Product Description
The Tyrrell P34 caused a sensation within the F1 world when it was unveiled in 1975.
Derek Gardner sought to enhance braking and cornering performance by reducing the size of the drag-inducing front tires while preserving contact patch area through the use of 4 tires, thereby creating the only 6-wheeled machine in F1 history.
It took part in actual races beginning with the Spanish GP in 1976, and drivers J. Scheckter and P. Depailler went on to drive their cars to a 1-2 finish at the Swedish GP to prove the incredible potential of the P34.
At the final race of the season, the P34 appeared before Japanese fans at the inaugural Japanese GP held at Fuji Speedway. F1 race cars often have race-specific modifications, and the No.3 Tyrrell P34 driven by J. Scheckter at the Japanese GP was distinguished by a triangular net guard fitted on the air funnel and large wingtip panels on the rear wing. The race was a battle for the championship between Ferraris N. Lauda and McLarens J. Hunt and drew a great deal of attention both within Japan and around the world.
Tamiya have now released this 1:10th scale self assembly model featuring a highly detailed polycarbonate bodyshell version of the classic Tyrrell P34 on a special chassis based on the F103.
