So to get you caught up on what’s new from the JC crew, please take a look at the Winter 2020 edition of the Product Rewind!

Clear Body For The Team Associated RC10B3

Kicking off 2020 was a body straight out of a 1997 time capsule. With approval from Team Associated, JConcepts is now offering the classic RC10B3 clear body shell to multi-generational drivers.

This body is a perfect drop fit for the 3rd generation RC10 and will be a hit for any vintage racer or a collector try to restore a shelf queen build.

Sprinter SCT Tire

The Sprinter tire was released in 2019 and was an instant hit in the Dirt Oval scene. Now this winning tire design is available in the industry standard 3.0″ x 2.2″ dimensions for short course truck based vehicles. They still features the same winning details like angled outer sidewall pins and square horizontal traction bars.

Destination Apparel

Each one features a brown, leather version of the JConcepts lightning bolt shield logo on the front with an adjustable snapback in the rear. All 3 hats use a “trucker hat” design with a black, mesh covering the back half of the hat. The all black hats are available in either a rounded or flat-bill configuration while the gray version is currently only available as a flat-bill.

Destination Knit Beanie Cap
