Tamiya BMW M3 Sport Jägermeister (TT-02)

In 1992 the BMW M3 Sport EVO treated German Touring Car Championship (DRM) fans to numerous on-track battles with its Mercedes rival; powered by a 350 hp-plus, 2.5-liter inline-4 DOHC 16-valve engine, it was used by both works and privateer teams, the latter including the Linder team, whose car is recreated by this R/C model assembly kit. The model uses a detailed polycarbonate body which captures the 2-door sedan form with blister fenders and front spoiler, and has separate parts for front grille, side mirrors and rear wing. Finish the memorable Jägermeister livery with the stickers in the kit, and fit the model with its mesh design wheels and racing slick tires.

Adaptable TT-02 Chassis offers balanced shaft driven 4WD

The shaft driven 4WD TT-02 chassis employs a longitudinal layout with the battery on the left and the motor on the right, to offer excellent stability. In addition, it features identical left and right suspension arms and uprights for ease of assembly, plus easy-to-maintain gearboxes. It is a highly adaptable chassis, as it offers 2 different wheelbases, 2 ground clearance settings (the higher position is used with the Lancia Delta Integrale) and 2 tread set-ups in addition to a range of 10 possible gear ratios. It is not short on looks either, with brake disc-shaped wheel hubs and stylish front bumper supports.
