Tamiya 18624 Hotshot Jr. (MS Chassis)
Tamiya’s first R/C 4WD racing buggy “Hotshot” now lines up in the Mini 4WD PRO Series as the “Hotshot Jr.” The dynamic form, front/rear dampers, large rear wing and minimum body cowling are all realistically reproduced on the modern MS Chassis, as well as pin spike tires on 4-spoke wheels which raise the mood of the buggy. The centrally located double shaft motor effectively transmits power to all four wheels for optimum performance and the “One-Touch” three piece chassis requires no glue and is a breeze to assemble. In addition, there is a large variety of Grade-Up Parts to choose from to customize your machine. This machine is definitely one for all Hotshot fans.
Description
In 1986, the first Hot Shot Junior of the Racer 4WD Series was released. The Hotshot was Tamiyas first “Racing Buggy,” and was extremely popular, leading to its redesign into a Mini 4WD car that could fit the palm of your hand. At that time, that design was greatly supported by elementary school children. This led to the Mini 4WD evolving from just being 4WD models to machines for use in a new type of racing hobby.
