Icon Reborn in Scale: Tamiya 58229 RC Toyota GT-One TS020

The Tamiya 58229 RC Toyota GT-One TS020 reproduces the striking silhouette of the original Le Mans prototype at 1/10 scale. The kit focuses on faithful exterior proportion and a chassis layout that invites setup refinement and spirited driving on smooth circuits.

Understanding the F103RS Layout

The F103RS chassis is respected for its no-nonsense design and predictable behaviour. The semi double deck FRP frame gives a measured stiffness, while front independent coil springs and a rear friction pad damper help deliver sharp steering response and stable corner exit.

Scale Form Meets Functional Power

The polycarbonate body captures the GT-One's aerodynamic intent, offering low drag and good high-speed manners. The fitted 540 Sports Tuned motor supplies usable acceleration and is compatible with typical 1/10 gearing for controlled track performance.

From Racing History to Model Shelf

The Toyota GT-One TS020 is an important piece of GT racing history, and this Tamiya kit preserves its character in a form that works both as a display model and a race platform. It appeals to those who enjoy painting, detailing, and tuning for on-road sessions.

The Tamiya 58229 RC Toyota GT-One TS020 is a fine choice for modellers and racers after an authentic replica that also performs reliably on well prepared on-road circuits.

A basic 2-channel transmitter, a compact receiver, an ESC matched to the 540 motor and a 7.2V or appropriate LiPo pack will get you running; choose components that fit the chassis layout.
Expect to fit electronics, tune wheel alignment and select tyres; basic setup yields good handling, while further refinement improves lap consistency.
Yes, spare decal sheets and recommended paint colours are sold separately so you can restore or customise the livery as needed.
With careful painting and finishing, the model makes an excellent display piece while remaining fully usable for controlled track runs.
