This is a limited-edition version of the 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK AMG Racing Version (Item 58722) kit with pre-painted, pre-cut body and wheel arches, great for not only beginners but also veterans.
The R/C model assembly kit recreates the 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK AMG Racing Version and is based on Tamiya's popular TT-02 chassis. The body used in this kit was last seen on product 58296 CLK-DTM 2002 AMG-Mercedes on the TL-01LA chassis from 2002. It's now being used to create the iconic race car as it appeared as the homologation version which inherits the racecar's powerful form with enlarged over fenders and rear wing, without sponsor logos. This version of the kit comes with a pre-painted body which helps speed up the assembly process for anxious hobbyists wanting to hit the pavement quickly.

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.
