Overview of the Tamiya 18637 JR Festa Jaune

The Tamiya 18637 JR Festa Jaune brings bold colour and race-focused lines to the Mini 4WD stable, aimed at racers who value both looks and lap time. Its sculpted bodywork and compact footprint make it eye catching on the grid while staying practical for tuning.

Body Styling Inspired by Supercars

The Festa Jaune features a low, wide silhouette that echoes modern supercars. Prominent front intakes and a pared-down cockpit emphasise aerodynamics, and the rear wing adds visual flair plus improved stability at speed. The name Jaune highlights the model's standout yellow finish.

MA Chassis Layout and Benefits

Underneath the shell the MA chassis provides an aerodynamic platform with an integrated motor layout. This chassis accepts a double shaft motor for balanced output and consistent handling. Molded in sturdy grey ABS, it offers a durable base for racing use.

Upgrade Paths and Wheel Setup

The kit ships with dark silver wheels and black 26mm low-profile tyres, a setup tuned for grip on smoother tracks. The stock 3.5:1 gear ratio is a reliable starting point, and racers can swap gears or motors to fine tune acceleration and top speed depending on the circuit.

Track Suitability and Assembly

Well suited to official Mini 4WD tracks and home layouts, the Festa Jaune adapts to a variety of track formats. Assembly uses snap-fit parts and requires minimal tools, making it accessible for hobbyists new to the sport while still offering room for advanced setup work.

The Tamiya 18637 JR Festa Jaune is a strong choice for racers wanting a visually striking Mini 4WD that responds well to tuning and setup changes.
