Starting
life as a 1937 International shell, the full-scale Trophy Rat has
gone over 1,500 man hours (and counting) from conceptualization to
completion. The goal for this build was to accomplish the perfect
blend between a trophy truck and a rat rod with an LS6 Corvette
engine for a heart. Something that could be used as a daily driver,
but also take to the King of Hammers or local road course.
Team
Associated's Ready-To-Run 1:10 replica of Northrup Fabrication's
Trophy Rat is wrapped around the chassis and engineering of the
9-time R.O.A.R. Short Course National Championship-winning truck. The
Trophy Rat is both all show and all go!
The truck features a
water-resistant high-power Reedy brushless speed control and 3300kV
brushless motor, a 2.4GHz 2-channel radio system as well as our ALL
NEW DVC (Dynamic Vehicle Control) receiver unit with built-in
adjustable digital gyro which allows vehicle stability to be adjusted
to flow with the terrain. A High-torque digital metal gear servo and
LED lights front and rear round out the Trophy Rat!
The
suspension also received an upgrade with the addition of adjustable
blue anodized aluminum V2 12mm big bore coil-over shocks. The gearbox
now comes with a heavy-duty sealed-gear differential and externally
adjustable V2 slipper clutch. 86mm CVA driveshafts increase traction
and chassis support. Hex-drive wheels come standard on the Trophy Rat
with realistic off road wheels and tires to keep the truck gripping
the ground.
