58509 1/12 R/C Toyota Tom’s 84C (RM-01 Chassis)

In stores for Christmas 2011! This R/C Kit rides on the new On-Road Chassis.

 

In 1985, Tamiya released a number of 1/12 scale R/C models and they enjoyed a great reputation. In recent years, the 1/12 scale class has become a very popular R/C race class once again. To re-enter this exciting class, Tamiya has created the brand-new RM-01 chassis. This new chassis features a Direct Drive 2WD setup and a pivot-ball link rear (PBLR) suspension to offer linear throttle and steering response and realistic racing action. Tamiya's Toyota Tom's 84C will be making a return as the first machine on the RM-01 chassis.
