Mad Bull quick look for dirt running

The Tamiya 58205 Mad Bull remains a go-to 1/10 scale buggy for pilots who want a rugged, no-nonsense machine. Its bold tyre profile and simple 2WD chassis make it easy to maintain and enjoyable to drive across a variety of outdoor surfaces. The model combines a fun aesthetic with practical engineering choices.

Shock-Absorbing Layout

The Mad Bull emphasises a forgiving ride through long-travel coil shocks matched to the 115mm diameter tyres. This arrangement helps smooth out bumps and keeps the buggy planted when cornering on rough ground. The ABS monocoque frame contributes to overall toughness and straightforward servicing.

Balanced Power Setup

Fitted with a 540 Type motor, the Mad Bull provides consistent output suitable for recreational speed and control. The 9.33:1 gear ratio gives a useful mix of torque and top speed, and the simple 2WD drivetrain keeps the system easy to work on for routine adjustments.

Made for Modifications

Owners can personalise handling and performance with suspension changes, different tyres or motor swaps. The kit requires a separately purchased radio control unit so you can match the transmitter to your preferred setup.
