Stock is as the vehicle ships. Calculated is worked from the stock figures on this page rather than stored beside them, so the two cannot drift apart. Not applicable means the vehicle does not come with it, like the motor on a roller or the tires on a race kit, or does not have one, like a KV rating on a brushed motor. Not published means it exists but no source we could find prints it.
How these numbers were settled
Tamiya publishes 'Gear Ratio: 14.7:1' and 'Tire Width/Diameter 58mm/130mm front and rear' on both the English and Japanese pages.
- No tooth counts are published, so the pinion, spur and transmission and axle ratio are left blank as unknown, not as not applicable.
- Brushed RS-540 motor, rear-wheel drive.
- The 130mm tires are the largest among the Tamiya kits listed and make the effective rollout much longer than 14.7:1 alone suggests.
- Unassembled kit with no battery; the motor is brushed, so KV and cell count do not apply.
