1973 was a dream year for the Porsche 911 Carrera RSR. The legendary Group 4 car won no fewer than three international races to go along with seven domestic wins, and a glorious twelve months was capped with victory in the famed Targa Florio race held in Sicily. This is an R/C model assembly kit recreating the car, and the polycarbonate body accurately replicates its unmistakable form with wide front and rear fenders. The famous marking scheme can be recreated using paints and the included decals to depict the Martini stripes, numbers, sponsor logos and more. Front and rear 2-piece assembly wheels are mounted with racing slick tires for assured handling.
The shaft driven 4WD TT-02 chassis employs a longitudinal layout with the battery on the left and the motor on the right, to offer excellent stability. In addition, it features identical left and right suspension arms and uprights for ease of assembly, plus easy-to-maintain gearboxes. It is a highly adaptable chassis, as it offers 2 different wheelbases, 2 ground clearance settings and 2 tread set-ups in addition to a range of 10 possible gear ratios. It is not short on looks either, with brake disc-shaped wheel hubs and stylish front bumper supports.
