Summary of the red aluminium rail guard for Mini 4WD

The Tamiya Mini 4WD Aluminum Rail Guard in red, model M4WD-49/RE, gives targeted reinforcement to areas prone to knocks and wear. It is suited to hobbyists who want robust protection without compromising lap times.

Compatibility and installation

Designed to sit neatly with a variety of Mini 4WD chassis, the guard keeps mass down so handling remains predictable. It is compatible with MS, MA and AR chassis series, though minor fitting tweaks can be needed for some cars.

Race day advantages

Fitting this aluminium guard reduces the chance of chassis damage from contact during races and helps maintain tune between runs, improving reliability across multiple heats. The red finish also helps with quick visual checks in the pits.

Older MS, MA and AR chassis are often compatible but check hole spacing; slight modification may be necessary on vintage frames.
No formal break in is required, but verify screw torque and alignment with a few light test runs before racing full pace.
Aluminium resists deformation better than plastic; replacement is rare unless the part sustains heavy or repeated hits.
