Heritage race car recreated for hobbyists

Enthusiasts will welcome Tamiya's compact reproduction of the Porsche 935 Martini, built on the GT-01 platform. The model captures the racing silhouette and iconic Martini livery while remaining a practical, driveable RC kit.

Designed for stable, responsive driving

The GT-01 chassis uses a low centre of gravity and lightweight components to promote steady handling. Powered by a Type 370 motor with a rear-wheel-drive layout, the model behaves similarly to the real 935. The suspension layout features independent double wishbones all round and horizontally mounted dampers up front for predictable control.

Durable, accurate bodywork

The polycarbonate shell reproduces the 935's aerodynamic shapes and big rear wing while keeping weight low. Reverse body mounts preserve the clean profile and the driver figure boosts realism. The kit includes an ESC, receiver, servo, and transmitter, with the battery and charger requiring separate purchase.

Upgrade paths and setup tips

Owners can tailor the car with a range of option parts to suit track work or display. Common upgrades include differentials, clutch components, and driveline pieces to refine traction and durability.

The Tamiya 56709 Porsche 935 Martini on GT-01 is a versatile pick for model racers and collectors who value authentic looks and tunable chassis options.

Basic modelling tools, a hobby knife, small screwdrivers, and thread-lock for metal screws will cover most of the assembly tasks. A fine file helps neat body openings.
Yes, on-road club events that allow scale GT models will welcome this car, provided you fit compliant batteries and tyres for the class rules.
Clean the chassis, check drive shafts and suspension for wear, and verify wheel hexes and screw tightness. Lubricate moving parts as needed and inspect the polycarbonate body for cracks.
Masking and polycarbonate-specific paints make repainting straightforward. Practice on spare panels and allow adequate drying time before applying decals.
