Overview of the Slash Reaper Mini 4WD

The Tamiya 95009 Slash Reaper Clear Red Special pairs a translucent red ABS body with the white AR chassis to deliver a clean, race-oriented Mini 4WD. The body art by Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi gives the model distinctive styling, while the platform is aimed at builders who enjoy setup and tuning.

Aerodynamics and practical performance

The AR chassis is shaped to improve airflow and reduce drag, contributing to stable high-speed behaviour and effective cornering. This kit includes a 130 motor and uses a 4.2:1 gear ratio for a practical compromise between acceleration and top speed.

Finished with matte metal-plated red wheels and hard silver tyres, the Slash Reaper offers both style and resilience for repeated track use. A fresh sticker sheet is supplied to customise the livery.

What are the benefits of the AR chassis for lap consistency?

The AR chassis helps maintain consistent lap times by lowering aerodynamic drag and stabilising the car at speed. That stability reduces time loss in chicanes and long straights.

Can I install a different motor for competition?

Yes, you can upgrade the motor, but be mindful of rules at competitive events and ensure the new motor matches the chassis and gear selection for reliable performance.

What basic maintenance keeps this model race-ready?

Regularly check gears, wheel bearings and tyre wear. Clean the chassis of dust and reapply light lubrication to moving parts to preserve speed and reduce wear.

Is the body ready for decals and paintwork?

The clear red ABS body accepts decals directly and can be masked for selective painting. Trim carefully and use a soft cloth to apply stickers for a neat finish.
