**Tamiya Mini 4WD Roborace (MA)*
Roborace is an exciting new development in the world of motorsports, testing
the limits of autonomous driving in electrically powered vehicles. This Mini 4WD
racer kit replicates the exciting DevBot 2.0Â as seen from the creators of
Roborace. The DevBot 2.0Â racecar runs on the Nvidia DRIVE platform, which is
designed to aid the development process for cars in the Roborace series. The
hardware is managed centrally and is the same for each team, meaning that the
only differentiator is the AI driver software the teams develop for the
competition. Furthermore, it can be driven by a human or AI driver, meaning
engineers can explore the relationship between man and machine for assisted and
autonomous technologies.
This exciting and cutting-edge race car appears on the Mini 4WD PRO model
platform, which is based upon the aerodynamically efficient MA Chassis!

The MA (Midship AERO) Chassis has its motor in the center and features a design
that focuses on achieving outstanding aerodynamic performance. It has six
individual low-friction rollers, a rear skid bar and other speedy features
developed thanks to years of design experience. The single-piece monocoque frame
also guarantees that assembling and keeping the car well-maintained is a task
that can be performed by beginners and veteran racers alike. Here, the MA
chassis features a 3.5:1 gear ratio.
