Specifications

Originally released in 1993, the Team Associated RC10GT forever changed the landscape of RC racing by bringing nitro engines into competitive stadium truck racing. With more wins than we can count, the RC10GT earned its place as the most iconic gas-powered truck ever created. Today, we’re thrilled to announce the legendary RC10GT lives on with this exclusive Gold Edition—a fitting tribute to a true champion.

Built on Over 20 Years of Gas Racing Expertise

Don’t mistake the RC10GT Gold Edition for aftermarket conversions or other nitro trucks. This is the real deal, engineered by the same Team Associated experts who developed the original RC10 and set the standard for RC racing. Purpose-built to harness the raw power of gas engines, the RC10GT is the most advanced, high-performance vehicle of its kind. Like its electric counterpart, the RC10T, it features a competition-tested four-wheel suspension with gold anodized, coil-over shock dampening.

At the heart of the RC10GT is the Team Associated Stealth ATC gearbox, adapted specifically for nitro power, ensuring seamless transmission of engine power to the ground. Its race-ready disc brake system provides reliable stopping power, rounding out a kit built for performance and reliability. As always, Team Associated uses only the best materials and hardware for durability and precision.

Feel the Thrill of Nitro Racing

The RC10GT brings nitro racing to life with the sound, power, and excitement that only gas engines can provide. It’s the only RC gas truck to deliver Team Associated’s legendary performance and reliability, ensuring you get the most out of every race.


Development Backed by Champions

The RC10GT’s development involved the best minds and racers in the industry. IFMAR World Champion drivers Brian Kinwald and Cliff Lett, alongside designer Curtis Husting, were instrumental in the design, track testing, and racing of the RC10GT prototypes, ensuring its dominance in competitions.


Unmatched Features and Performance

The RC10GT Gold Edition builds on the strengths of the original with a feature set that’s second to none:

  • Stagger block front and pin spike rear tires specifically developed for the RC10GT.
  • Compatible with .12 to .15 displacement 2-stroke model engines (recommended: .12 size).
  • Quick-fill 75cc fuel tank for 2-second pit stops, letting you race as long as you want.
  • Gold anodized alloy shocks with precision machining for smooth, consistent performance.
  • Wide track, long-throw suspension, molded from rugged, lightweight, dyeable virgin nylon.
  • A deep-drawn, aircraft-grade aluminum monocoque tub chassis, laser-etched with the RC10GT logo.
  • Adjustable slipper clutch for fine-tuned performance.
  • Reversible bellcrank servo-saver steering system for precise control.
  • Authentic vintage design with original clear Lexan body and classic white plastic parts.

Why the RC10GT Stands Out

The RC10GT was a game-changer in its time, bringing nitro power to the competitive stage. Its innovative design, including adjustable suspension, precision steering, and rugged construction, made it a favorite of professional racers like Richard Saxton, Billy Easton, Mark Pavidis, and Jared Tebo. It dominated major events, earning ROAR National Championship titles and cementing its legacy as the best nitro stadium truck of its era.


A Legacy That Lives On

Though discontinued in the mid-2000s as the RC world shifted toward brushless electric systems, the RC10GT remains a beloved classic. Collectors and vintage RC enthusiasts cherish its contributions to the hobby. This Gold Edition re-release celebrates that legacy, combining nostalgia with race-ready performance for today’s enthusiasts.
