Tamiya 42318 - 1/10 TRF103 Formula Chassis Kit - Carbon Formula Chassis  [42318]

TRF103 Carbon Formula Chassis Overview

The Tamiya 42318 - TRF103 Chassis Kit showcases Tamiya engineering with a purpose-built 1/10 formula layout. Crafted for hobbyists focused on lap-time tuning, the kit pairs a carbon fiber deck with thoughtful mounting points for precise setup work.

Carbon Fiber Build and Fine Tuning

The core of the TRF103 is its carbon fiber lower and upper decks and carbon front arms, giving a low weight and high torsional stiffness. The design supports adjustable front camber and caster through the upper arm geometry, allowing racers to dial in grip and turn-in response.

Selectable Rear Suspension Configurations

The TRF103 offers two rear suspension choices to match track grip. Use the link-style layout for high-grip circuits or switch to the T-bar arrangement for lower grip or smoother transitions. This makes the chassis adaptable across varying surfaces.

Setup Tips for Experienced Drivers

Advanced users will appreciate the ability to shift the rear shaft to alter wheelbase for different handling balance. Combined with aluminum servo mounts and the supplied TRF damper, the kit is suited to detailed tuning and component upgrades.

The Tamiya TRF103 chassis kit suits drivers who want to refine handling through chassis geometry and suspension choice, delivering a stable yet tunable platform for on-road competition.
