Team Associated 7003 1/10 RC10T Cliff Lett Edition Off-Road Racing Truck Kit

The Truck category of off road competition makes unique demands in chassis, suspension and overall design. Team Associateds RC10T Cliff Lett Edition benefits from the race-proven engineering of our Multi-time World Champion RC10. But in fact, the RC10T shares only the alloy monocoque tub, Stealth A.T.C. transmission and racing shocks of the legendary RC10 Team Car.

Prototypes of the RC10T proved highly competitive, finishing first and second in the 1991 Florida Winter Championships. Unique features, all of which are incorporated into the production RC10T, include a long wheelbase and super wide track to optimize the Truck Class regulations. Suspension arms are precision molded from virgin nylon and reinforced to be exceptionally strong, yet very light. The four wheel independent suspension, shocks, and towers also allow for extremely long travel.

Truck racing wheels and tires were also developed specially for the RC10T. This rerelease RC10T comes with standard wide mini pin rear tires, neon red powder coated chassis, and the famously banned narrow front tires. All wheels are lightweight, 3-piece modular design, molded perfectly concentric in virgin nylon. The narrow front tires were designed for the existing ROAR Truck Class rules of the era, and used on the winning prototype RC10Ts.

Team Associated is proud to present the RC10T Cliff Lett Edition, a tribute to the legendary stadium truck that made its mark at the 1991 Florida Winter Champs. This special edition faithfully recreates the look and performance of the original RC10T that Cliff drove to victory at the debut race of this iconic platform. At the heart of this release is the striking powder-coated fluorescent red chassis, a signature feature that not only catches the eye but also pays homage to the truck that dominated the competition more than three decades ago.

Staying true to its roots, the RC10T Cliff Lett Edition includes RCPS turnbuckles, which provide enhanced durability and precise adjustability, allowing drivers to fine-tune the truck for optimal performance. The truck is also equipped with the legendary Stealth transmission, a game-changing innovation that delivers smooth and efficient power transfer. To reinforce the transmission and maintain consistent performance under stress, weve also included a carbon fiber transmission brace, giving the truck the same durability and stability that Cliff relied on during his championship-winning run.

Other period-correct details complete the package, including narrow front tires, hard-anodized shocks, and full-color decal sheet to build an exact replica of Cliffs famous truck. Every element of the RC10T Cliff Lett Edition has been meticulously designed to capture the spirit of the original, giving both collectors and racers a chance to experience a piece of RC history. Whether displayed proudly or taken to the track, this edition is a fitting tribute to Cliff Letts contribution to the RC racing world.

Cliff Lett is a renowned figure in the RC industry, known for his contributions to Team Associated and his pivotal role in advancing RC car technology. Before making a name in RC racing, Cliff began his career in the motocross industry as a factory mechanic for Yamaha team member Ricky Johnson. His work with high-performance motocross bikes equipped him with a deep understanding of suspension dynamics, gear ratios, and vehicle setupskills that would later become invaluable in the RC world.

Cliffs passion for RC racing led him to transition from motocross to the fast-growing RC industry in the mid 1980s. His expertise quickly gained recognition, and in 1985, he founded RC Performance Specialties (RCPS), a company dedicated to producing high-quality aftermarket parts for RC cars. RCPS specialized in performance upgrades that enhanced the durability and handling of RC vehicles, making them popular among serious racers. Items like titanium turnbuckles, hinge pins, the Mirage SS body, and Green Slime are just a few items produced by RCPS.

In 1988, Cliffs talents caught the attention of Team Associated, a dominant force in the RC racing world. Upon joining Team Associated, founder Roger Curtis suggested that Associated purchase RCPS and all of its products and rebrand it as Factory Team, the companys high-performance division focused on producing top-tier parts and accessories for competitive racing. Cliffs expertise played a critical role in the development of several iconic RC products, including the RC10T, RC10GT, Team Car, Worlds Car. RC10B2, TC3, Stealth transmission, and more!
