Ferrari Modena styling on Tamiya TL01 underpinnings

The Tamiya 58289 - 1/10 Ferrari Modena TL01 Chassis Kit recreates the Ferrari 360 Modena Challenge lines while using the TL01 chassis platform prized for its manageable handling. The polycarbonate body keeps the silhouette true to the race car and the chassis provides a stable base for learning setup and tyre choices.

Chassis traits and driving character

The TL01 uses a lightweight monocoque frame with a shaft-driven 4WD system that gives reliable traction for sealed circuits and smooth surfaces. Independent double wishbone suspension helps maintain composure through corners and the sealed gearboxes protect bevel differentials for consistent power delivery. This layout makes the car predictable when trimming balance and steering feel.

Tuning pointers for better lap times

Designed to accept a Type 540 motor, the TL01 offers approachable power for a range of skill levels. Adjusting friction dampers, trialling different tyre compounds and tweaking toe and camber will noticeably change handling. The polycarbonate shell is lightweight and supports aero stability at speed while keeping cosmetic detail faithful to the original car.
