Master the Art of Drifting with Tamiya's NISMO Coppermix Silvia
Drifting has transcended from underground racing scenes to a celebrated motorsport, thanks in part to its portrayal in films like "Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift" and anime such as "Initial D." Tamiya captures this exhilarating sport with their 1/10 scale NISMO Coppermix Silvia, expertly mounted on the TT-01D chassis. This model is crafted for those who wish to experience the thrill of drift racing in an RC format.
The Legacy of the NISMO Coppermix Silvia
Unveiled at the 2005 NISMO Festival at Fuji Speedway, the NISMO Coppermix Silvia was a street-legal version of the renowned S15 Silvia. Known for its performance in drifting circuits, this car features a striking silver body adorned with red and black accents, capturing the essence of both style and speed. It remains a favorite among professional drifters and hobbyists alike.
Understanding Drift Racing
Drift racing involves skillfully sliding the rear tires while maintaining control and speed through corners. This dynamic driving style has captivated audiences globally. With Tamiya's RC kit, enthusiasts can simulate the excitement of drift racing without the wear and tear on real tires.

The chassis includes adjustable suspension, full ball bearings, a sport-tuned motor, and an aluminum heat sink to optimize performance.
