Scale Tribute to the Chevrolet Corvette C6-R

The Corvette C6-R earned notable GT results, including a 1-2 at Le Mans in 2006 and a strong second in 2007. Kyosho's Inferno GT2 reproduces that racing spirit in a 1/8 scale model for enthusiasts and racers.

Engineered for Stable On-Road Performance

Building on the Inferno MP7.5 legacy, the GT2 delivers improved stability through an extended wheelbase and race-focused geometry. The GXR28SG engine provides consistent nitro power, ready for track practice or competition.

Key Upgrades and Tuning Options

  • Improved Stability: A 35mm wheelbase increase enhances balance and directional control.
  • Advanced Braking System: Twin disc brakes ensure dependable stopping with reduced fade.
  • Precision Tuning: Adjustable turnbuckle upper arms and tie rods allow detailed alignment and camber changes.
  • Enhanced Speed: Modified two-speed gearing increases top speed potential when required.
  • Extended Run Time: The 150cc fuel tank supports longer sessions between refuelling.

Additional items include blue anodised wheel hubs and shock caps, a smaller flywheel for snappier throttle response, and robust spiral ring and pinion differentials for improved service life.
