Tamiya #18096 1/32 Dual Ridge JR. Mini 4WD
This is a plastic model assembly kit for a high-performance racer that uses a shaft drive four-wheel drive. The Dual Ridge Jr. is a machine that reproduces the Dual buggy ” which was designed by hyper designer Kayuki Yamaaki in a mini 4WD under the supervision of the individual. It features a smooth futuristic body with a large cockpit and a sharp rear wing that cuts the air. In addition, the 8 vents on the top of the body are original designs only for Mini 4WD. Not only the custom mood up, but also the cooling effect of the motor can be expected. The chassis is lightweight and compact, and has a high degree of freedom in setting. The silver-plated five-spoke wheels are fitted with superhard small diameter low-height tires with a white logo printed on them to ensure high running performance. Metallic stickers are used to express the blue graphic that makes the silver body look even cooler and the machine name logo. [VZ which evolved VS chassis]
The VZ chassis is a refined version of the VS chassis with its small size, light weight, and short wheelbase, which is also popular in racing. While maintaining the excellent features of the VS chassis such as small turning performance and high maintainability, the strength of the bumper, rear stay base, propeller shaft bearing, etc. has been improved. The point is also a moderate “bend” that absorbs shock. In addition to the rear roller stay, the front bumper can also be split. The degree of freedom in setting is also greatly improved. The shaft bearing uses a 620 plastic bearing made of POM resin with low frictional resistance. A parts such as the chassis body and gear cover are made of ABS resin, and the gear ratio is set to 3.5: 1.
