Rally Heritage Packed into a 1/10 Model

The Mitsubishi Lancer has a storied rally past, and the Tamiya 58421 RC Mitsubishi Racing Lancer DF-01 Kit condenses that character into a ready-to-build scale car. It is aimed at hobbyists who want a genuine rally look with hands-on tuning potential.

DF-01 Chassis Strengths

The DF-01 platform is noted for its reliable shaft-driven 4WD system and even weight distribution. That setup helps the car stay composed when cornering and improves traction on varying surfaces.

Fine Tuning the Suspension

Adjustability is a strong point with generous suspension travel and CVA Damper Super Mini shocks at both ends. The kit also offers two rear arm options so you can set the wheelbase between 251mm and 257mm to match different bodies and handling preferences.

Choosing Gears for Performance

The included 78T and 75T spur gears plus 29T and 32T pinions allow four gear ratios, giving flexibility to dial in either stronger acceleration or higher top speed depending on your motor and track.
