The Tamiya 58680 brings the Toyota Gazoo Racing TS050 Hybrid to 1/10 scale with accurate lines and a robust polycarbonate body. This kit reproduces key race details while staying practical for model workshop finishing and occasional track sessions.
The F103GT underpinnings are tuned for consistent behaviour and easy handling adjustments. With rear-wheel drive and a compact layout, the chassis responds predictably to setup changes, making it suitable for refining corner entry and exit balance.
The TS050 Hybrid made its mark with hybrid systems and endurance victories. This replica gives hobbyists a chance to study the car's shape and decals while building a model that reflects its competition heritage.
Start with tyre selection and basic suspension changes to find a comfortable setup. Regular checks of drive shafts and wheel hexes will keep the model running smoothly as you test different gearing and motor options.
Tamiya 58680 is a rewarding project for modellers who enjoy detailed builds and setup experimentation, delivering a nice balance between display fidelity and track potential.
