Tamiya 57761 XB Open Interface SC 430 TT-01 RTR - Tom's Livery Replica  [57761]

A Track Icon Recreated: Tamiya 57761 XB Open Interface SC 430

The Tamiya 57761 XB Open Interface SC 430 reproduces a standout Super GT racer in miniature form. Styled after the Lexus SC430 that featured in the 2006 championship, this Expert Built model reflects the same aerodynamic profile that helped secure victory at Fuji Speedway. Tamiya packages that race history into an RTR car suitable for display or road circuit use.

Overview of the TT-01 Road Chassis

The TT-01 chassis provides a straightforward foundation with proven dynamics. Its shaft-driven 4WD layout promotes stable straight-line and cornering control. The bathtub frame keeps electronics and battery low for better balance, while the double wishbone suspension and differential gears help the car stay composed through typical on-road conditions.

Livery Accuracy and Running Gear

This model sports a detailed polycarbonate body that mirrors the Open Interface Tom's SC430 No. 36, associated with drivers Juichi Wakisaka and Andre Lotterer. Paired with race-style wheels and slick tyres, the setup emphasises authentic appearance and track-oriented traction. A Type RS540 motor is included to deliver reliable power for club runs and practise sessions.

For modellers who appreciate a faithful race replica on a user-friendly chassis, the Tamiya 57761 XB Open Interface SC 430 strikes a good balance between scale fidelity and straightforward driving characteristics.
