DTM Racer Styling Brought to Scale Model Form

The Tamiya 44028 - 1/10 GP TG10 Mercedes CLK DTM 2000 presents a race-bred GT body on a purpose-built nitro chassis. The kit blends a scale appearance with components intended for serious on-track handling.

FS-12LT: Glow Engine Basics

The FS-12LT provides the nitro thrust and engine note associated with small-scale nitro GTs. It is straightforward to service and responds well to basic tuning adjustments for improved throttle response.

TG10-Mk.1 Chassis Features

Built around a 2.5mm duralumin double deck plate, the TG10-Mk.1 aims to keep the car both stiff and controllable. The independent double wishbone layout at all four corners helps maintain tyre contact and stability during aggressive manoeuvres.

Detailed Shell and Handling Balance

The polycarbonate body mirrors the CLK DTM 2000 proportions while mounting securely to the chassis. Its 257mm wheelbase and roughly 1650g weight make for a platform that balances scale looks with predictable handling on smooth tracks.

For hands-on hobbyists who enjoy tweaking handling and engine settings, this Tamiya kit offers a satisfying build and rewarding on-track behaviour. The Tamiya 44028 - 1/10 GP TG10 Mercedes CLK DTM 2000 is a solid choice for scale nitro GT fans.

Basic modelling tools, a small socket set, and a selection of hex drivers are sufficient; a good set of calipers and thread lock are recommended for accurate assembly.
Consider firmer shock oil, minor front toe adjustments and balanced weight distribution to improve straight line stability at speed.
Replacement polycarbonate shells for this model are offered by Tamiya and third party vendors, which is useful if you plan multiple liveries or track sessions.
A reliable 2-channel radio with adjustable expo and a mid-torque steering servo will help deliver predictable steering and throttle modulation.
