Tamiya 2003 Ford Focus RS Custom Painted (TT-02)

Tamiya 2003 Ford Focus RS Custom Painted (TT-02)

Using the simple to construct and operate TT-02 chassis, this R/C model assembly kit replicates the rally-focused 2003 Ford Focus RS Custom. Christian Loriaux, the chief engineer of the Ford Motor Co. Team, modified the Focus in 2003 in a number of ways, including the seat position, roll cage, and suspension. He also increased aerodynamics by changing the design of the bumper, moving the hood intake, adding a huge rear wing, and more. With 550 Nm and 300 PS, the 2-liter inline-4 turbo engine was powerful. Through four Manufacturer rankings during its seven-year competition career, this rally car demonstrated its strength. Without sponsor insignia, this kit replicates a modified street version.

TT-02: Balanced and adaptable shaft-driven 4WD
The 4WD shaft-driven To provide exceptional stability, the TT-02 chassis has a longitudinal arrangement with the motor on the right and the battery on the left. It also has easy-to-assemble left and right suspension arms and uprights, as well as maintenance-free gearboxes. With two distinct wheelbases, two ground clearance settings, two tread setups, and ten possible gear ratios, this chassis is incredibly versatile. With its chic front bumper supports and wheel hubs styled like brake discs, it doesn't lack style either.
