Miniature WRC legend in 1/10 form

For those passionate about rally racing, the Tamiya 58241 - 1/10 RC Ford Focus WRC TL-01 Chassis Kit brings a piece of motorsport history to life. The model captures the iconic Focus WRC styling while pairing it with the dependable TL-01 platform, making it a great pick for model builders who enjoy both accurate detailing and straightforward mechanics.

What the TL-01 delivers

The TL-01 platform is valued for its simplicity and resilience, which makes it easy to work on and tune. Its balanced layout helps encourage predictable cornering, and the independent double wishbone suspension smooths wheel motion across varied surfaces. The electric setup keeps power delivery steady for controlled runs.

Scale appeal and rally roots

The Ford Focus WRC earned its reputation through strong rally campaigns around the turn of the century. Reproducing it in 1/10 scale lets club racers and collectors enjoy a distinctive silhouette while adapting the model for modern RC upgrades.

Tips for getting sharper lap times

Upgrade to ball bearings to cut drivetrain drag and consider tyre choices to match your venue. Small tweaks to toe and camber can noticeably improve cornering. For a standout model, a personalised paint finish makes the car recognisable on and off the track.

Packed with period-accurate looks and a user-friendly chassis, this kit suits modellers who want a genuine rally replica that responds well to upgrades and tuning.

Build time varies by skill level but expect several evenings for careful assembly, plus extra time for painting and electronics installation.
Common upgrades include ball bearings, quality tyres for your surface, and a higher torque servo for crisper steering response.
Use polycarbonate paints, mask carefully for sharp lines, and apply thin coats to avoid loss of fit. Test colours on a spare panel before finalising.
