The Tamiya M-08 Chassis platform gets a performance boost with this Limited-Edition release. The M-08R Chassis Kit employs various kinds of option parts such as a ball differential for the rear gearbox, and TRF (Tamiya Racing Factory) precision oil dampers to get ready for club races!

This assembly kit creates the M-08 Concept high performance R/C chassis, which employs a midship motor, rear-wheel drive layout for superior rear traction, plus a main frame split into front and rear sections that allow 3 different wheelbase selections. Smooth 4-wheel double wishbone suspension utilizes CVA oil dampers and long suspension arms for ground hugging performance, and front caster with a pairing of 0-degree suspension mount and 2-degree hub carrier. An oil-filled gear differential provides smooth drive, while motor and gearbox are positioned to ensure powerful drive under acceleration.
