The Tamiya 58563 Ferrari 458 Challenge recreates the circuit-focused 458 Challenge in a 1/10 package. Launched in 2009 from the 458 Italia lineage and succeeding the F430, the original car benefited from input by Michael Schumacher and featured a 4,500cc engine with 570ps at 9,000 rpm. This RC model carries the same race intent on a compact TA-06 chassis.
The TA-06 platform is tuned for on-road driving and easy adjustment. As a 4WD design it delivers reliable grip and composure at speed. Its dual-drive layout pairs belt-driven front wheels with gear-driven rear wheels, creating a distinctive power delivery that can be set up for different handling characteristics.
Adjustability is a key trait of this kit. You can alter suspension geometry, camber and toe to suit driving style or venue. The sealed oil-filled gear differentials smooth out torque transfer, and the inboard front suspension keeps the bodyline tidy. Both newcomers and experienced tuners will find meaningful setup options here.
The Tamiya 58563 Ferrari 458 Challenge is suited to model builders who value scale accuracy and a chassis that responds well to setup changes.
