Intro: TC4

TC4 Team kit shownTeam Associated’s revolutionary TC3 set the benchmark for touring car performance and quickly became the choice of winning racers all over the world. The TC3's race-proven shaft-drive design captured many national and international championships in the past few years, and has spawned numerous imitations. Now the Team is proud to introduce the next generation RC10TC4 Touring Car… the refinement of the proven TC3 racing platform, optimized with more precise tuning features, better balance, and greater durability. The TC4's chassis has been designed with the batteries moved closer to the centerline of the car… a favorite TC3 modification of many Factory Team drivers.

"I believe that the TC4 has all the right design features and components to make this car win, hands down."—Gary Katzer RC Driver March 2005

This "mass centralization" allows quicker directional transitions, and the narrower chassis provides more side-to-side roll clearance. The inline motor mounting system features an all-new machined aluminum motor mount which not only provides greater motor stability, but also functions as an integral heat sink to draw heat away from today’s hotter modified motors. An optional "Factory Team" TC4 chassis forced air duct system provides even greater airflow to the motor.

Of course, the TC4 is supported by a full line of Factory Team performance parts, including blue titanium turnbuckles, optional radial heatsinks, a forced air-duct system, and the entire range of graphite chassis components.

Team Associated’s RC10TC4 RTR: taking the wild success of the TC3 RTR to the next level.

"The TC4 RTR is every bit as adjustable as the Team Kit. It's a stable, rugged platform that beginners can grow with and time-crunched, experienced drivers can quickly upgrade for track duty."—George M. Gonzalez

Team Associated’s RC10TC4 Touring Car is the refinement of the revolutionary TC3 platform, optimized with more precise tuning features, better balance, and greater durability.

Team Associated takes full advantage of all these improvements and combines them to bring you the RC10TC4 RTR. The TC4 RTR features include a Reedy Radon 17-turn motor, LRP's latest A.i. automatic speed control and Team Associated's XP radio system, all factory assembled. The TC4 RTR also comes with treaded tires mounted on chrome 8-spoke wheels, composite CVDs, ball diffs, VCS oil-filled composite shocks and a cool street-tuner decal sheet. All that's left for you to do is to add your batteries and get ready to lay down the rubber.

The TC4 RTR is supported by a full line of Factory Team performance parts, including blue titanium turnbuckles, optional radial heatsinks, a motor air-duct cooling system, and a full range of carbon chassis components.
