About the Tamiya 42285 TRF419 Chassis

The Tamiya 42285 TRF419 Chassis Kit reflects engineering aimed at high level touring car racing. Influenced by developments around the IFMAR 1/10 Electric Touring Car World Championship in Florida, it delivers targeted improvements for competitive driving.

Refined Structural Changes

Important components on the TRF419 have been reworked, including the chassis layout, bulkhead, motor mount, damper assemblies and gear differential. These refinements help provide steadier handling, improved traction and more accurate steering response.

Control-Focused Enhancements

The kit is tuned to balance pace with predictable control. Changes to motor mounting and bulkhead design assist weight distribution, while revised dampers smooth suspension movement for consistent cornering behaviour.

Designed for Setup and Development

The TRF419 is ideal for drivers who enjoy refining setups. Its modular nature makes testing different settings straightforward, letting drivers chase small performance gains through careful adjustments.

The Tamiya 42285 TRF419 Chassis Kit suits competitors and serious hobbyists who prioritise predictable handling and a chassis that responds well to setup changes.

Is the TRF419 legal for standard national touring classes?

The TRF419 is a standard 1/10 touring chassis that fits into most national touring classes, but always check local class rules for allowed modifications and electronics limits.

How does the gearbox setup affect handling?

Gear ratio and differential setup influence acceleration and corner exit; tuning diff preload and gear ratios helps you match behaviour to slower technical tracks or faster circuits.

Can the TRF419 handle damp or mixed conditions?

With appropriate tyre choice and softer damper setups, the TRF419 can be adapted for lower grip conditions; expect to reduce camber and soften roll for better contact.

What skill level benefits most from this chassis?

Intermediate to advanced drivers will get the most from the TRF419, as its strengths show when thoughtful setup and fine-tuning are applied.
