The Tamiya Dark Impact (58370) is a 1/10 4WD off-road buggy purpose-built for serious performance driving on the proven DF-03 chassis. Mid-rear motor placement, longitudinal layout, and a balanced shaft-drive 4WD setup combine to give this buggy genuine competition credentials at a sensible price point.

The DF-03 is one of Tamiya's most respected mid-range competition platforms — strong parts support, a deep tuning catalogue, and proven reliability in club racing across the world. The Dark Impact pairs that chassis with aggressive bodywork that suggests exactly what it's designed to do.
