The Tamiya 1/10 Honda HSV-010 faithfully mirrors Team Weider's victorious 2010 Super GT500 machine, with a detailed body and authentic livery. This kit is aimed at modellers and drivers who want a true-to-life representation with scope for setup work.
The Weider-run HSV-010 made an immediate impression during the 2010 Super GT campaign, taking pole and a victory at Okayama and collecting podiums at venues such as Sepang and Sugo. Their consistent results led to a title win that year, making this car notable among GT fans.
The TT-01 Type-E chassis in this kit is appreciated for balance and reliability. Its low motor and battery stance help lower the centre of gravity, improving cornering. Reinforced nylon upper deck parts and gear covers increase torsional stiffness, while the 3-piece tie rod setup sharpens steering inputs. The platform features shaft-driven 4WD, double wishbones and sturdy differential gearing for race-oriented durability.
Detailed extras like a large rear spoiler and separate mirrors add scale accuracy, and LED head and tail lights allow for night runs. The car sits on 10-spoke wheels dressed with racing radial tyres, and an alternate set of slick tyres on 6-spoke rims is included to suit different track conditions.
The Tamiya Honda HSV-010 TT-01E balances collector appeal with a chassis that invites setup tweaks. Keep in mind the kit needs an ESC and radio system which are purchased separately, offering scope to tailor electronics for your driving style.
