Miniature Racing Icon: Tamiya Honda HSV-010

Tamiya's 1/10 scale Honda HSV-010 recreates the Weider-liveried Super GT500 car in close-to-scale form, making it a solid choice for enthusiasts who value authenticity and setup potential. The accurate body lines and livery recreate the race-day look in miniature.

Race Pedigree Behind the Model

Team Weider's HSV-010 left a lasting mark on the 2010 Super GT season, securing pole and a victory at Okayama and adding strong finishes at circuits such as Sepang and Sugo. Their campaign culminated in a championship result, which this kit commemorates in scale.

TT-01E Chassis Traits for Tuners

The TT-01 Type-E chassis provides a stable base that is forgiving yet tuneable. The low-mounted motor and battery help reduce roll and improve balance, while reinforced nylon components add strength. Steering benefits from a 3-piece tie rod layout and the drive train uses a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement with double wishbone suspension and durable diffs for club-level competition.

Realistic Accessories and Running Options

Separate parts like the rear wing and mirrors increase realism, and the integrated LED fixtures replicate headlights and taillights for dusk runs. Ten-spoke race wheels fitted with radial tyres match the full-size appearance, and an extra set of slicks on 6-spoke wheels is supplied for lower-drag track days.

The Tamiya Honda HSV-010 TT-01E is well suited to builders who want a period-correct model and a chassis that responds to setup changes. Remember that the radio and ESC are not included, giving you freedom to choose electronics to match your driving goals.

The kit wheels are chosen for a realistic stance, but slight negative offset or shims can widen the track for improved cornering stability. Check local race rules before altering track width for events.
Aftermarket metal gears, stronger drive shafts and higher-spec differentials are common upgrades for durability and reduced drivetrain flex, especially under higher power setups.
Slick tyres generally yield faster lap times on smooth asphalt due to lower rolling resistance, while the radials offer more predictable grip across mixed surfaces and variable temperatures.
Yes, with careful painting and detailing the model makes an attractive display piece; the separate parts and accurate decals allow for a show-quality finish as well as track performance.
