The Ferrari 458 Challenge evolved from the 458 Italia and was introduced in 2009 to succeed the F430. Equipped with a 4,500cc engine producing 570ps at 9,000rpm and refined with feedback from Michael Schumacher, the car is a pure track tool. Tamiya recreates that pedigree in a 1/10 scale assembly on the TT-02 chassis.
The TT-02 chassis provides a reliable, modular base suitable for newcomers and experienced modders. It enhances the earlier TT-01 with modern battery options and easier adjustments. The 4WD drivetrain delivers stable grip and predictable behaviour in tight corners.
Notable TT-02 qualities include disc-styled wheel hubs for realism, independent double wishbone geometry with friction dampers, and a front-to-rear motor and battery layout to aid balance. The chassis also permits an extra 4mm of clearance for alternative setups.
Tamiya 58560 Ferrari 458 Challenge TT-02 is a versatile kit for enthusiasts who value scale fidelity and upgrade paths. It balances easy assembly with options for handling tweaks.
