Tamiya 17901 Raikiri Blue Dog Racer MA Chassis Mini 4WD Kit  [17901]

Raikiri with Dog Racer - Model Overview

The Tamiya 17901 Raikiri Mini 4WD blends striking looks with practical performance for club racers and collectors. The clear blue Raikiri shell teams with a quirky Dog Racer figure, and the kit includes a sticker sheet for personalised livery and race numbers.

Aerodynamic Coupe Styling

The Raikiri body borrows cues from fast sports cars to give a low, streamlined profile that looks sharp on the track. Molded in translucent blue plastic, the shell is ideal for painters and sticker customisers who want a distinctive finish.

MA Chassis Layout and Benefits

The MA Chassis places the motor centrally for balanced weight distribution and stable handling. Fitted with six low-friction rollers and a rear skid bar, this platform is tuned for predictable cornering across a range of Mini 4WD courses.

Tuning and Upgrade Routes

Out of the box the Raikiri is ready to run, but upgrades unlock better lap times. Swapping in higher torque motors, experimenting with tire compounds, and choosing gear ratios can all improve acceleration and corner speed on timed runs.

The Tamiya 17901 Raikiri combines showy styling with a capable MA chassis, making it a versatile choice for racers who want both display appeal and upgrade potential.
