Group Build Nights
Enjoy building and tuning alongside others.
We will have available the necessary tools for basic building and are willing to help you get your first kit ready for the track.
If you have a kit already assembled but want some tips on how to tune your machine, come join us to learn from others or just hang out while work.
Those without kits but interested in learning more about mini4WD are encouraged to participate as well. Come learn what it takes to get a machine ready for the track!
Currently, Builds Night are held the 3rd Thursday of every month. Check the full schedule for location and details.
Classes and Bootcamps
Want to learn more about a specific topic?
While we believe that experience is the best teacher and the process of trial and error is integral to Mini4WD, there is, admittedly, a ton to learn. From time to time we will host classes to go deep on specific topics of interest, such as advanced tools and techniques, unique setting assemblies, customization and finishing, and maybe even a tiny bit of physics. Come expand your Mini4WD knowledge and add some tools to your kit along the way.
We also occasionally offer Begginer Bootcamps to help new racers conquer their first machine build and class specific Bootcamps to help racers build their first machine of a particular class and put them on path to competition.
Coffee & Cars
The ultimate way to start your day.
From time to time we meet up in the morning to hang out and talk Mini4WD. Come grab a cup of coffee or a bite to eat and see what is happening in the club and get to know your fellow racers.
Exhibitions and Invitationals
Special access to special races.
The world of Mini4WD is bigger than the three most common competitive classes. Races that focus on specific kits, chassis types, or unique competition rules let racers challenge themselves in new and fun ways outside normal competition. These events will tend to be smaller one-offs and can be sponsored by any interested party with a cool idea and a willingness to make it happen. Want to try out Street Mini? Love a specific kit? These events are for you.
If you have a cool idea for an exhibition or want to sponsor an invitational event, feel free to contact us and we can explore the possibility.
