Tamiya 58308 - 1/10 Ford Focus RS WRC '03 TT-01 Rally Replica Kit  [58308]

Celebrating a Rally Icon with the TT-01 Platform

The Tamiya 58308 Ford Focus RS WRC '03 captures the aggressive look of the 2003 rally car and brings that heritage to the bench and track. This version honours the model that scored decisive wins in events like the Acropolis and Finland rallies, delivering a faithful scale tribute for collectors and weekend racers.

TT-01 Chassis That Balances Ease and Reliability

The TT-01 chassis is prized for simple assembly and dependable on-track behavior, making it a popular pick for newer builders and casual competitors alike. Its shaft-driven 4WD layout gives steady traction while the longitudinal motor layout improves straight-line stability. The bathtub style chassis keeps the battery flat to lower the centre of gravity, and independent double wishbone suspension plus sealed differentials provide predictable cornering and control.

Scale Accuracy and Build Detail

The clear polycarbonate body reproduces the Focus RS WRC '03 profile with crisp lines and genuine rally proportions, ready for polycarbonate paint to match period liveries. Note that this kit requires a 7.2V battery, charger, 2-channel radio set and an electronic speed controller to complete running gear, which allows hobbyists to choose electronics that suit their driving style.

The Tamiya 58308 Ford Focus RS WRC '03 on the TT-01 chassis makes a solid project for builders who want a historically inspired rally car with durable mechanics. It blends a rewarding kit build with a chassis that is easy to maintain and tune for varied driving surfaces.
