Tamiya 1/12 McLaren MP4/6 Honda #89721  [89721]

• 
  The McLaren MP4/6 Honda debuted during the United States Grand Prix, starting round of the 1991 Formula One period. Instead of the commonly utilized high-lift nose, it featured a slim, linear front section and high side pontoons sporting oblong radiator atmosphere intakes. Front wing-tips featured cylindrical vortex generators to give you smooth airflow and effective down force. Featuring front/ rear push-rod suspension and hydraulic dampers with interior sensors, the car's damper motion and motor operation had been checked by a telemetry system and may be analyzed inside pit. The six-speed transverse gearbox and RA121E V12 Honda engine showcased production of 780hp. The superior design and high-powered engine enabled the MP4/6 and motorist Ayrton Senna to just take 4 straight wins on U.S., Brazil, San Marino and Monaco GPs, followed closely by victories at Hungary, Belgium and Australia, with motorist G. Berger winning in Japan. Senna won the Drivers Title and McLaren took the Constructors Title in 1991.
