Scale Racer Based on a DTM Contender

The Tamiya 58317 CLK-DTM 2002 AMG-Mercedes brings a DTM race car to the hobby bench at 1/10 scale. Built on the TB-02 chassis, it reproduces the aggressive stance and aerodynamic intent of the original AMG-Mercedes race machine.

Chassis Details for Tunable Handling

The TB-02 platform features a bathtub frame for neutral handling and reduced roll, paired with double wishbone suspension and oil-filled dampers for consistent feedback. The assembly includes an aluminium propeller shaft and ball differentials front and rear to support competitive setup changes.

Faithful Styling and Drive Setup

With a pronounced rear wing and race-style bodywork, the model mirrors its full-size inspiration. The motor is placed longitudinally and the shaft-driven 4WD system plus the supplied RS-540 motor provide a balanced drive suitable for club circuits and scale events.
