Don Almeido pays scale tribute to Ford’s Le Mans conquering GT with his special Red Card issue Tamiya F103GT with its carbon lower chassis. To that he added a 19T Corally brushless motor on an aluminum motor mount, with a HobbyWing speed control. To that he added a carbon wing plate, plus Tamiya’s TRF middle damper, aluminum ball diff, and aluminum servo holder. He installed a TRG carbon diffuser plus titanium turn buckles and servo saver.   The body is Protoform’s Ford GT, complete with tail lights and exhaust and wearing no. 66 as it was campaigned at Le Mans in 2016.
