Tamiya Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA Club Racer MB-01 Chassis RC Car Kit 58732
Tamiya 1/10 MB-01 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint 2WD Electric RC Rally Car Kit
Overview
The MB-01 is the latest addition to the M-chassis series, which has been popular among users of all levels since its inception in December 1994. The series is known for its cost-effective kits, a wide variety of bodies to choose from, and ease of maintenance and control. The all-new MB-01 chassis offers a continuation of the popular M-chassis series by providing cost-effective kits with easy maintenance and control for users of all levels. With the ability to choose from three types of wheelbases and a front or rear-wheel drive system, the MB-01 allows for six unique setups.
In this iteration, the MB-01 adopts a mid wheelbase configuration with a rear motor and rear-wheel drive (MR) setup on top of which sits the small but mighty Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA! Born in 1965, it was the result of a dedicated effort to create a lightweight, high-performance racing version of the 2-door coupe Giulia Sprint GT. Limited to just 500 units, this iconic model went on to achieve class champion status multiple times in the European Touring Car Championship during the late 1960s. Beyond the works car, it also earned recognition from various racing teams, leaving a lasting impression on the racetrack.
