Overview
The Tamiya TT-02R is a race-ready 1/10 scale touring car chassis kit designed as a high-performance evolution of the popular TT-02 platform. By combining the proven simplicity and balance of the TT-02 with a comprehensive set of factory-installed hop-up components, the TT-02R delivers improved rigidity, drivetrain efficiency, and suspension performance straight out of the box. This chassis is the ideal foundation for club racing, spec classes, or builders who want performance upgrades without purchasing them separately.
The TT-02R includes many of Tamiya's most popular option parts as standard equipment, including aluminum motor mount, aluminum propeller shaft, aluminum rear uprights with 3-degree toe-in, CVA oil-filled dampers, and a full ball bearing drivetrain. These factory upgrades dramatically enhance performance over the base TT-02, making the TT-02R an excellent choice for competitive racing and serious enthusiast driving.
