More info
The BIGWIG was the first Tamiya car with a body designed by an outside designer: Japanese full size race car designer and team owner Takuya Yura. This re-release version is based closely upon the original, with some tweaks to bring it up to date.
Key features
- Aerodynamic body is made of lightweight and durable polycarbonate.
- Engine and exhaust details are depicted by integrated chassis parts.
- ABS resin bathtub-type chassis.
- Shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain equipped with full ball bearings ensuring minimal power loss.
- Rack and pinion steering (the only of its kind on a Tamiya model) gives excellent driving feel.
- Boots cover the steering tie-rods, and anti-wear grease is included in the kit to seal the steering mechanism from dirt and gravel.
- "Aerodish" 1-piece wheels are combined with oval block pattern tires for superior grip.
- Newly designed stickers keep to the overall theme of the original.
- Includes a GT-Tuned motor (25T) with sticker unique to the Big Wig.
