Tamiya 58516 - 1/10 BMW 318i STW TT-01E Track Replica [58516]

This R/C assembly kit depicts the BMW 318iSTW as it raced in the Super Touring Car Cup series in the mid-1990’s. The race car was built on the legendary E36-generation of BMW’s iconic 3-series sedan platform. The kit is a limited production rerelease that is paired with the fun and easy to build TT-01 Type E chassis. For this edition, the kit has updated markings, and window masking tape for the body painting process.
Evolved 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 best 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 4WD on road running. A host of Hop-Up Option parts are available to further enhance the performance of this easy to build chassis.
