The Tamiya 58524 Stadium Thunder restores the distinctive 1996 styling on a tried-and-true platform shared with the Blitzer Beetle and Stadium Blitzer. This kit delivers a nostalgic build experience alongside durable construction that suits both display and running use.
At a 1/10 scale the Stadium Thunder caters to modellers who enjoy assembly and fine tuning. The printed polycarbonate body keeps the original livery, while the rear-wheel-drive setup and ABS bathtub chassis make for an easy to service, reliable running chassis.
The four-wheel double wishbone suspension featuring Tamiya C.V.A. shocks provides controlled wheel movement and comfort over bumps. The fully enclosed gearbox prevents contamination, and the gear differential helps maintain predictable power delivery. Front tyres have three ribs for steering feedback and the rear tyres use spikes combined with an X tread for acceleration grip.
The model is specified with a 540-J brushed motor, which keeps things simple and low maintenance. An ESC is not part of the kit, letting builders select a controller appropriate for their battery choice and desired throttle response.
The Tamiya 58524 Stadium Thunder suits hobbyists who appreciate a faithful classic build that remains practical for contemporary off-road running.
