RC8T
performed as it was designed to and brought home the big win!
Inspired by this achievement, Associated is proud to introduce the RC8T
Factory Team Championship Edition Kit. The RC8T CE kit has added many
new features to the original RC8T that make it an even more potent race
machine. Improved strength, durability, rough track handling and overall
performance are all qualities built into the RC8T CE making it the most
competitive Team Associated truggy to date.
