Torcruiser Tamiya 18609 1/32 Mini 4WD PRO

The Tamiya 18609 Torcruiser brings precise design to the Mini 4WD PRO category, offering a modular MS chassis that simplifies part swaps and setup changes. Its three-piece construction makes access easy for gearing and wheel adjustments, while the mid-mounted motor layout driven by a type 130 double shaft motor helps deliver even weight spread for consistent handling.

The body is a clear polycarbonate shell intended for custom finishes, and its light weight complements the small wheel arrangement and the high 3.5:1 gear ratio for competitive speed runs. Battery placement alongside the motor keeps mass low and central, helping the car stay planted through chicanes and fast bends.

  • Scale: 1/32
  • Material: Polycarbonate body
  • Motor: Type 130 double shaft
  • Chassis: MS Chassis
  • Gear Ratio: 3.5:1

Which tyres suit this setup best?

For a Torcruiser with small diameter wheels, low-profile rubber tyres with good traction help on both polished and taped track surfaces. Match tyre hardness to lane grip for best lap times.

Is the MS chassis easy to modify?

Yes, the MS chassis is designed for modular upgrades and parts swaps, so adding rollers, braces, or alternate gear sets is straightforward for experienced builders.

How should I position batteries for best balance?

Place batteries on either side of the motor as intended to keep the centre of gravity low and balanced; minor shifts fore or aft can be used to tune handling response.
