Tamiya 58533 Volkswagen Golf24 TT-01E 1/10 RC Kit  [58533]

Racing Heritage Recreated: Tamiya 58533 Volkswagen Golf24

The Tamiya 58533 Volkswagen Golf24 captures the race-bred spirit of the real Golf24 that ran at the 2011 24 Hours Nurburgring. This RC kit mirrors the track pedigree with a detailed polycarbonate body shell and a platform built for on-road driving. The prototype car's 440hp inline 5-cylinder turbo and four-wheel drive layout inspired the model's focus on balanced handling.

Benefits of the TT-01E Platform

The TT-01E chassis is valued by hobbyists for predictable handling and straightforward assembly. Its 4WD drivetrain and fully independent double wishbone suspension deliver stable on-road manners, while the bell-crank steering and friction damper setup help with smooth control and feel. The design makes it a solid pick for learning car setup and driving technique.

Build Notes and Custom Setup

Builders can personalize the Tamiya 58533 by adjusting toe at the front, ride height, gear ratio and wheelbase to match driving preference. Camber is fixed on this kit, but the clear polycarbonate body gives plenty of scope for paint and decal work to recreate period liveries or your own scheme.

Whether you are new to kit building or an experienced driver after a dependable on-road project, the Tamiya 58533 Volkswagen Golf24 offers a rewarding build and a platform that responds well to modest tuning.
