The Toyota 86 made a mark at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show for its engaging balance and clean styling, later sold under names like GT-86 and Scion FR-S. Tamiya brings that same dynamic look to the 1/10 scale Tamiya 57851, offering an RC that reflects the coupe's sporty silhouette and handling focus.
The TT-01DE chassis fitted to the Tamiya 57851 delivers dependable handling and stability. With a shaft-driven 4WD system the model sends power efficiently to all wheels, making it suitable for sealed surfaces and indoor tracks. The chassis layout supports straightforward setup tweaks for different driving styles.
Supplied RTR, the polycarbonate shell reproduces the Toyota 86 lines including mirrors and airflow shapes. The finished body is ready for immediate running and can be personalised with different wheels, tyres and decals.
New drivers will appreciate the Tamiya 57851's durability and ease of use. For improved lap times try changing suspension rates, experimenting with tyre compounds or fitting a higher torque motor to boost acceleration on technical sections.
The Tamiya 57851 blends scale authenticity with a chassis that is easy to live with and tune, making it a good choice for club racers and modders who like to personalise their cars.
