Classic supercar reproduced for hobby racing
For those who admire the original Lamborghini Countach but want an out-of-the-box option, the Tamiya 56712 Lamborghini Countach LP500S GT01 RTR delivers iconic looks in a ready-to-run 1/12 scale package. It brings the wedge-era silhouette to the track with minimal setup required.
GT-01 chassis tuned for stable cornering
The GT-01 chassis is built with a focus on low weight and a low center of gravity to help maintain stability at speed. A Type 370 motor powers the rear wheels, while the four-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with horizontally mounted front dampers smooths rough surfaces and keeps handling predictable.
Drive components engineered for efficiency
The drivetrain combines a ball differential, slipper clutch and universal shaft, all running on full ball bearings to maximize efficiency and reduce drivetrain losses for more consistent performance on the course.
Faithful bodywork with secure mounting
The Countach body is accurately rendered in lightweight polycarbonate and supplied pre-painted. It attaches via a reverse body mount system supported by side mounts for a secure fit, and the included driver figure adds a nostalgic period touch.
Complete RTR kit with upgrade options
The ready-to-run set includes a compact ESC, receiver, servo and a 2-channel transmitter so you can drive straight away. A broad selection of option parts and spare components is available for tuning, repairs or visual upgrades.
