The Toyota GT-One TS020 is remembered for its intense 1999 Le Mans campaign on the Circuit de la Sarthe, featuring a carbon fibre composite body and a 3600cc V8 twin-turbo R36V engine. A late tyre blowout affected its result, yet the car remains an important part of endurance racing history.
Tamiya's 1/24 rendition faithfully mirrors the GT-One's aerodynamic lines, including a faithful nose and rear diffuser. The kit's removable rear cowl reveals the modelled V8 twin-turbo engine, allowing builders to highlight mechanical detail alongside bodywork.
Geared toward hobbyists who enjoy detailed painting, the kit supplies decals for two car numbers and masking seals for crisp paintwork. When completed, the model serves as an attractive tribute to the GT-One's Le Mans appearance.
