The Team Lotus 99T Honda is a memorable car from the 1987 Formula 1 season, campaigned by Ayrton Senna and Satoru Nakajima. Its computer-controlled Active Suspension and turbocharged Honda V6 made it competitive on tight street circuits like Monaco and Detroit. Tamiya reproduces that legacy in this detailed 1/10 scale kit.
The F103 FRP semi-double deck frame used on the Tamiya 84191 delivers a light but sturdy base. The direct drive 2WD configuration ensures minimal drivetrain loss, and the high-grip sponge tyres help produce crisp steering and reliable corner entry for hobby racers.
The polycarbonate body is shaped to mirror the low-profile Lotus 99T silhouette, and the included decals recreate the No.11 race markings. With a 260mm wheelbase and a weight near 660g, the kit is tuned for a balance of scale looks and practical handling characteristics.
Tamiya 84191 offers a faithful historic look with straightforward RC mechanics, making it a practical pick for builders who appreciate classic F1 models.
