Quick look at the Raikiri Pink Special

The Tamiya 95486 Raikiri Pink Special combines a lightweight shell with a flexible MS chassis to give a precise, nimble Mini 4WD experience. It trades a showy finish for straightforward performance on standard circuits.

Shell construction and finish

Built from 0.4mm polycarbonate, the body keeps overall mass low while offering good impact resistance. Metallic-style decals in pink help the car stand out under track lights and keep a modern visual profile.

Performance from the MS chassis

The MS chassis uses a double-shaft motor arrangement and places batteries near the center for even weight distribution. This layout aids stability at speed and makes balance adjustments easier for fine tuning.

Options for upgrades and tuning

Owners can swap motors, experiment with gear ratios, and change tyre compounds to match track conditions. The supplied hard grey low-profile tyres on black Y-spoke wheels are durable; softer tyres can be fitted for greater traction where required.

Assembly and workshop hints

The kit is supplied as a snap-fit assembly, aimed at hobbyists who enjoy hands-on construction and step-by-step tuning. It is suitable for those building their first race-ready Mini 4WD or upgrading an existing fleet.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: MS
  • Motor Compatibility: Double Shaft
  • Body Material: Polycarbonate
  • Gear Ratio: 3.5:1
  • Wheel Type: Low-Profile

With its light body and adaptable MS chassis, the Tamiya 95486 Raikiri Pink Special is a practical choice for tuners who want a balance of looks and on-track potential.

This is my 3rd and largest order from RC Jaz so far and I have to say I've been very impressed with this store. Everything arrived in perfect shape and order, very well packaged and delivered quickly bearing in mind this had to come from the other sid
Match tyre compound to the surface. Harder tyres suit smooth, high-speed circuits, while softer compounds help on bumpier or low-grip tracks to increase traction.
Yes, the Raikiri Pink Special is suitable for club-level events. Its MS chassis and upgrade path let you adapt the car to local race rules and track layouts.
Try a lower gear ratio, a higher torque motor, and lighter body mounting hardware to reduce rolling resistance and improve launch from the line.
No, the kit requires two AA batteries which are not included. Using fresh, high-drain alkaline or rechargeable NiMH cells will give the best results.
