Tamiya 47427 - 1/10 XB Tyrrell P34 1976 Japanese GP Classic Replica  [47427]

Recreating a Rare F1 Experiment

The Tamiya 47427 - 1/10 XB Tyrrell P34 1976 Japanese GP is a careful scale recreation of the P34, featuring a detailed clear body and a largely pre-built chassis for easier starting. The six-wheel silhouette remains the model's defining talking point.

Design Features That Define the P34

By employing four small front wheels, the original P34 sought to reduce frontal area and sharpen cornering. This RC interpretation mirrors that concept and provides a distinct driving sensation alongside authentic looks.

Driving Notes and Recommended Setup

Check alignment across the front axle group and balance the suspension to tame understeer or oversteer. The Tamiya 47427 rewards careful setup; begin on flat tarmac and make incremental adjustments to find your preferred handling balance.

How It Compares to Other Models

Compared with modern sportier Tamiya offerings, the Tyrrell P34 is prized for its period accuracy and novelty rather than outright lap-time performance, making it a fine display model that still enjoys rewarding on-track sessions.

Collectors and hobby drivers will both find value in the Tamiya 47427 - 1/10 XB Tyrrell P34 1976 Japanese GP thanks to its accurate styling and the quirky driving traits of the six-wheel layout.
