Chassis Focus – Rick Hohwart

LRThurs-HohwartTC7-10

Chassis – Associated TC7
Motor – Reedy Sonic 4.5T
ESC – Reedy 510R
Battery – Reedy Zappers 5600mAh
Tires (handout) – Sweep
Radio/Servo – Sanwa/Reedy
Body – Protoform LTC-R

Remarks – Veteran Associated racer Rick Hohwart is top US driver after controlled practice using the TC7 chassis. Starting the event with a combination of his standard US setup and that used by European team driver Juho Levanen, as practice as gone on he has moved back little by little to his standard setup which sees the weight more towards the rear of the car to help with entry and mid corner. Using prototype short shocks he is, just like in 1/12th, also using the production ready 510R speed controller from Reedy.
