Compact Rally Icon Recreated for Street and Track

The Tamiya 58292 Ford Focus RS WRC pays homage to the 2002 World Rally Championship era, capturing the car campaigned by Carlos Sainz. This 1/10 scale kit delivers an authentic rally silhouette and sits on the trusted TL-01 chassis, giving both new builders and seasoned hobbyists a reliable platform for local club runs and practice laps.

TL-01 Chassis: Reliable Touring Base

The TL-01 chassis is known for straightforward assembly and solid on-road performance. Monocoque ABS construction keeps the frame stiff while the 4WD shaft drive provides consistent traction across paved and smooth surfaces. Double wishbone suspension helps keep handling predictable, making it a strong choice for learning setup basics and gaining seat time.

Authentic Bodywork and Scale Detail

Tamiya has recreated the Ford Focus RS WRC body in clear polycarbonate with accurate aerodynamic lines and an aggressive stance. The 10-spoke wheels and low-profile tires complement the scale look, and the shell paints up cleanly for a period-correct finish. The realistic appearance matches the mechanical layout, giving a convincing rally replica.

Tuning and Hop-Up Options

Builders can personalise the Tamiya 58292 with hop-up parts like longer suspension arms, upgraded gear sets, and universal shafts. These upgrades allow owners to tune steering response, top speed, and durability to suit street practice or club track conditions.
