Iconic Touring Replica: Tamiya 58318 on the TT-01 Chassis

The Tamiya 58318 recreates the Team Vodafone AMG-Mercedes and mounts it on the TT-01 tub chassis. Hobbyists appreciate the TT-01 for clean assembly steps and the scope to add hop-up parts over time.

Short History of the Race Car

The Team Vodafone AMG-Mercedes recorded championship wins in 2000 and 2001 and made a strong comeback in 2003. This model mirrors that competition heritage for scale racing fans.

Accessible Layout with Reliable Drive

The TT-01 uses a four-wheel shaft drive paired with a 540 motor for dependable performance. Its simple layout makes maintenance and part swaps straightforward for tuning sessions.

Plenty of Upgrade Paths

From suspension bits to motor and gearing changes, the TT-01 accepts a broad range of optional parts. That makes this kit ideal for people who like to refine handling and pace.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Chassis: TT-01 plastic tub design
  • Drive: 4WD shaft drive
  • Motor: 540 motor with pre-attached leads
  • Differentials: Planetary gear
  • Suspension: Fixed non-adjustable
  • Speed Control: Mechanical

The Tamiya 58318 Mercedes-Benz on the TT-01 is a dependable kit for tuners and collectors who want a buildable touring car with scope for upgrades.

A basic 2-channel radio, a quality servo for steering and an ESC matched to the motor are recommended to get reliable control and performance.
The stock TT-01 uses fixed suspension, so fitting oil shocks requires compatible hop-up suspension parts or a conversion kit designed for the chassis.
The polycarbonate shell trims and masks like other touring bodies; use proper paint for lexan and allow time for decals and finishing for best results.
The planetary gear diffs and shaft drive are sturdy for everyday use, but heavy competition or high-power upgrades may call for reinforced parts.
