Wow...... Just......... Wow!

This Fully Functional Radio Control Model assembly kit perfectly recreates the Ford GT Mk II track-only supercar which was built to celebrate Fords Iconic race winning heritage at Le Mans 66 which saw three GT40's cross the finish line together beating Ferrari. This feat was accomplished with the legendary GT40 MKII back in 1966. This new version built by Ford will be limited to 45 hand-built machines, but the Tamiya R/C version is available for all fans!

The accurately depicted Ford GT MK II body is made of polycarbonate and ABS plastic wing and mirror pieces, which sits on top of our most builder user friendly TT-02 entry-level on-road chassis.

TT-02: Adaptable, balanced shaft driven 4WD
The shaft-driven 4WD TT-02 chassis employs a longitudinal layout with the battery on the left and the motor on the right, to give excellent stability. In addition, it features identical left and right suspension arms and uprights for ease of assembly, plus easy-to-maintain gearboxes. It is a highly adaptable chassis, as it offers 2 different wheelbases, 2 ground clearance settings and 2 tread set-ups in addition to a range of 10 possible gear ratios. It is not short on looks either, with brake disc-shaped wheel hubs and stylish front bumper supports. Gun metal color 10-spoke wheels and slick tires make for a racy finish.
