The Toyota GT-One TS020 is a standout from endurance racing, notably competing in the 1999 24 Hours of Le Mans at the Circuit de la Sarthe. Built with a carbon fibre composite body and driven by a 3600cc V8 twin-turbo R36V engine, the GT-One was a serious contender until a late tyre failure altered its result, yet it left a lasting motorsport legacy.
Tamiya's 1/24 scale kit reproduces the GT-One's aerodynamic design in fine detail, from the sculpted nose to the rear diffuser. The removable rear cowl allows the modelled V8 twin-turbo engine to be displayed, offering insight into the car's mechanical design after construction.
Suitable for experienced modellers, the kit includes decals for two different car numbers and masking seals to aid painting precision. The completed model makes an impressive display that honours the GT-One's performance at Le Mans.
