The Porsche 911 Carrera RSR joins the Tamiya TT-02 chassis touring car entry level line-up. It is a legendary Group 4 car which had a body weighing just 900kg with a 300hp-plus horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine, and still holds a place in automotive enthusiast's hearts today thanks to its exploits with racing teams the world over. In 1973, the year of its release, it won the European GT Championship, plus the renowned 24 Hours of Daytona and 12 Hours of Sebring races. The works prototype in predominantly silver livery with the Martini stripe also took the checkered flag in the famed Targa Florio race.
Tamiya has faithfully reproduced this sleek racing machine in 1/10 scale on the TT-02 entry level touring car chassis. The TT-02 chassis platform is the successor to the TT-01 as it incorporates many new features to make it even easier for the new R/C kit builder to assemble and learn from. The TT-02 chassis performs well as cornering and overall speed has been enhanced to take advantage of new electronics available on the market. In addition to the TT-02 being an ideal platform to start from, R/C hobbyists can expand its potential by adding many of the Ho-Up-Options available to increase the cars speed and performance.

I'm considering purchasing a Tamiya Porsche Carrera RSR Martini from you with Sport Package. Aside from paint is there anything else I need to add on to my order e.g. glue for tyres etc.
Forgive my ignorance. This is the first model I'm attempting and I need to make sure I am buying everything I need in one go!
Many thanks
Mike
Asked by Mike on 11th September 2022
With our packages they do cover most of the items needed to get them built, yes you would still require some tyre glue A-TGLUE and then choose the paint you require from the Core RC or Tamiya PS range.
You may also like to look at this HC-74085 this will give you most tools you require for the build.
