Chassis Focus – Spencer Rivkin

lrmon-rivkinrc8-9

Chassis – Team Associated RC8B3
Engine – MX B4
Tyres – JConcepts Triple Dees
Fuel – MX
Radio/Servos – Sanwa / Reedy
Body – JConcepts ‘Strike 3’

Remarks – Current US National Champion is running his MX powered Associated RC8B3 with a new bodyshell from JConcepts called the Strike 3. The body makes the car more neutral and therefore more balanced on the track. Starting with his base setup, the only adjustment he has made was to make a change to the rear hub which helped it rotate more as well as give the rear more support. Running Triple Dees and Hybrids throughout practice, the 4wd World Champion will most likely go with Hybrids come qualifying.
