Infinity IF14-2MID 1:10 Electric Touring Car

Infinity has released a new ‘MID’ version of its IF14-2 1:10 Electric Touring Car. Developed through numerous tests in actual races from the 2023 JMRCA All Japan Championship to the 2024 TITC, the basic structure of the MID’s suspension and drivetrain is inherited from the IF14-2 Team Edition. By equalising the front and rear drive belts and positioning the spur gear near the centre of the wheelbase, the weight distribution front and rear has been significantly altered. In addition to the stability of the IF14-2, it has evolved into a faster cornering car. The main spare parts and optional parts are compatible with the IF14-2. While the conventional split-type suspension holder allowed for fine setting changes, it had drawbacks such as increased weight and complexity in settings. In the IF14-2 MID kit the front and rear suspension blocks are integrated, helping simplify assembly and setup tuning. This style offers easier maintenance allowing you to enjoy more time on track. It is also possible to use the traditional split-type suspension blocks as an option.
