Team Associated / Yokomo YZ-10 KitThe partnership between Team Associated and Yokomo goes back as far as 1972. However, it was the relationship in the early 80s with Yokomo’s YZ-10 that represents a significant chapter in the history of RC racing.

In the world of remote-controlled car racing, the 1989 IFMAR Worlds in Australia marked a pivotal moment. Team Associated and Yokomo emerged as a dominant force, with drivers Cliff Lett, Masami Hirosaka, Jay Halsey, and Butch Kloeber showcasing their prowess in_4-wheel drive with the YZ-10 and ruling the course in 2-wheel drive with Team Associated's RC10s, setting the stage for a great partnership between the two companies.
