any one here got bit by the bug again?
It seems that Tamiya is trying to revive the phenomenon. They introduced the new PRO series which features a chassis with the engine mounted in the middle and the batteries on either side for better weight distribution.
our village (san pedro laguna) used to have several race tracks running but most of them just closed recently. now i can't find any in our village.
demmet i want mini4wd back now.
anyone know racetracks in the region? anyone want to relive the mini4wd days? anyone want to donate their old parts to me? ;D

hmmm... with this new chassi design, i can't use some of my up-grade parts. (new motor, new contact terminal plates, new gearing sets. the transmission looks nice though. less stress for the motor for there is no more propeller shaft.
