MINI 4WD
Mini 4WD racing has captivated hobbyists since its inception in 1982 by the Japanese manufacturer Tamiya. These 1/32 scale model racing cars, powered by an electric motor and two AA batteries, have become a beloved pastime for enthusiasts of all ages.
The races take place on three-lane tracks, meticulously designed and reconfigured at every event, bordered by guardrails where the models glide along. The first car that completes 3 laps is the winner!
What started as a niche hobby has grown into a global phenomenon, with Mini 4WD enthusiasts gathering at local and international events to showcase their customized creations and test their tuning prowess.
LABTIMER
Years of experience in the industry have led to the development of the most advanced telemetry system for dynamic modeling.
LABtimer is designed to enhance the racing experience from various perspectives. The Mini 4WD three-lane version can:
- Measure the race time of three cars simultaneously, drastically reducing race duration.
- Avoid evaluation errors such as false starts or incorrect finishing orders.
- Reduce the number of personnel involved in race telemetry.
- Simplify timekeeping during practice sessions (optional).
- Entertain the audience at major events by signaling the start of the race (optional).
LABtimer devices intended for Mini 4WD three-lane-track races are:
- Read unit for Mini 4WD 3 lane circuit
- Remote start button
- Remote semaphore for 3 lane circuit
