LOCKED IN: Participants brought their A game last TMAC 2026!
MANILA, Philippines — Nearly 200 racers from across Asia gathered together and competed in the three-day Tamiya Mini 4WD Asia Challenge (TMAC) 2026 regional championship, held at Ayala Malls Manila Bay last June 26 to 28.
But it’s not just about the race, TMAC 2026 also became the perfect place where unique racing experiences and camaraderie came together. Tamiya racers from different countries arrived with one shared goal: to proudly represent their countries and celebrate their passion alongside fellow competitors.
With representatives from China, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines–the competition put speed and precision to the test. Good thing they had a battery partner ready to power up the race!
Longer-lasting power
Tamiya racing isn’t just about how fast your car is. Consistency matters too, especially during practice runs and of course, the race itself. Good thing that behind every lap on the track, Panasonic Alkaline Batteries delivered the reliable, longer-lasting and Japan-quality power racers needed to keep going.

Panasonic Alkaline Batteries equipped the Tamiya cars with longer-lasting energy, helping them stay race-ready.
“After a lot of tests, we realize that the Panasonic Alkaline Batteries have quite the punch. It lasts long, and I don't have to change batteries quite often, so it's the best,” Team Singapore shared.
Powering up the community
The Panasonic team also kept the power going throughout the three-day event by giving away free Panasonic Alkaline Batteries and other exclusive freebies to attendees, letting more people experience the Japan-quality brand up close.
Ready to power up what’s next
The competition may be over, but the passion for Tamiya Car racing continues with the help of these longer-lasting batteries.
Now, racers can continue moving forward with assurance and peace of mind knowing that they’re fully equipped with Japan-quality power. Whenever. Wherever.
Storage period varies by country/region. With batteries in an unused state and properly stored. 9 V batteries excluded.
