Retro racer renewed: Tamiya Thunder Shot 58706-60A

The revived Tamiya Thunder Shot 58706-60A brings back a favourite off-road silhouette with meaningful mechanical updates. It draws on the Thunder Shot heritage and delivers practical improvements for club and backyard running.

Stiffening and suspension updates

An aluminium motor mount increases chassis stiffness around the drivetrain, while CVA oil-filled shock absorbers smooth out rough impacts. The all-independent double wishbone layout maintains wheel control and consistent handling at speed.

Style, build and traction

Included is a pre-cut, pre-painted polycarbonate body featuring white and blue tones, a separate rear wing and a see-through canopy for scale accuracy. The ABS bathtub chassis is durable and the semi-pneumatic spike tyres offer good traction on softer surfaces.

The Tamiya 58706-60A is a solid choice for hobbyists after a buildable, period-style off-roader with improved components that make it more capable on rough ground.

Start with properly set CVA dampers and correct tyre choice for the surface. Upgrading to higher-quality shocks or fine-tuning spring rates will noticeably improve cornering and stability.
Yes. The ABS bathtub chassis is tough and resists common impacts, but routine inspections and maintenance of screws and suspension parts will keep it reliable.
The standard layout is for a 540-brushed motor. Converting to brushless may require modifications to the motor mount, gearing and ESC selection. Plan for cooling and drivetrain strength if you pursue a conversion.
Service the CVA units periodically by checking seals, refilling oil to the recommended level and replacing worn parts. Proper maintenance preserves damping performance and consistency.
Yes. Standard 1/10 off-road tyres and wheels are widely available and many options will fit the Thunder Shot layout for different track conditions.
