Team Associated Factory Team TC7.1 Touring Car

Team Associated Factory Team TC7.1 Touring Car

Team Associated has given their flagship onroad, the TC7, the .1 treatment with a few upgrades that are sure to boost performance on the track.

Since tire compounds and grip levels have steadily increased, AE decided to address certain areas of the TC7 that could optimize the traction. To do this, the designers went to work by adding the shortest shocks they had to lower the CG, in this case the Genuine Kashima Coated FOX shocks. DCV front drive axles are included to allow smoother power delivery at extreme angles. The chassis is super narrow, allowing the TC7.1 to roll more without touching down. Lightweight carbon suspension parts are included as is the one-piece motor mount, soft drive belts and low-CG steering system.

I have the TC7 and absolutely love it. I’m glad to see Team AE continuing the progression of such a fantastic car.
