If a shop decides to allow other capacities/brands for a local race, that is their prerogative. The only exception to this is the use of Fujitsu-branded alkalines, as they're a sponsor of the races in Japan. Racers are limited to Tamiya-branded alkalines or NiCD/NiMH rechargeables (1000mAh). Tamiya regulations are very specific as to what cells can be used in official tournaments. Created an account here to clarify a couple of the mistakes in the vid as I see them being discussed here in the comments. Hello, this is Arthur of the Force Labo crew/F-Lev team in the video.

If you guys like this pilot and like the series concept, we'd love to hear some ideas in the comments for additional racing circuit types to check out-please let us know! Promoted Comments It's great stuff for nostalgia, since the 90s cartoons were very much made like Bandai/Hasbro cartoons designed to sell toys. This would be a precursor to the Yakuza series Mini 4WD mini-game. The series also had several licensed games for multiple platforms in the 90s, with a couple remasters released for mobile. One aspect we didn't get into, is the 90s Anime BakusЕЌ KyЕЌdai Let's & Go!!which is bound to come up in the comments.В BakusЕЌ KyЕЌdai Let's & Go!!, was localized in the US as the SaturdayВ morning cartoon ' Let's & Go!!'.

Mini 4WD is an interesting internationalВ phenomenon. Video editor Aulistar Mark is a veritable fountain of 4WD Mini trivia, and he passed this tidbit to me in email as the edit was being locked: This video has also been my introduction to 4WD Mini-and it's a vast world with a long history, stretching back to the '90s. Mini 4WD has something for all levels of racer, from casual to crazy. It's also a hobby that grows with you, and at the extreme end-if your interest runs that deep-you might find yourself adding carbon fiber parts and tweaking rollers and brakes by the millimeter to eke out faster lap times. The big takeaway is that the sport is friendly to newcomers and easy to get into-you can spend $15 or so on the Tamiya Yaris shown in the video, which can be assembled and ready to race in about 45 minutes. Holt gives us a nice overview of Mini 4WD cars, the different race classes, and a bit of a primer on tuning and engineering. This ensures that all the Mini 4WDs on the track are all racing the same total distance (because otherwise the inner lanes would be shorter than the outer lanes). Though the track appears to have multiple lanes in parallel, it's actually a single lane that spirals around the circuit, connected by a jump-over.

They zip around the track, steered by the cars' built-in bumpers and rollers pushing against the track walls. The biggest factor that sets Mini 4WD apart from other RC cars is that Mini 4WD cars are hands-off during the race-once the green flag waves, the cars are on their own. Must go fasterДЇor this video, we spent time talking Mini 4WD with Randy Holt, owner of the HobbyTown store in Toms River, New Jersey. The Mini 4WD that wins does so by a mixture of careful planning, careful engineering, and a big heaping of pure luck. You take a 1:30-scale battery-powered car, spend days carefully and patiently tuning the crap out of it, and then you set it loose on a curving track as fast as its little wheels can make it go-up to 40 miles per hour (about 65km/h). RC racing in all its various forms has always been a maker-y kind of hobby, and Mini 4WD serves as an excellent genre example to start with.
