A Scaled Tribute: Inferno GT2 Audi A4 DTM 2007

Why the DTM A4 Matters

The Audi A4 DTM 2007 earned attention on the DTM grid for its pace and team backing that season. This Kyosho model recreates the look and presence of that car so hobbyists can enjoy competitive styling with full-scale race cues.

What the Inferno GT2 Brings to the Table

Building on lessons from the MP7.5, the Inferno GT2 adds a 35mm longer wheelbase to improve stability at high speed and through fast corners. It is powered by the GXR28SG engine and fitted with dual disk brakes to provide consistent braking performance across repeated runs.

Tuning Features and Visual Details

  • Improved Stability: The longer wheelbase reduces twitch and makes the car more predictable on entry.
  • Advanced Braking System: Dual disk setup improves fade resistance during heavy use.
  • Customization Potential: Adjustable turnbuckle upper arms and tie rods allow precise steering geometry tweaks.
  • Aesthetic Enhancements: Blue anodised wheel hubs and shock caps add authentic race styling.
  • Enhanced Speed: A reworked 2-speed ratio helps raise top speed on long straights.
  • Increased Run Time: 150cc fuel tank reduces the frequency of pit stops.
  • Responsive Design: A smaller flywheel sharpens throttle response for tighter track use.
  • Durable Differentials: Spiral ring and pinion gears deliver reliable drivetrain performance.
  • Complete Build: Supplied fully assembled with the R/C gear already installed for quick track time.

The Kyosho Inferno GT2 Audi A4 DTM 2007 suits enthusiasts who want a historically inspired shell on a modern, tuneable 1/8 GP platform. It is ready for club races yet forgiving enough for learning setup basics.

Yes, the car ships fully assembled with the R/C system fitted so you can get running after basic radio and fuel checks.

Inspect and clean diffs, gears and bearings after every few sessions and replace or lubricate parts showing wear to keep performance consistent.
Yes, shock springs and oils are typical tuning items to balance body roll and ride height for various circuit conditions.
Start with a safe needle setting from the manual, then tune for smooth throttle response and stable idle as you break in the engine.
