Champions by Design: The engineers at Team Associated's Area 51 set out to
extract more performance from the RC10B74 4WD buggy platform with the
introduction of the RC10B74.2 and RC10B74.2D. Our goals were to reduce overall
weight, lower the center of gravity, and improve jump and bump handling. We
exceeded expectations. Features: New lightweight molded gearboxes front and
rear: Two fixed height front gearboxes allowing 0 and +2mm diff height
options. One rear gearbox with RC10B6-style inserts allowing 0, +1, +2, and
+3mm diff height options. New 13mm big-bore threaded aluminum shocks and
springs with machined shock pistons for improved bump and jump handling. New
gull wing front suspension arms and mating shock tower for lower center of
gravity and better steering predictability. LTC differential gear sets are
included. They reduce binding under power, giving more predictable power
delivery. New battery hold-down system uses inserts to adjust weight bias.
O-ring style battery strap with pull tabs. New larger 3.5mm turnbuckles with
updated rod end style ball-cups to increase durability and reduce bind in the
suspension. New center bulkhead fan mount that mounts the fan above the motor
for better cooling performance. New -2mm wing mounts for use with slicks and
low-profile carpet tires to further lower the center of gravity. +3mm aluminum
steering rack for optimized bump steer at low ride heights. 66mm Rear CVA
drive shafts and axles for more on-power traction and more predictable driving
feel. For the RC10B74.2D: Center differential with 72T and 78T spur gear and
200,000 CST silicone diff fluid. Overview: The RC10B74.2 and RC10B74.2D
introduce molded gearboxes front and rear, which lower the center of gravity
by removing weight from high points of the car
