Team Associated has launched their next-gen 1/8 scale truggy, the RC8T4 Team Kit. This truggy looks absolutely bad ass and comes chock-full of new updates over the T3. There’s quite a few ‘new this and new that’, but what catches our eye the most is the incredibly low body profile with everything tucked away all nice and clean under it. Check out the LONG list below of ‘new’ stuff added to this truck!

What We Like:
Well, there certainly is alot of NEW on the RC8T4, which is something EVERYONE can get behind. We’ve always LOVED the truggy class and, although we aren’t big into nitro, we feel this rig has enough new to it that it can help get you out and in front of the pack!
What We’re Not Sure About:
No body. We get the no-wheels-and-tires thing but a nice newly designed body would have been cool.
