For RC racers and scale model fans, Tamiya delivers nostalgia and quality. The Tamiya 58682-60A reproduces the 1991 Audi V8 Touring car, celebrating the DTM season when Frank Biela and the Audi V8 scored multiple victories. This kit blends period-correct looks with practical buildability.
The TT-02 chassis is a shaft-driven 4WD layout that emphasizes predictable handling. Its longitudinal arrangement places the battery on the left and the motor on the right to aid balance at speed. Builders can choose between two wheelbase settings, alter ride height and change tread, plus select from ten gear ratio combinations to match driving style.
Putting the Audi V8 together is rewarding for builders who enjoy detailing. The lightweight polycarbonate shell is supplied with authentic decals to reproduce the #45 Biela car, and window masking stickers simplify painting. Two-piece mesh wheels with silver rims and gold spokes are fitted with racing slick tyres for a genuine on-track look.
This kit uses a brushed 540-type motor and benefits from a 4-bevel differential and fully independent double wishbone suspension for composed handling. An electronic speed control is not included, giving owners the freedom to select an ESC that matches their motor and driving preferences.
The Tamiya Audi V8 TT-02 is a solid choice for collectors and club racers who value authentic styling and a chassis that is easy to tune and maintain.
