Description Tamiya 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR 1/10 4WD Electric Touring Car Kit (TT-01E)  – TAM47437-60A The Tamiya 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR TT-01E 1/10 4WD Touring Car Kit is a 1/10 replica of the 1997 Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR. The full scale 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. This model is built on the proven beginner friendly TT-01 Type E chassis. The bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has its motor and battery close to the ground for 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 3-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. Silver color spoke 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 chassis for maximum performance.
