Tamiya Mini 4WD cars were first released in 1982. Designed as a cement-free snap together kit, Tamiya Mini 4WD's are essentially "plastic model kits". Tamiya's latest line of Mini 4WD's is the Pro series, which is built on the MS chassis. This vehicle features a revolutionary double shaft motor for a dramatically lower center of gravity and optimum balance. This PRO series features a twin motor shaft that transmits power directly to both front and rear wheels, which removes the need for a propeller shaft and balancing the motor chassis layout. The MS chassis is designed with a 3-part detachable chassis that can be tuned-up with a wide range of separately available Hop Up parts.

All of the Mini 4WD kits have upgrade parts. For example, using optional ball bearing helps to minimize friction loss and utilize motor power more efficiently. By selecting the right Hop Up parts, you can enhance the performance of your car or the stability in curves during acceleration. Besides enhancing performance, you can customize your Mini 4WD to make it special and unique. Try cutting material out of your car to make it lighter or painting it with vivid colors.

Mini 4WD's are reasonably priced and can be considered a learning experience for many kids. They are easy-to-assemble and a great first time hobby for kids and adults. It is something a parent and child can do together. The true appeal of Mini 4WD's can be found in racing them. Many 4WD fans compete in events put on by local retailers. The excitement of Mini 4WD racing is not just making them go fast, but in analyzing and improving your car. This is what sets Mini 4WD racing apart from other activities for kids and has made it one of the fastest growing hobbies in the world.
