Tamiya 58504 Audi R8 LMS - Weekend Racer and Display Model

Built to mirror the endurance racer that took class honours, this 1/10 Tamiya 58504 body offers the lines and aero of the Audi R8 LMS in compact form. Details such as the wing, mirrors and body vents are modelled for a convincing scale look, and the decal sheet lets you replicate a race-ready finish.

TT-01 Type-E Chassis Highlights

The TT-01 Type-E chassis gives an easy-to-work-on platform with shaft-driven full-time 4WD providing steady traction. The bathtub layout lowers the mass of the motor and battery, improving balance, and a reinforced nylon upper deck aids rigidity. Steering runs through a 3-piece tie rod arrangement and the car uses 4-wheel double wishbones and bevel differential gears to maintain composure through corners.

True-to-Scale Wheels, Tyres and Running Gear

Stock radial tyres mount to black dish wheels for a period-correct look and grip on smooth surfaces. The model measures 434mm long, 194mm wide and 122mm tall across a 257mm wheelbase. A Type 540 motor is included with the kit; an electronic speed controller must be fitted separately for operational use.

The Tamiya 58504 Audi R8 LMS is a versatile kit for model builders who want both display quality and a chassis that responds well to setup changes for club racing.

Yes, the TT-01 Type-E is stable and predictable on sealed surfaces, making it suitable for casual club events with modest power and stock tyres.
Owners often fit aluminium steering parts, stronger driveshafts, and upgraded dampers to improve longevity under frequent track use.
A compact NiMH or LiPo pack sized for the TT-01 battery tray will work; ensure your ESC and motor are compatible with the chosen pack voltage and connector type.
Light sanding of trim lines and a wash before paint help achieve smooth results; use recommended polycarbonate paints and mask carefully for crisp decal placement.
