Background…
From Tamiya’s website
Sophisticated Super Car
Unleashed on the world at the 2018 Geneva International Motor Show, this super car bears the name of legendary racer Ayrton Senna. Its body features extensive carbon fibre sections, and is designed for impeccable aerodynamics and cooling. Power is provided by an 800PS 4-litre V8 twin turbo engine. With only 500 produced, the McLaren Senna is hot property indeed.
