Overview of the Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II

The Tamiya 95689 Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II Asia Challenge 2025 arrives as a Mini 4WD kit aimed at racers who want a compact off-road look with track performance. Its design balances visual appeal with setup flexibility for different circuits.

Body styling and rally inspiration

The bodyshell is molded in light smoke plastic and carries clear Asia Challenge stickers that echo modern rally liveries. The profile and vents give it a high performance rally buggy feel while keeping weight tuned for Mini 4WD racing.

MS Chassis design details

Built on the MS chassis, this model benefits from a modular layout and compatibility with double-shaft motors. The chassis supports stable handling and straightforward component swaps for racers tuning top speed or acceleration.

Tuning and upgrade options

Racers can fit higher torque motors, precision gear sets, and swap tire compounds to suit track conditions. The kit ships with a 3.5:1 gear ratio which gives a practical compromise between launch and top speed on typical Mini 4WD tracks.

Build and setup tips

The kit is supplied as a snap-fit assembly for an engaging build session. Parts are arranged for easy maintenance, so routine checks and gearing changes can be done quickly between runs.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: MS
  • Motor Compatibility: Double Shaft
  • Body Style: Off-Road Buggy
  • Wheel Type: Super Hard Low-Profile
  • Gear Ratio: 3.5:1

The Tamiya 95689 Jr Thunder Shot Mk.II pairs an MS chassis platform with a distinctive buggy body, giving hobbyists scope to tune performance while keeping a competitive track presence.

The MS chassis accepts double-shaft motors. You can choose high-torque or high-speed double-shaft units depending on whether you want quicker acceleration or higher top speed.
Super hard low-profile wheels are standard, but experimenting with softer compounds can improve grip on technical sections while harder compounds reduce rolling resistance on smooth straights.
Assembly uses snap-fit parts and clear instructions, making it accessible to newcomers while still offering tuning steps for more experienced builders.
Start with a tuned motor and a precision gear set, then test different tyre compounds and small weight adjustments to find the best balance for your track.
