Why the Buggy Champ Still Matters

The Tamiya 84105 TT-Gear Buggy Champ 2009 GB02 Blue Kit is a 1/10 scale model that mixes nostalgic looks with practical engineering. The striking blue polycarbonate shell sits on a stout GB-02 chassis that is friendly to both tuning and maintenance.

Key Points About the GB-02 Platform

The GB-02 monocoque frame places the battery and radio gear low for improved centre of gravity. Its double trailing arm suspension lets you dial in handling changes quickly, making it adaptable to loam, hard pack and mixed terrains.

On-Track Attributes and Kit Contents

The kit arrives with full ball bearings, a ball differential, a slipper clutch and universal shafts for consistent power delivery. The tread-style tyres deliver reliable grip and the pre-finished blue body saves time at the paint bench.

The Tamiya 84105 TT-Gear Buggy Champ 2009 GB02 Blue Kit remains a solid choice for hobbyists who want a tuneable, classic-style buggy that is straightforward to upgrade.

What upgrades give the biggest handling gains?

Improving damping with better shocks and adjusting spring rates typically yields the biggest handling improvements. Also ensure suspension geometry is set for your surface.

Can I run the buggy competitively?

It can be used for club-level informal racing, but competitive classes may favour more modern platforms and brushless power. The Buggy Champ is great for practice and retro events.

How do I maintain the drivetrain?

Regular cleaning, inspection of universal shafts and checking slipper clutch adjustment will keep the drivetrain running smoothly. Replace worn bearings as needed.

Are replacement parts easy to find?

Spare parts and upgrade components for Tamiya models are widely available through hobby stores and online retailers. Common wear items are easy to source.

Should I run foam or rubber inserts?

Foam inserts can stabilise handling and are useful on smoother tracks, while softer rubber inserts suit looser surfaces. Try both to see which matches your driving style.
