Is there a new RC10 GT coming?

[pmoncion]

Hi all, I' thinking on getting a new gas truck, like the Associated GT, I aready have the T4, B4, and a Mugen Prospect. I hear a guy in the track saying Associated is bringing a new GT, should I wait, or that is not happening. HELP!

Welcome to the forum. I moved your thread here to get a better response.

I went to RCX and didn't hear anything about a new Associated ride.

I doubt they will bring out a new one for quite some time...

 

[redhatman]

Hey pmoncion! Welcome. I havent heard of anything like that. Not even a rumor...

 

[pmoncion]

Thanks guys for the responds, I guess I will be getting a GT soon then, why is Associated taking so long to give us a new car, cammon, is being too long.

 

[redhatman]

Hey, yea...I agree. We need something to get us really hyped up about...

The reason associated is not bringing a new RC10gt is because the "old" gt is still competitive. Jared Tebo won at "The Dirt Nitro Challenge" back in feb.

ah, I see

I read in an issue of Xtrem R/C that they are talking about it but it will be a long time before they will release it.

Thanks for the info. Will be so cool to have a GT with the suspenssion of the T4. I think the handling will be so much better.

I think that ROAR has a rule on how wide / long the vehicle must be, and it is right in that area...

I have a pretty riliable source that says parts are in testing, and tha the engineer has been hired.

I'm sure with losi releasing quick change hubs, that associatied will be hard pressed to atleast develop something to comepet with just that aspect of the losi.

At the nats, tebo's gt was outfitted with some 1 off qwick change hubs that his father built.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. RC10GT is a tough reliable truck and there isn't much improvement that can be done to it other than maybe the quick change wheels. I keep hearing rumors about a new GT coming out but nothing official.

its comming but not for a while, most likely it will be out as the racing season comes to a close.
