Heritage Racer Tamiya 58749 - 1/10 Audi R8 LMS 2008 TT-02 Remote Control On-Road Car Kit  [58749]

Accessible GT Modelling with the Tamiya Audi R8 LMS 2008

This Tamiya Audi R8 LMS 2008 kit offers a user-friendly route into GT modelling. The polycarbonate body reflects the race car lines while keeping the build straightforward and durable for everyday use.

R8 LMS Racing Roots, Shrunk to 1/10

Introduced in 2008, the Audi R8 LMS featured a 5.2 litre V10 and GT3 style engineering. This RC version channels that racing character into a compact model that emphasises handling and scale realism over outright power.

TT-02: Simple Platform with Plenty of Scope

The TT-02 chassis is prized for its simplicity and tuning potential. Its shaft-driven 4WD ensures composed handling, and the symmetrical suspension parts make repairs or setup changes quick and predictable.

Practical Driving Advice for New Owners

Use the stock TT-02 geometry to learn the car's balance, then progress to small adjustments like gear ratio and tyre choice for different track conditions. The supplied black 16-spoke wheels and slick tyres give an authentic feel on flat, sealed surfaces.

Styled after the Audi R8 LMS, this TT-02 based kit offers realistic looks with a chassis that supports steady learning and future upgrades.
