Description So it seems that the Mini 4wd Craze has gotten to me and I may have some new competitors for Cuteness Racers Go Full Speed in the form of my Sun Heroes. Yes, The Sun Heroes have now decided that with Gunpla about to end in their world it was best they find something else to base their brand on and thankfully they found their answer in these Mini Racing Cars and since Fuse already has his own Mini 4wd in the form of Flame Kaiser I think it was time to give Kai his very own exclusive Mini 4wd racer. This however was not what I expected and sure there are many other Mini 4wd cars that are better than this I think this roadster of a car is perfect for two reasons; Its not a standard mini 4wd and it was designed specifically to go fast

LOOKS:

The Victory Dragon is a speedy roadster looking car that is NOT a Mini 4wd rather it is based on a Geki Drive racer called Dragon Twister. It Originally came in this White and Blue Colour Scheme but that has been changed to a all Blue paint job with some light blue added to some parts. Now you may be wondering where the rollers are on this car? Well, Geki Drive does not need those. In fact, Due to the fact that it does not need rollers, This Vehicle can only drive up 90 degree Banked curves however Kai managed to find a fix around that problem (I'll get to that in a minute). Another thing that Victory Dragon has over a standard Geki Drive car is that the Boosters on the sides actually work and can propell this beast to immense speeds. Overall I think I may have created a car for my Veemon that will totally leave the competition in the dust and that's car number 2 of 7

PARTS:

BODY - The Body of Victory Dragon is different than a Mini 4wd car like say Flame Kaiser. This sleek design allows the vehicle to go fast thanks to aerodynamics and to also not look ridiculous. Also the size of this car is a bit smaller than the average mini 4wd but the components needed to run it are still present minus the rollers. Attached to the underside of Victory Dragon is a Micro ECU used by techy pro racers to control the drift and boost functions of the car (Yes I did say Drift function)

CHASSIS - Unlike a Mini 4wd the Geki Drive Chassis is unique only to this class of cars. The chassis itself is mainly just a straight row of plastic that can come in any colour you want (In Kai's case, Its Black). Attached to that chassis is a red Battery Housing that hold two AA Batteries which are top secret. The rest of the chassis is seperated into two components. The front which houses the Front bumper, Drive shaft and the first set of wheels and tires and the Rear which houses the Motor, Gear, stabilizer and second pair of Wheels and tires. All of these components attach to the chassis directly via the LINK SYSTEM which is essentially a system unique to Geki Drive that allows the racer to change parts on the go without having to take any other parts off. Its strange and very interesting at the same time but that is nothing compared to the mod made to the Front axle and this is an actual part so no 3d printer required. Kai swapped the regular front axle with a steering set front axle, Painted it black and mod it just a bit so that the car can turn further in order to pull off those sweet and sick drifts

MOTOR - Unfortunately for Kai, Those 5th gen Motors are not compatible with Geki Drive cars. However it does not need some fancy 5th gen motor cause the motor included with this Car is fast enough. It only needed a couple of tweaks from Volt to get it to where Kai wants it. That combined with its high speed gear and aero and you have a pretty fast and nimble racer that can take down even 5th gen machines

GEAR - Unlike a regular mini 4wd this car only uses one gear attached to the Motor. Kai's choice is of course a high speed gear to match the High Speed Motor. It is also attached to its own housing at the Rear

WHEELS AND TIRES - Now the Wheels and Tires are nothing new to mini 4wd cause they are what keep the cars rolling depending on which car you have. In Kai's Case, These were standard black tires with some fancy street style wheels painted in Blue, Red and black with little Yellow V on all four wheels 

FRONT BUMPER - The advantage for the Victory Dragon is that it does not need Stays or rollers to handle corners as that is being taken off by the steering set front axle however, There is one part that can make or break Victory Dragon's chances of victory and that will be the Front Bumper. This single piece of red plastic is responsible for Overtaking and pushing other cars into a corner (If you want to be a bit naughty)

DRAGON BOOSTER - Last but not the least I need to talk about the Boosters on the sides of the car. Sure they look fake on an actual Geki Drive Machine but not this one. Victory Dragon's Dragon Boosters have a unique gimmick that only occurs when its drifting. The more it drifts, The more boost it will gain and once it has enough of it the boosters transfer themselves onto the back of the car through little grooves that also help with the acceleration BTW and unleashes Max Dragon Boost that propels the car up to 155 Mph. Now that is insanely fast

There are other optional Parts that Kai could put into his Victory Dragon to maximize the performance of the car. These include:

SIDE ARMOUR

DRIVE SHAFT

REAR BUMPER

And that's all the parts I could find. There aren't a lot of parts that I discovered online but I know there had to be more. Anyways, Hope you like it. More Cars coming soon
