TB Evolution III: a tuneable 1/10 touring platform

The Tamiya 58299 TB Evolution III caters to drivers looking for a responsive, build-your-own touring car. Continuing the TB series legacy and tracing back to the TGX nitro roots from 1994, this kit emphasises chassis balance and adjustability for track use.

Strategic component placement for steadier drive

Careful placement of motor and batteries helps control steering behaviour under load. With the motor on the right and batteries on the left, weight distribution becomes more predictable, aiding stability during rapid direction changes.

Refined carbon chassis and adaptable suspension parts

The narrower double-deck carbon chassis sharpens steering input while the updated centre drive shaft and aluminium spur adaptor reduce unwanted vibrations. Suspension geometry from the 414MII and adjustable blocks let you tune roll centre, anti-squat and anti-dive to suit different circuits.

Reduced mass for crisper handling

Re-engineered diff outdrives and bulkheads save roughly 40g, contributing to quicker response and improved agility through corners. The lighter assembly enhances acceleration and steering feel.

The Tamiya 58299 TB Evolution III is a strong choice for builders who want a nimble touring chassis with room for setup experimentation. Its lighter components and refined drivetrain make it well suited to circuit driving and club events.

The balanced layout and agile chassis make it adaptable to both tight technical tracks and faster flowing circuits once you fine tune suspension and gearing.
Tamiya parts support is strong, with replacement items and hop-ups available for the TB series to help you maintain or upgrade the car over time.
Experiment with diff oil viscosity and one-way settings to tune traction and turn-in response. Lighter oil usually frees rotation, while thicker oil increases stability on corner exits.
Yes, the TB Evolution III provides a solid base for mod-class builds when paired with appropriate motor, ESC and tuning parts, making it viable for competitive classes.
