Tamiya 18101 - Super Avante Jr. VZ Mini 4WD Kit - Compact Racer Kit  [18101]

Introducing the Tamiya Super Avante Jr. (VZ) for tight tracks

The Tamiya Super Avante Jr. captures the spirit of high speed with a slim silhouette designed by Kota Nezu. This Mini 4WD distills the look of the full-size R/C Super Avante into a smaller package, including compact front fenders that help reduce drag.

Sleek body and serviceable details

The body is molded in blue ABS resin and sits on a contrasting black VZ chassis. It features a removable canopy and a separate rear wing, plus a detachable front inboard suspension panel that makes routine adjustments and styling swaps easy.

VZ chassis built for lightness and strength

The VZ chassis emphasizes a compact, lightweight layout while adding reinforcements at the bumper and rear stay base for durability. Low-friction 620 plastic bearings are used to improve drivetrain efficiency, and the kit uses a 3.5:1 gear ratio to balance acceleration and top speed.

Tuning options for club and local racing

This model responds well to Grade-Up Parts upgrades. Common enhancements include higher-performance motors, alternative tire compounds, and gear changes to tune handling and speed for different track formats.

The Tamiya Super Avante Jr. (VZ) mixes aerodynamic styling with a durable, tuneable chassis, making it a solid pick for hobbyists who like to customise and race.
