Tamiya 1/10 R/C Porsche 911 GT3 CUP VIP 2008 (TT-01 Type-E)
This is a radio control car assembly kit, which requires preparation and assembly. Additional items such as radio gear, servo batteries, and charger are required for operation (sold separately).
VIP in the Building!
The 911 GT3 Cup car was developed for the Porsche Super Cup, a single-make
racing series gracing circuits around the world. The VIP car recreated by this
assembly kit was run by Porsche themselves and was driven upon invitation by a
different driver according to the race. Its powerful form and rear wing are
recreated expertly in durable and lightweight polycarbonate, with separately
molded side mirror parts, plus metal-plated light cases that allow the
installation of separately sold LEDs front and rear. Stickers are included in
the kit to recreate numerous sponsor logos and other markings.
Evolved Chassis
The bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has it's motor
and battery close to the ground for a lower center of gravity and optimum
balance. Mounted on the bathtub frame is a fiberglass reinforced nylon upper
deck and gear covers improving rigidity, as well as a three-piece tie rod
providing smooth steering action. The low center of gravity, highly balanced
design, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, and front and rear
differential gears all come together to produce an excellent drive. Mesh designs
wheels are paired with racing slick tires for the finishing touch, while a host
of Hop-Up Option parts are available to soup up the TT-01 Type-E!
