The Tyrrell P34 is a memorable piece of Grand Prix history and Tamiya 84263 faithfully reproduces that six-wheeled layout in 1/10 scale. The model represents the car campaigned at the 1977 Monaco GP, offering both display authenticity and a tunable platform for track use.
Built on a direct drive 2WD F103 chassis, the kit features a semi-double deck construction for controlled rigidity. The upper deck uses 1.5mm FRP and the lower deck is a beefy 2.5mm plate to resist flex. Front kingpin assemblies with coil springs operate the four front wheels through a single servo, while the rear T-bar, coil spring and friction plate provide steady rear behaviour under cornering loads.
Attention to period detail includes a polycarbonate body and decals for the Jody Scheckter and Patrick Depailler liveries. High-grip sponge tyres are fitted front and rear to maximise traction on smooth surfaces, and the integrated ball differential in the spur gear provides limited slip control for smoother corner exits.
The Tamiya 84263 Tyrrell P34 is ideal for enthusiasts who value accurate period modelling combined with a chassis that can be tuned for competitive running or polished display.
