Tamiya 94899 JR Slash Reaper Red Special - Compact racer with a bold red finish

The Tamiya 94899 JR Slash Reaper Red Special is a compact 1/32 Mini 4WD that balances display appeal with practical track features. Mounted on the MS chassis, the striking red ABS shell and aggressive lines suit both shelf display and circuit use.

Chassis construction and body profile

The MS chassis is made from reinforced ABS to withstand the usual impacts of club racing while allowing modular adjustments. It supports a double-shaft motor and the Slash Reaper body adds aerodynamic intent alongside its dramatic styling.

Handling kit and running gear

This model ships with carbon-reinforced 4-spoke wheels and large diameter hard slick tyres to help with stability and traction on common track surfaces. Black 16mm rollers are fitted to assist cornering, and the supplied sticker sheet gives scope for visual customisation.

Modifications and gearing balance

A broad range of Grade-Up Parts are available separately so you can tune handling or reduce friction where needed. The 4:1 gear ratio delivers a useful compromise between acceleration and top speed for most race layouts.

  • Scale: 1/32
  • Material: Red ABS, Black ABS
  • Motor: Double-shaft
  • Gear Ratio: 4:1
  • Wheels: Carbon-reinforced 4-spoke
  • Tyres: Large diameter hard slick
Check all screws and mounts are secure, fit fresh AA batteries, and run a few test laps to settle tyres and confirm roller alignment before racing.
Regularly clean tyres and rollers, inspect for plastic stress or cracks, and replace worn bearings to maintain consistent lap times.
Start with rollers and low-friction bearings to improve cornering, then explore reinforced stays or lighter wheel options to refine balance.
The red ABS body looks attractive out of the box, though many collectors add detailing, panel lining or decals to achieve a more finished display model.
