The Tamiya 58642-60A Team Reinert Racing Truck is a scale-accurate kit that puts a famous ETRC machine into modeller hands. At 1/10 scale, the model recreates the MAN TGS form and period sponsor graphics for an eye-catching presence on the road.
The real Team Reinert Racing MAN TGS packed a 1,100hp turbo diesel and worked through a Mechanical 16-speed ZF gearbox to tackle circuit loads. Tamiya captures the truck outline and season-specific decals to reflect that motorsport heritage.
The TT-01 Type-E is known for simple construction and reliable handling. It includes a shaft-driven 4WD arrangement, independent suspension with oil-filled dampers, and gear differentials that combine to produce stable performance on smooth surfaces.
Try swapping tyre compounds to suit your running surface since the supplied 70mm radial tyres recreate race tyre behaviour. The chassis also accepts Tamiya LED Light Units if you want to fit working lights for display or night runs.
Combining period-correct visuals with an easy-to-work TT-01 Type-E platform, this Tamiya Team Reinert Racing Truck is a strong choice for builders who want both display quality and road-worthy handling.
