What the Tamiya 95308 Bigwig RS Offers

The Tamiya 95308 Bigwig RS brings Mini 4WD fans a compact buggy that nods to larger scale off-road machines. It uses the Super-II chassis to give tuners a solid, familiar platform for experimenting with gearing and weight distribution. The RS trim adds race-style cues while keeping the build approachable for hobbyists.

Shell Styling and Track Presence

The Royal Blue PS shell captures a classic buggy aesthetic while the updated metallic sticker set lifts the look for modern race pits. Matte-plated 6-spoke wheels and black slick tyres provide a neat balance between style and grip for flat track conditions.

Design Notes on the Super-II Chassis

Constructed from Black and Light Gun Metal ABS, the Super-II chassis is built to take common Mini 4WD upgrades. Its structural layout supports tuning choices like gear swaps and weight placement, and the 4.2:1 gear ratio is a versatile starting point for mixed-format racing.

Upgrade Paths and Modding Ideas

Modders often fit stronger motors, specialised tyre compounds and precision gears to tailor lap times. Fine-tuning with weights, low-friction parts and dampers can help reduce roll and improve line consistency on twisty layouts.

Build Notes for New Builders

The kit assembles with snap-fit panels and simple fasteners. Basic modelling tools will get you through construction, allowing more time to focus on setup and track testing.

Ordered quite a lot of stuff from these guys & the packaging & condition of the items delivered was excellent. The service is second to none & I will definitely buy from these again.
Yes, the Bigwig RS offers the performance baseline and upgrade potential suitable for club-level Mini 4WD events once tuned to track conditions.
Low profile tyres can be fitted to change handling characteristics. Try different compounds to find the best grip for your track surface.
Adjusting weight distribution, tyre choice and gear ratio can significantly improve cornering. Small ballast moves and stiffer tyres often help with sharper turns.
