Buster-Sonic Premium - classic design tuned for racing

The Tamiya 19445 Buster-Sonic Premium pairs the familiar Mini 4WD look from "Let's & Go!!" with the aerodynamic AR chassis platform. It is aimed at modellers and racers who value authentic styling alongside practical upgrade options.

Shaped for low drag and stability

The white ABS body is sculpted to manage airflow and improve straight-line stability. Metallic stickers refresh the original livery and help the car stay visually striking whether racing or displayed on a shelf.

AR chassis for efficient performance

The AR chassis, moulded in metallic gray ABS with red A parts, is designed to encourage clean airflow and simple servicing. The layout helps maintain speed while allowing quick part swaps between runs.

Modification options for different tracks

The Buster-Sonic Premium supports a wide range of upgrades from motors to gearing and tyre choices to match track types. The supplied large-diameter yellow wheels and black tyres provide dependable traction, and the 4.2:1 gear ratio balances acceleration against top speed.

Specifications

  • Chassis Type: AR (Aero)
  • Body Material: White ABS Plastic
  • Wheel Type: Large-Diameter, 5-Spoke

With its blend of period-accurate styling and sensible tuning potential, the Buster-Sonic Premium is a versatile pick for hobbyists who want a faithful model that can be prepared for competitive racing.

Lowering the centre of gravity and selecting grippier tyres helps cornering. Small adjustments to toe and weight distribution can also make a noticeable difference.
Yes, the detailed body and decals make it a good display model. Keep decals and paint protected if you plan to race and display the same car to avoid wear.
Try different gear ratios and motor choices. A 4.2:1 ratio is a balanced starting point; adjust upwards for more top speed or downwards for quicker acceleration depending on the circuit.
Clean gears and bearings after dusty sessions, check screws for tightness, and replace worn tyres. Routine checks prevent small issues turning into performance losses.
