In order to ensure a fun, safe, and fair racing experience, the racer/race classes and regulations have been revised.
Please read this carefully!
"Mini 4WD races are not just about being the fastest, it’s also about using your head and having good set-up techniques. Not only do you challenge other racers, but you challenge yourself, too. By remembering the spirit of fair play, you can learn how to race honorably and with good manners." -Tamiya Japan
