Tamiya #18640 Mini 4WD Raikiri
The name “Raikiri” comes from a mythical sword which was said to be able to cut through lightning, and this machine promises to provide speedy performance which lives up to the name. Like its Mini 4WD PRO predecessor Astralster (Item 18634), the body is the concept of Japanese designer Kota Nezu. The MA Chassis which is the platform underneath is a one-piece unit with advanced aerodynamics and air intakes to cool the inner workings of the machine. The MA (Midship AERO) Chassis has its motor in the center, and features a design which focuses upon achieving outstanding aerodynamic performance. It has six individual low-friction rollers, a rear skid bar and other speedy features developed thanks to years of design experience. The single-piece monocoque frame also guarantees that assembling and keeping the car well-maintained is a task that can be performed by beginners and veteran racers alike.
