Tamiya

Regular price $66.00

Since its debut back in 1964, the Porsche 911 stable has established unparalleled esteem, both on streets and in competitions. The "GT2" is a race-ready version developed for the world's GT racing events.

The traditional 911 styling has been aerodynamically refined, yet retains the unmistakable identity of the series. The rear-mounted engine is the hallmark of the 911 series, powered by a water-cooled, horizontally opposed six-cylinder unit. This 3.6-liter powerplant is coupled with twin-turbochargers, yielding an awesome 400 plus horsepower output. The six-speed gearbox efficiently transmits this abundance of power to the rear wheels. Front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link suspension system has a sophisticated geometry for the utmost control during high speed running. The large, 380mm diameter brake disks are ventilated to take the racing abuse. They are equipped with ABS (anti-lock braking system), for the positive stopping power and safety. The unique front spoiler, with its up-turned ends, is the result of thorough wind tunnel testing. A huge, two-tier rear spoiler is equipped with air ducts on both sides. The riveted over fenders add to its aggressive looks.

During the 1995 Japanese GT Car Championships, Porsche entered a fleet of their GT2's, including three entries from Team Taisan. Each of Taisan's machines scored a victory during the season, bringing the coveted title to the team.
