Balanced Handling with the Yokomo GT1-01B

The Yokomo GT1-01B blends aerodynamic GT styling with a layout aimed at stable high speed driving. With its Type-B shell and considered chassis geometry, this platform rewards thoughtful setup and precise inputs on the track.

Why the GT1-01B Works on Circuit

The car's low-profile GT shape and semi-slick radial tyres give a stable footprint that helps with consistent corner exit and mid-corner balance. This lets drivers focus on smooth control rather than fighting unpredictable behaviour.

Options for Setup and Adjustments

Drivers can tweak front suspension and wheelbase settings to shift the car's balance toward understeer or more rotation, depending on track layout. The GT1-01B's straightforward layout makes experimenting with setups quick and repeatable.

Community Racing and Support

Owners often find value in group tuning sessions and event meets that highlight setup choices and driving technique. The GT1-01B is a good platform for learning how small changes affect lap times.

Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

What suspension changes give more front bite?

Increasing front spring preload or tightening kingpin geometry typically increases front grip and turn-in. Try small steps and test lap times to find the best balance.

Is body trimming required right away?

Basic trimming for clearance and airflow is recommended out of the box, but extensive body mods are optional and depend on personal aerodynamics preferences.

Which battery fits without alterations?

Use a short size Li-po battery as specified for correct fit and centre of gravity. Standard short packs from common brands will mount without chassis changes.
