About the Shooting Proud Star

The Tamiya 18641 Shooting Proud Star is a striking Mini 4WD model inspired by the Dash-3 Emperor. Its elongated canopy and detailed tail section give it a purposeful racing look on any circuit.

Visual Design and Finish

Produced in durable ABS, the body delivers a low-slung, broad footprint for maximum stability. The sticker pack allows hobbyists to customise their car for events or display.

MA Chassis and Handling

The MA chassis provides a midship motor layout that helps balance the car and smooth out handling characteristics. This setup lends itself to predictable cornering at speed.

Modifications and Racing Prep

Builders can pursue motor upgrades, tyre swaps, and gear tuning to improve lap times. The 4:1 gear ratio serves as a steady baseline while the double shaft motor design ensures reliable drive engagement.

Matching Setup to Track Conditions

Fine-tune tyre compound and gear selection to suit different surfaces and layouts. The Shooting Proud Star is versatile enough for club meets and local competitive events.

Great products and customer service.
Yes, the kit is accessible to novices who follow the instructions. Some patience is useful when working with small parts and decals.
Regularly clean gears, check wheel bearings for wear, and inspect the body mounts. Replace worn tyres to keep lap times consistent.
Narrower tyres can aid quick direction changes on tight tracks, but test different widths to find the right balance of grip and steering response.
Adding quality bearings can reduce rolling resistance and marginally improve speed, especially on longer straights when combined with fine-tuned gearing.
