TRF415 MSXX Heritage and Race Pedigree

Among track-focused builders, the Tamiya 42104 TRF415 MSXX Marc Rheinard 2007 Edition stands out for its race-proven roots and attention to detail. Inspired by Marc Rheinard's competitive setups, this kit recreates the components and layout that perform in high level touring car competition.

Chassis Details and Material Choices

The model uses a layered carbon layout for strength and tuning flexibility. A 2.5mm carbon lower deck gives a stiff base while a 2mm upper deck is shaped to translate chassis roll into sharper cornering balance. The race-grade direct drive layout supports quick throttle response and precise traction control during hard acceleration.

Track-Tuned Features and Durability

Designed with speed and serviceability in mind, the kit includes a rear ball differential and reversible suspension arms to dial handling as track conditions change. TRF-style dampers combined with titanium coated suspension pins and steel wheel axles deliver robust durability under race stress. The separate rear upper brace and period-correct decals complete the authentic build.

This Tamiya 42104 TRF415 MSXX Marc Rheinard 2007 Edition is well suited to experienced racers who want an authentic, tuneable touring car platform with competitive DNA.

Racers usually install a 13.5 to 21.5 motor depending on class, a proportional ESC rated for the motor, a compact digital servo for steering, and a 2S or 3S LiPo pack that fits the chassis layout.
The kit requires careful assembly and basic setup skills; it is best suited to hobbyists comfortable with precision parts, bearing installs, and damper servicing.
Start with ride height and camber, then tune spring rate and damper rebound to match grip level. Reversing suspension arms can help balance understeer or oversteer.
Yes, the Marc Rheinard edition reproduces period-specific components and decals, making it appealing to both competitive drivers and collectors.
