The body looks like it's designed after the venerable Lancia 037 rally car in the Martini livery. Slight differences, of course. Could also be the Kimera EVO37.

Nice!!! I need to dive in the sport a little… 😁

[@MysticRiverRC]

Looks pretty sweet!

[@aefanboy3464]

Going to be fun!! Build update over on my IG!

[@rc_amigos]

I need to pick up one of those soon! I love the conversion I did on my Datsun 620!

[@Wurmz]

Ive been looking into grabbing one of these- but have no experience with Associated.. worth?

[@aefanboy3464]

Well it’s an RTR and this is the “Sport” version. Bushings not bearings, plastic friction style shocks and low end electronics. I bout the new rally conversion for it and new electronics. Associated has the best race cars on the planet and know what they are doing.. 🤘🏻

Updates on my IG account!

How shallow those hex cut out in the wheels is a bit concerning, I imagine any real power electronics upgraded are going to strip those right out...might be the main reason that and the hoonicars come with slow weak power systems.

[@aefanboy3464]

Easy to remove 😀

[@SpellboundStats]

@@aefanboy3464 True enough but since you drive for Associated they might pay attention to the issues they have..I deeper hex might cost them an extra 3 cents per unit. In todays competitive market place, no company wants to be known as the one with the most basic of issues to solve before it leaves a bad taste in a potential life long consumers mouth about their products. Do you know what I love Associated products? Because when I was a teen, I raced a gold tub RC10 and it was awesome compared to my old Tamiya Hornet.

no way, now theres a cheap Lancia delta and intergrale, If they do the Stratos next im getting all 3 at once

[@aefanboy3464]

More the better… 😀

[@Stitchloveu]

I upgrad the power and add drift tired on

[@aefanboy3464]

Yeah I went with a 13.5 and Hobbywing ESC.. I need to get this thing out more!

[@enricomiceli5517]

In my country is the same price than the fiesta st bl2s and the slash bl2s, it has no ball bearing and friction shocks, also is brushed..m is one of the worst priced package i have ever seen. Get a fazer mk2 or a xv01 and u will make abetter choice

[@aefanboy3464]

I hear you but I am a driver for Team Associated. I got this and will be fully upgrading…

[@enricomiceli5517]

​@@aefanboy3464 i understand, i belive is not a crappy platform at all but still, why the terrible pricing?

[@aefanboy3464]
