Miniature Abarth 500 Assetto Corse for Club Runs

The Tamiya 57798 RC RTR Abarth 500 Assetto Corse reproduces the compact racer in 1/10 scale with accurate body lines and the signature red stripe livery. Inspired by the one-make series from 2008, this ready-built model balances scale authenticity with everyday durability for track and practice sessions.

M-05 Layout for Tight Handling

The model uses the M-05 semi-monocoque resin chassis to keep weight low and simplify the build. Its front-wheel-drive layout together with neatly arranged drivetrain and electronics produces a well-centered mass and a low center of gravity, which helps the car stay composed when cornering hard.

Responsive Suspension and Grip

Equipped with independent double wishbone suspension at all four corners and a 3-piece steering linkage, the car reacts cleanly to driver inputs. The 60D radial tyres on 11-spoke wheels offer steady grip on paved surfaces, making the car predictable whether you are learning lines or pushing for lap consistency.
