The Tamiya 58502 Zen is aimed at hardcore Mini 4WD racers who appreciate measured setup and stable lap times. Drawing on a 1990s designer heritage, this model uses the Super-II platform to deliver race-oriented balance and predictable handling. The Zen name reflects that focus on steady performance and driver control.
The core of the model is the Super-II bathtub chassis made of lightweight ABS resin. It houses a rear-mounted motor in a rear-wheel drive layout to promote neutral weight distribution and consistent cornering behavior. The chassis layout supports tight tuning and reliable durability on the track.
This kit features a 4-wheel independent double wishbone arrangement with C.V.A. oil-filled dampers and monocoque-style lower arms. The suspension soaks up track transitions and keeps the car composed through chicanes and fast sweepers, helping drivers maintain straight-line speed and stability.
The tyre design pairs front spiked tyres with three ribs for steering stability and rear spiked tyres with an X-pattern for drive grip. This front/rear approach ensures controlled turn-in and firm traction when accelerating out of corners.
Built for racers who value heritage and setup, the Tamiya 58502 Zen combines a proven chassis and competition-minded suspension to perform consistently on club tracks.
