The Tamiya Dash-1 Emperor Premium combines the classic 1988 Mini 4WD silhouette with the flexible Super-II chassis. It is aimed at hobbyists who enjoy authentic styling plus the ability to tweak performance for race conditions.
The white ABS body echoes classic rally machines and comes with a sticker pack to let builders create custom liveries that stand out on the track.
Built from black ABS, the Super-II chassis offers a robust foundation and broad compatibility with upgrade parts. Blue ABS A-parts and an easy-lock gear cover make assembly tidier and help maintain drivetrain alignment under load.
Featuring a 4.2:1 gear ratio and large slick tyres, this kit is set up for speed and predictable handling. Owners can fit various Grade-Up Parts including higher performance Type 130 motors, alternate tyre compounds and ballast options to dial in lap times.
The kit includes a Type 130 motor; two AA batteries are required but not included. Assembly uses snap-fit components for a straightforward build experience while still offering upgrade and tuning pathways for experienced racers. The car is suited to standard Mini 4WD circuits.
With its period looks and a tuneable Super-II base, the Tamiya Dash-1 Emperor Premium is a dependable choice for collectors and racers who want to personalise a classic Mini 4WD.
