Tamiya 1/10 Audi A4 Quattro Touring TT01E # 47414

This Tamiya R/C car recreates a classic Audi A4 Quattro Touring car as it raced in 1997.

In the late 1990s, manufacturer-backed teams would come to dominate touring car series around the world. One of the most pre-eminent was Audi, which spared no expense in its pursuit of the top of the podium.

Using its base A4 quattro as a platform, Audi developed the car significantly and turned it into a race winner. In addition, Audi sought the best drivers from around the world in order to do their creation justice. This Tamiya R/C car recreates a classic Audi A4 Quattro Touring car as it raced in 1997.

Tamiya recreates this racer on top of the TT-01 E chassis, which is ideal for beginner kit builders.

The original release of this Audi was mounted on the Tamiya TA-03 machine. 

TT-01 E Chassis The bathtub frame of the evolved shaft-driven 4WD TT-01 Type-E has its motor and battery close to the ground for lower center of gravity and optimum balance.

Mounted on the bathtub frame is a fiberglass reinforced nylon upper deck and gear covers improving rigidity, as well as a 3-piece tie rod providing a smoother steering action.

The low center of gravity, great balanced design, 4-wheel double wishbone suspension system, and front and rear differential gears all come together to produce excellent operating ability.

70mm-diameter radial tires are paired with metal plated wheels developed just for this model; the high sidewalls make for forgiving turns.
