Description
Overview
The Tamiya 2020 Ford GT Mk II RC assembly kit recreates one of the most exclusive track-only supercars ever produced. Announced in 2019, the GT Mk II is based upon the Ford GT road car but with performance thoroughly tuned without limitations related to race or public road regulations. With only 45 units to be produced worldwide, the full-size GT Mk II is incredibly rare—but Tamiya makes this mesmerizing modern classic accessible to all enthusiasts.
Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 twin turbo engine capable of 700hp, the GT Mk II features a body refined for aerodynamic efficiency with flying buttresses connecting roof and rear fenders, a prominent diffuser, and massive rear wing. Built on Tamiya's versatile TT-02 shaft-driven 4WD chassis, this kit captures every detail in polycarbonate with separate parts for the buttresses, wing, and distinctive side mirrors. Gun metal 10-spoke wheels and included motor and ESC complete this track supercar package.
