Tamiya 58272 1/10 RCC Corvette C5-R TA04-S Performance Kit  [58272]

Racing Pedigree Behind the Tamiya 58272 Corvette C5-R

RC fans who enjoy authentic race replicas will appreciate the Tamiya 58272 - 1/10 RCC Corvette C5-R (TA04-S). Modeled after the Corvette C5-R that scored an overall victory at the 2001 Daytona 24-hour event, this kit includes a factory pre-painted polycarbonate body so builders can focus on assembly and setup.

Inside the TA04-S Chassis

The TA04-S layout is engineered for controlled track performance. A reinforced resin double-deck frame houses a dual-belt 4WD drive train for smooth power delivery. Ball bearings in critical gear and steering points help cut rotational resistance for crisper throttle and steering response.

Styling, Aerodynamics and Tuning

The C5-R bodywork is designed with track aero in mind, including a prominent rear wing and period-correct paint. The car runs a four-wheel independent suspension with double wishbones, allowing adjustable camber and toe to refine handling for different surfaces and driver preferences.

Tamiya 58272 offers a mix of historical styling and a tunable TA04-S platform that suits both collectors and drivers aiming to hone setup skills on sealed-body race cars.
