Scale Rally Replica Based on the Lancer Evolution VI

Enthusiasts of rally history will enjoy the Tamiya 58257 - 1/10 Lancer Evolution VI WRC on the TB-01 chassis, which blends authentic styling with hands-on build work. The kit recreates the spirit of Tommi Makinen's championship runs in a detailed 1/10 assembly.

Chassis Layout and Drive System

The TB-01 features a lengthwise motor with a shaft-driven 4WD setup to promote a low center of gravity for steady cornering. The flat placement of the radio gear and battery across the main frames keeps weight centralized for predictable behaviour.

Rally-Oriented Suspension Setup

With fully independent double wishbone suspension and oil-filled shocks, the model is tuned to absorb uneven surfaces while keeping contact patch consistency. Rubber rally block tyres add traction on loose dirt and gravel tracks.

Built to Withstand Outdoor Use

Protective design elements like sealed gearcases and a clear top cover help keep dust and debris out of critical components. This makes routine running and clean-up easier after off-road sessions.
