Collectors and club racers will appreciate the Tamiya 47486 Tyrrell P34 Six-Wheeler 1977 Argentine GP Limited Edition as a faithful miniature of a radical F1 design. The kit highlights the P34's signature six-wheel concept at true 1/10 scale for display and running sessions.
The P34's extra front wheels were aimed at improving front grip and reducing lift. The 1977 Argentine GP example used a fully cowled body, a detail replicated in this kit to reflect the period-correct look rather than the earlier cockpit openings.
Built on the simple and serviceable F103 chassis, the model is 2WD but delivers a different steering feel because of the four small front tyres. The RS-540 Sports Tuned Motor gives reliable performance and the sponge tyres help with predictable traction on carpet or smooth asphalt surfaces.
Enthusiasts can personalise gear ratios, paint finishes with Tamiya TS colours, and suspension settings to their preference. The kit includes clear assembly guidance so you can focus on finishing and dialling in the setup.
Whether you plan to display it or run it at local meets, the Tamiya Tyrrell P34 provides a hands-on build and a memorable driving feel inspired by 1970s F1 innovation.
