Overview of the Tamiya Raikiri & Pig Racer kit

The Tamiya 17902 Raikiri & Pig Racer blends a whimsical pig motif with a clear pink racing body, offering a fun yet functional model for Mini 4WD fans. Its build caters to first time assemblers as well as modders seeking a solid baseline.

Bodywork and decals

The transparent pink coupe is sculpted for minimal drag while keeping visual flair. A decal set is included to add racing numbers and accents, making it easy to give the car a customised look.

Performance traits of the MA chassis

The MA (Midship AERO) chassis positions the motor centrally to give even weight distribution and predictable cornering. Included are six low friction rollers and a rear skid bar to help the car maintain speed through complex track features.

Practical tuning advice

Owners can experiment with stronger motors, alternative tyre choices and gear ratios to match track demands. The model accepts a wide range of compatible Tamiya components for stepwise performance improvements.

Yes, it is a sensible choice for club races after basic tuning. The MA chassis handles typical circuit obstacles well when set up correctly.
You can paint the inside of the clear body to protect the finish and preserve outer decals. Use compatible polycarbonate paints and avoid heavy coats that alter fitment.
After running, clean bearings and rollers, check for loose screws, and inspect tyres for wear. Regular checks keep lap times consistent and prevent failures.
