Tama Tech was an amusement park that operated in Hino, Tokyo, Japan from 1961 to 2009. It closed permanently on September 30, 2009.[1]

History

[edit | edit source]

The park opened in 1961 and was owned by the Honda Motor Company. The park attractions involved motorsports.[2] The park featured a variety of mechanized vehicles which visitors could try out.[3]

In addition to Honda vehicles and electric vehicles, park visitors also could ride a roller coaster and a Ferris wheel. In the winter months park goers could also ice skate.[4]

Occasionally Honda introduced a product at the park which made it to mass production. In the case of the Honda Z100 minibike, Honda began to mass produce the bike after seeing its success at the park.[5] The descendant of the minibike was the Honda CZ100, and it was introduced to the European market in 1964.[6]
