Tamiya 58482 Stadium Blitzer 2010 Retro Stadium Truck Kit  [58482]

Classic Stadium Truck Returns in Updated Form

First launched in 1992, the Stadium Blitzer earned a firm place in hobbyists' garages. The 2010 reissue keeps the 2WD stadium truck character while adding a user-friendly layout that blends nostalgia with practical handling. The ABS resin bathtub chassis stays lightweight yet durable, giving easy access for routine maintenance and setup tweaks.

Chassis and Suspension Details

This model features independent front and rear suspension with monocoque-style lower arms that are engineered for strength without excess weight. Heavy-duty oil-filled shocks smooth out rough runs and help maintain control. The front tyres use a triple rib and pin spike layout for straight-line stability, while the rear tyres pair pin spikes with an X pattern to boost traction on loose surfaces.

Body, Balance and Driveability

The polycarbonate body is tough and featherweight, echoing the aggressive lines of full-size stadium trucks while keeping mass low. The kit preserves the original 1992 livery for that nostalgic appeal. Sealed differential gears and a low centre of gravity work together to sharpen handling on club tracks and backyard courses alike.

Tamiya 58482 Stadium Blitzer 2010 is a solid choice for builders who want classic stadium truck styling combined with straightforward, dependable performance for both casual runs and track days.
