Description

High-Performance Competition Ready 4WD On-Road Racing Kit

This RC model assembly kit faithfully reproduces the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR, originally debuted in the Tamiya catalog in 1998, featuring the well-received TA-03R chassis platform and later the user-friendly TT-01E platform. Now, it makes a comeback on our advanced TC-01 chassis platform, promising heightened performance by leveraging the sleek body profile of the Mercedes and the low center of gravity inherent in the TC-01.

About the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR

Clear Body

The Clear untrimmed body design of the 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR radiates a perfect blend of elegance and aerodynamic prowess. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this R/C car kit faithfully recreates the lightweight and durable polycarbonate exterior of the original model. The sleek and streamlined silhouette captures the essence of the CLK-GTR's racing pedigree, with carefully molded white ABS plastic parts adding authenticity to features like side mirrors and a rear wing. Silver mesh wheels, complemented by racing slick tires, contribute to the car's dynamic appearance, while the wide stance of the rear wheels emphasizes its performance capabilities. The overall design reflects the spirit of the iconic 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR, marrying aesthetic sophistication with the functional aerodynamics required for a high-performance machine.

Performance Chassis

The TC-01's resilient composite monocoque-frame offers efficient shaft-driven 4WD, connecting a central motor to front and rear propeller shafts with oil-filled gear differentials. Its 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension features extended arms and inboard setups both at the front and rear, equipped with oil shock-dampers activated by push rods and rocker arms, allowing compatibility with low-profile bodies. The ease of adjusting spacer width facilitates quick alterations to camber, skid, and toe angle settings.

Performance Suspension:

This chassis Kit includes meticulously designed suspension system for superior handling and adaptability. The 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension, featuring extended A-shaped long arms and inboard setups both at the front and rear, is a hallmark of precision engineering. Oil shock-dampers on a cantilever suspension system enhance stability while lowering the CG. The symmetrical design, with identical suspension arms and uprights on all sides, ensures not only efficient maintenance but also seamless pit work.

Features:

  • Buttery smooth shaft driven 4WD TC-01 drivetrain
  • Separately molded white ABS plastic parts recreate side mirrors and rear wing
  • Stickers and window masking for use in the body painting process
  • The body is made of lightweight and rigid polycarbonate
  • Fully independent double wishbone suspension
  • Identical suspension arms for easy maintenance
  • Low maintenance oil filled shocks
  • Cantilever suspension allows for low-profile bodies
  • High strength composite monocoque-frame chassis
  • Buttery smooth oil filled differentials
