STORY:
The show features miniture battery powered 4WD
cars that have more than 100 different parts that the owner can add on to make the car go
faster. These cars have attracted a lot of attention over the last couple of years
and have been a big hit in Japan. As a matter of fact, 1998 is the Japan's 4WD
Championship's 11th year. The story is about children who are mesmerized by this
toy. The Seiba brothers (Letsu and Go), Ryo, Toukichi, Jiromaru, J, Kurosawa,
Makoto, and Ikuto play with their own little machines and strive to make them go faster.
They educate and mature themselves while struggling with their machines.
Their rivals, Kai, Gen and Rei push their way into the fun races and continue to
complicate their lives.
