Tamiya TXT-1 Monster Truck 4WD Kit 58280
This is the 1/10th Scale Electric Powered, Radio Controlled, 4WD
TXT-1 (Tamiya Xtreme Truck) Monster Off Road Truck Kit.
Before developing this vehicle, Tamiya designers attended full-scale
monster truck events in the US to photograph the chassis,
suspensions and drivetrains of real monster trucks. This research has
resulted in a 1/10th scale monster truck with a very high level
of quality, life-like realism and pure performance.
