As excited as we are for this, it’s really no surprise to see the announcement of the T5M, the next-gen stadium truck from Team Associated. The B5 and B5M have been major releases for the company that it just made sense to update this truck surface.
Based on the B5M’s mid-motor platform, the T5M uses a longer chassis to lengthen it and longer arms to widen it. Like the buggies, the T5M allows the fitment of ROAR-approved 2S saddle pack and 2S shorty LiPo batteries. Features include 12mm V2 Big Bore threaded aluminum shocks, a four-gear transmission, lightened aluminum top shaft, precision bearings and adjustable kick-up. A Proline T5M-specific clear body is included, however you’ll need to supply your own wheels and tires.
I can’t wait to get my hands on one of these! If it’s anywhere near as good as the B5M, this truck is going to dominate the ST class!
