1:28 Scale 2WD Electric On-Road Competition Kit
Introducing the Team Associated RC28R Team Kit. This compact on-road race car is designed with the same engineering precision found in every AREA 51-developed product. Though small in scale, the RC28R delivers big performance in an easy to set up package. Featuring a fixed-arm front suspension with included optional molded upper arms for tuning caster and camber. The torsion side links (soft, medium, and hard included) replace the need for a side spring making setup easy while adding performance in areas a conventional spring does not. The battery holder design ensures quick access without disturbing the center shock.

The steel chassis plate provides a low center of gravity while the insert adjustable roll center enables chassis roll adjustment based on the grip level. The pitch, roll and droop can further be tuned/Adjusted with the threaded aluminum center shock, spring collars and side damper tubes. The two-piece rear pod allows quick axle height adjustment utilizing Factory Team carbon fiber shims. Fine-tune Ackermann on the fly with the adjustable servo mount. Compact, tunable, and designed to race, the RC28R is built for high performance and fun—even in tight spaces.
