The yearning of that time starts running

Lamborghini Countach where prototype is announced by the Geneva show 1971, can surprise the automobile fan in the world. The future style of wedge Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers, Europe of course the midship mounted V type 12 cylinder DOHC engine in vertical ranging, furthermore the transmission, you call the clutch and the engine from before, usually the mechanism which adopts the power train arrangement of front and back opposite attracted big attention. As for first mass production type and LP400 debutting 1974. After that, passing LP400S of improved, the fact that it has become the 3rd generation model is LP500S. LP500S which appears in the Geneva show 1982 has the front spoiler and the over fender front and back same as LP400S, prepares also the rear wing with option. The engine aerodynamic volume displacement from 3929cc was expanded by 4754cc, detail of the internal equipment was refined. Lamborghini Countach LP500S where approximately 320 units are produced by 1985. The existence impression that way, high performance running can enjoy also the style which overflows by the RC car.

Shaft 4WD and TT-01 TYPE-E that improves running further are adopted

The chassis is TT-01 TYPE-E of length putting motor shaft drive 4WD. The upper deck and the gear cover made of fiberglass reinforced nylon resin were secured for the mainframe of the bathtub type, and it equipped and a high chassis rigidity was secured. The steering wheel system is a type of movement that play is few and smooth. divide into three. The characteristic of control is demonstrated together with equipped Defgiya etc. low center of gravity, the good balance design, four-wheel double wishbone suspension, and back and forth. Moreover, the number of parts is reduced, easiness to assemble is valued, and the body composition with a little part where the setting is necessary that treats easily is a charm. Of course, optional option parts are built in and the performance improvement is also possible.

Upright
The improvement lights in the back and forth are parts only for TT-01 TYPE-E
that strength is high and Gata is few.

Steering wheel
The steering wheel of the type divide into three uses the aluminum pipe for the post. Smooth movement with a little play is invented.

Damper Stay
Damper Stay and the gear cover are special parts of another body structure. The damper installation point is set up in Damper stay. two places

Upper deck
Upper deck made of fiberglass mixing nylon resin. The chassis rigidity is improved.

Stand for the transponder that can be called necessaries of the race is installed in the
