Tamiya 84067 - TRF801X 1/8 Nitro Racing Buggy Kit Race Platform  [84067]

Race-Oriented Design of the TRF801X

The Tamiya 84067 - TRF801X 1/8 Nitro Racing Buggy Kit is a purpose-built 1/8 nitro buggy aimed at informed hobbyists and racers. It pairs a stiff A7075 anodized duralumin chassis with a straight drive arrangement to promote consistent handling at speed.

Precision Parts for Repeatable Handling

The model includes a streamlined polycarbonate body and a pronounced wing to improve high-speed stability. With a 15 degree engine mount for better mass distribution and machined aluminium shock towers and steering knuckles, the kit emphasises durability and steering precision.

Comprehensive Adjustment Range

Racers can exploit dual battery mount positions to tune balance, use adjustable turnbuckles for steering geometry changes, and fit stabilisers front and rear to control roll and yaw. This flexibility supports a wide range of track conditions.

Reliable Powertrain and Brake System

The drivetrain uses universal drive shafts with sealed bevel differentials for low maintenance and smooth torque flow. Spiral-cut ring and pinion gears reduce backlash and noise. The 17mm hex hub format accepts common wheels and the twin 32mm brakes deliver dependable deceleration.

Overall, the TRF801X is a robust and tuneable platform for racers who demand component quality and straightforward setup options to hone lap times.
