The M-06 places the motor at the rear and powers the rear wheels. This creates a unique, snappy handling experience, rewarding precision and encouraging playful drifts.
Adjustable Wheelbase
Adjustable Wheelbase
The M-06 offers multiple wheelbase options (210mm, 225mm, 239mm). This allows you to fine-tune the chassis to match the body shell you choose, enhancing both scale realism and handling characteristics. This version comes with the 225 mm chassis instructions.
Lengthwise Mounted Battery Tray
Lengthwise Mounted Battery Tray
The battery sits lengthwise in the centre of the chassis. This promotes excellent balance, weight distribution, and a low centre of gravity, giving the car a planted feel when throwing it around corners.
Double Wishbone Suspension
Double Wishbone Suspension
All four wheels feature independent double-wishbone suspension with oil-filled shocks. This system soaks up bumps for smooth handling on various surfaces.
Compact and Durable Design

Have been collecting tamiya kits since I was 12. The service from hobbies direct was painless and well organised. Tamiya kits are always great. The only problem is there are so many to choose from and they are normally sold out very quickly.
