Racing Heritage Captured in 1/10 Scale

The Volkswagen Scirocco GT24 earned attention at endurance events with its notable results and eco-minded CNG racing program. The Tamiya 58508 recreates that racing presence in a compact 1/10 scale model, giving builders an authentic replica of the Nürburgring contender.

TT-01E Chassis: Simple to Build and Tune

The TT-01E chassis is favoured for straightforward assembly and dependable handling. This shaft-drive 4WD layout uses independent double wishbone suspension and gear differentials, and while it ships with plastic bushings, you can fit full ball bearings to reduce friction and boost durability. It is a solid starting point for on-road tuning and upgrades.

Scale Detail and Practical Upgrades

The kit includes a precisely molded polycarbonate body with decal sheets and masking film to reproduce the 2011 livery. Separate mirror and wing parts add depth to the build. LED lighting is not part of the kit but can be added afterwards for night running or display lighting.

The Tamiya 58508 is suitable for new builders and experienced racers alike, combining clear assembly steps with room for upgrades. Its realistic styling and tuning potential make it a strong addition to any on-road RC collection.

The kit uses the TT-01E platform which guides builders through a clear assembly process, making it a strong choice for first-time kit builders.
Upgrading to ball bearings reduces drivetrain drag and improves longevity, especially if you plan frequent running or higher speeds.
A standard 2.4 GHz radio, a compatible ESC and a 2S or 3S LiPo within motor limits work well; ensure the speed controller fits the size of the Tamiya 540 brushed motor if you keep the stock motor.
This on-road setup performs best on smooth asphalt, sealed car parks or indoor carpet tracks where the TT-01E suspension and tyres can shine.
