[Product introduction]
TAMIYA Racer Mini 4WD Cross Spear 01 (VZ chassis).
[Running with a low center of gravity with a unique body]
This is a plastic model assembly kit of a high-performance racer that uses shaft drive four-wheel drive. Cross Spear 01 was designed by Kayuki Yamazaki, a hyper designer known for the ``DCR'' series and ``Dual Ridge Jr.''. This machine, which inherits the name of Mini 4WD ``Wraith Spear'', is attracting attention for its unique shape where the left and right side panels of the vehicle body are separated from the center part and supported by a truss structure, and the sharp form like a spear. The light gray body is inspired by a stealth fighter jet, and we are particular about its light and low form, pursuing a sense of stability that only a low center of gravity can provide. The removable canopy is prepared as a separate clear part. The chassis uses a lightweight and compact VZ, the main body is German gray, and A parts such as rollers and gear covers are coordinated with white. Fluorescent green spiral wheels are fitted with black super hard small-diameter low-height tires. The lightweight body suitable for actual combat and the VZ chassis are a perfect match. This is one of the most popular cars that is sure to be useful in races.
[VZ Chassis pursuing strength and expandability]
　 The VZ Chassis is a further refinement of the performance of the compact, lightweight, short wheelbase VS Chassis, which is popular in races. 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 increased. The key point is the appropriate amount of flex to absorb shock. In addition to the rear roller stay, the front bumper can also be separated. The degree of freedom in setting has also been 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 both made of ABS resin. The gear ratio was set to 3.5:1.
