Tamiya Ferrari F80?

[BVC500]

Chris Harris on his YouTube channel drives the F80 during a Ferrari promotional event and wears a Tamiya T-shirt. Coincidence or worst kept secret that Tamiya will release the F80?

Would be great if they did.

If they did one wouldn't be announced until the Fall, they still have the '25 Prelude coming out this summer to get out first.

I dont think the tee means anything. chris harris collects old tamiya rc cars and featured them in one of his books. alpha model will be the first to do a f80

They've been suspiciously quiet in regards to that one. It's not part of the existing Ferrari stuff that's already done and awaiting release, or the publicly shared future projects.

I spotted that T shirt straight away! What a fun surprise.

I stopped trusting that guy when he said bad things about Miatas * suspicious face emoji *

I reckon it’s a chance of a future release. It would definitely make sense as they’ve done the F40, F50, Enzo (F60) and LaFerrari (F70). Obviously they need the license to do it. I hope they do it but also the Ferrari 499P (winner if the last 3 LeMans races) and McLaren W1 would be cool too. Cheers.
