Description
Tri Gale is a body designed for Tamiya's midship-motor MA chassis, with a three-pronged nose treatment that gives the front end its name: a jutting central nose flanked by left and right fenders. A large canopy stretches back from the cockpit to the rear of the car, itself flanked by a further pair of fenders. Metallic stickers and carbon-fibre-pattern graphics decorate the sides and nose. The kit rolls on silver fin-type wheels wrapped in 26mm low-profile tires.
The MA (Midship AERO) chassis places the motor at the car's centre for aerodynamic efficiency, and this version runs a 3.5:1 gear ratio with six individually mounted low-friction rollers and a rear skid bar. Its single-piece monocoque frame keeps assembly and maintenance straightforward.
