    Bought a kit about 5 years ago out of curiosity. Assembled it and since I didn't know anything about the hobby, it just sat on my cabinet for a very long time. Fast forward to recently, I just stumbled upon a hobby shop at the mall with race tracks. Now I have 5 fully tune-up cars and I'm hooked! 😂

    oh miss.. what a video, the years 1995/96 were running when for the first time I put a mini 4WD on the ground under the parking lot of a shopping center, starting to chase it with a stick ... from then on it was a beautiful genuine and fun love, at various times I put it aside, then always resumed with the same passion of the first day, many friends, many meetings with people of all ages, beautiful, still today after the umpteenth break, the I found it again and I'm going to spend a few hours on the weekend watching them run, passing those moments yes, in stress to fix the car, but aware of how much I like it and it satisfies me. beautiful video and keep it up lady...,👍

    I got into mini 4wd because my nephew has 2 of them around the year 2000 or 2001,i brought the hop up parts for my nephew, its pretty expensive for a kid back then that's why i brought the parts for him, and eventually i also got hooked 😁

    Started the hobby in the Philippines in 1999,$2 Chinese brand with an OP motor...back then it was just all fun...no brand.just pure 90s fun...my lunch money is only $1 and I save half of it so I can buy another box on weekend as a collection...that's how we play as a 90s poor kids...we value cheap...until now I never bought a tamiya...but maybe before Christmas...il buy one,only for display because I cant afford it

    Got into this during Covid and me and the kids love it now. It soothes my urge to build, modify and troubleshoot. Can you do an explainer on rollers and how to build them.

    • @claredin

      That's awesome! Yes, I will have a roller video someday. :)

    You can still use big wheels for open classes just needs to trim the rubbers, here in Philippines it is now allowed in bmax category to trim tires.

    • @claredin

      Hmmm, that's very interesting because the whole idea of BMAX was to force racers to use unshaved, unmodified parts. I personally feel that using shaved tires automatically places a car in open class.

    I might be tempted to get into Mini 4WD racing, but there doesn't seem to be any places near me to race them. I do enjoy vicariously experiencing the races and the work you put in to race your cars! Very entertaining! 🙂🙃🙂🙃
