DTM Heritage Captured in the Tamiya 57710

The Tamiya 57710 - 1/10 XB Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM 2000 Team D recreates the look of the touring car era with accurate body lines and the classic silver livery. It is a popular choice for enthusiasts who value authenticity alongside usable track performance.

What the TL-01 Chassis Brings

The TL-01 provides a simple, sturdy platform that is easy to maintain. It employs a shaft-driven, full-time 4WD system with sealed gearboxes front and rear to keep dirt out and ensure long-term reliability of the differential gears.

Braking, Suspension and Motor Placement

With double wishbone suspension and friction dampers the car balances shock absorption and cornering precision. The centrally mounted Type 540 motor offers dependable acceleration that suits a range of on-road layouts and tuning choices.

Radio, Electronics and Personalisation

Included is the wheel-type Adspec GP transmitter for conventional steering control. The kit's mechanical speed control is a candidate for an electronic replacement for improved throttle modulation. Enthusiasts can tweak tyres, fit optional hop-ups and adjust setup to match driving style or circuits.

Yes, converting to a brushless motor and a compatible ESC is a common upgrade that increases power and efficiency, though you should check motor bay clearance and gearing.
Spare parts for the TL-01 platform are widely available, including gear sets, suspension components and hop-up items to keep the car running for years.
Select tyres designed for on-road touring cars and match compound to the surface; softer compounds increase grip but wear faster, while harder compounds last longer.
Inspect gearbox seals periodically, clean any visible grime and replace gear oil or grease as needed to prevent wear and maintain smooth operation.
