SC8.2e Ready-To-Run

SC8.2e Ready-To-Run

Modeled after the short-course race trucks that compete in the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series, the SC8.2e RTR takes the next evolutionary step in Team Associated's 1:8 scale short-course line by adding the new performance suspension developed on our R.O.A.R. National Championship-winning RC8.2 buggy.

The SC8.2e RTR includes high-performance features like the XP SC1300-BL brushless electronic speed control with T-plug Connector, and a powerful Reedy 2000kv brushless motor. Also included is the XP 2.4GHz radio system with the high-torque metal-gear servo that provides clean and consistent control.

The SC8.2e RTR was designed to meet the scale specifications of the 1:1 short-course race trucks. It's all there, from the scale suspension travel, to the roll-cage tube diameter, to the functional mud flaps. The result is the SC8.2e RTR, a creation of an unparalleled scale experience at the top level of performance.

Magazine Review
The new AE point-two platforms are much easier to drive, more constant over long runs and the electronics package is perfect for the enthusiast and even for racers. There are plenty of other exciting updates to this machine like the new body graphics and the new style of wheels that will allow you to use popular 1/10 tires to gain traction. After a few minor setup changes, I really got into this truck and enjoyed driving it around the track. It was apparent to other racers who came up to me and said it was awesome just watching me drive the truck around. They headed off to the hobby shop to check into getting one of their own. AE nailed it again with the SC8.2e.
