Car: Associated B44.2

Batteries: Orion
Radio/Servo: Airtronics

Defending 4wd World Champion Ryan Cavalieri is running the Associated B44.2 with a number of specific parts for the unique track conditions developed following the Nationals and Worlds warmup race. The most noticeable part is the one off aluminium chassis plate which was made to help dissipate heat but also add more weight to the car lower down to help combat the high grip conditions. Ryan is also running gear diffs on the car as well as updated drive cups from the centre drive spur gear as the track is very unforgiving on the cars drivetrain. RC is also running the newly released low friction ball cups and harder A-arms and on top he is using the latest B44 shell from JConcepts. In terms of setup he has worked on stiffening up the front end by running harder springs, stiffer oils and even trying a front anti-roll bar.
