The Tamiya R/C 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR TT-01 Type E Chassis:
This Tamiya radio control model replica recreates the 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR. The model was originally released as Item 58214 on the TA-03R chassis. This release sees the classic race car body mounted on the proven and beginner friendly TT-01 Type-E chassis! The actual car was powered by a behemoth 6-liter V12 engine. In 1997 it had a highly successful FIA GT Championship season, taking six wins in eleven races on its way to the team (AMG-Mercedes) and driver championships.
Tamiya's TT-01 Type E Chassis is a bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E and has its motor and battery close to the ground for lower centre of gravity and optimum balance. Mounted on the bathtub frame are a fibreglass reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers which improve rigidity, as well as a 3-piece tie rod to provide smooth steering action. The low centre of gravity, great balanced design, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, and front and rear differential gears all come together to result in superb driving characteristics.
