In competitive Mini 4WD running, trimming friction points helps lap times. The Tamiya 15533 Mini 4WD Skid-Tape is made to reduce sliding losses on the chassis underside and bumpers so you can preserve momentum without changing heavy components.
The skid-tape is PET based for a balance of toughness and low friction. Each sheet measures 80x120mm, giving larger coverage to protect areas that commonly rub the track. Fitting to bumpers and under-chassis areas helps cut friction during high speed sections.
Applied correctly, the skid-tape reduces energy loss from contact and helps stabilise the car after jumps, resulting in quicker recovery and less time spent regaining pace on the racing line.
Clean and dry the intended areas before applying to ensure strong adhesion. Trim around mounts and pillars to avoid interference and focus on the parts that take the most track contact.
