Technical Performance
The Team Associated DC10 FT Magnetic Body Mount Set represents the cutting edge of drift car body mounting technology. These high-strength magnetic mounts utilise premium materials and precision engineering to deliver exceptional performance and durability. The magnetic system works by creating a secure, non-mechanical bond between your drift body and the DC10 chassis, eliminating the need for traditional fasteners that can rattle loose, bend, or fail under the demands of intense drift driving. The strength of the magnetic attraction is specifically calibrated to hold your body securely during aggressive cornering, acceleration, braking, and sustained sliding manoeuvres whilst remaining easy to remove for maintenance, body swaps, or repairs. The engineering reflects Factory Team's commitment to competition-grade quality, with careful attention paid to ensuring that the magnetic mounts do not interfere with body aerodynamics, radio antenna placement, or any other aspect of your DC10's performance. For drift car enthusiasts in the UK who demand professional-grade equipment, this set meets the rigorous standards expected from a genuine Associated solution.
