Inferno GT2 Audi A4 DTM 2007: Race Heritage in Scale

Racing Roots Behind the Replica

The Audi A4 DTM 2007 was a standout competitor in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, carrying factory backing that led to strong results that season. This Kyosho recreation captures the livery and spirit of that era so you can run a piece of DTM history at club events or practice sessions.

Chassis Evolution and Power

Derived from the Inferno MP7.5, the Kyosho Inferno GT2 improves on-road dynamics with a 35mm longer wheelbase for increased straight-line stability and smoother cornering. Power comes from the GXR28SG engine, complemented by dual disk braking for dependable stopping and a race-minded two-speed gearing layout.

Standout Upgrades and Tuning Points

  • Improved Stability: The extended wheelbase adds composure at speed and makes the car less nervous through high-speed corners.
  • Advanced Braking System: Dual disk brakes provide consistent stopping force and fade resistance for repeated runs.
  • Customization Potential: Turnbuckle upper arms and tie rods let you dial in toe and camber for different tracks.
  • Aesthetic Enhancements: Blue anodized wheel hubs and shock caps give the model a clean, race-ready look.
  • Enhanced Speed: A revised 2-speed ratio helps achieve higher top-end velocity on long straights.
  • Increased Run Time: The larger 150cc fuel tank stretches session length between refuels.
  • Responsive Design: A smaller flywheel sharpens throttle response for quicker acceleration out of corners.
  • Durable Differentials: Spiral type ring and pinion gears in the diffs promote smooth power transfer under load.
  • Complete Build: The car ships fully assembled with the R/C system pre-installed for fast track time.
