Ferrari Modena bodywork mounted to the TL01 chassis

The Tamiya 58289 - 1/10 Ferrari Modena TL01 Chassis Kit recreates the Ferrari 360 Modena Challenge look while using the TL01 chassis known for its balanced performance. The model is aimed at enthusiasts who want a scale-accurate body combined with a chassis that responds predictably to setup changes.

Key features of the TL01 drive and suspension

The TL01 employs a lightweight monocoque frame alongside a shaft-driven 4WD drivetrain that supplies stable traction on sealed surfaces. The independent double wishbone suspension assists with even weight transfer and the enclosed gearbox arrangement protects bevel-type differentials for reliable power flow under load.

Practical tips for setup and driving

The kit is configured for a Type 540 motor, providing a good balance of torque and top speed for general club use. Small adjustments to friction dampers, tyre compound selection and ride height will noticeably refine handling. The polycarbonate body keeps the model light and contributes to cleaner airflow at speed.

The Tamiya 58289 Ferrari Modena TL01 Chassis Kit is well suited to collectors and club drivers seeking a detailed replica with a chassis that is easy to maintain and tune for consistent track performance.

The kit includes a mechanical speed controller rather than an electronic ESC, so most users fit a modern electronic speed controller for smoother throttle control.
After runs, check gearbox oil, clean bearings and inspect tyres and driveshafts for wear; regular checks prevent premature failure and keep handling consistent.
While the TL01 is more of an entry to intermediate platform, with careful tuning and upgrades it can be competitive in club-level on-road classes.
