1RC Racing Releases Their Second-generation Midget Racer

If you want to bring the excitement of oval-track racing to your backyard, the lineup of sprint, Silver Crown, and midget cars from 1RC Racing appears to fit the bill. Their latest release is the second-generation of their 1/18-scale, ready-to-run (RTR) midget racer, the Midget 2.0.

There are a number of internal updates on this model, including a new 2.4GHz radio system (transmitter and receiver), a standalone ESC, full ball bearings, and a refreshed steering servo.

The visual aspects of this racing machine have been tweaked as well. The Midget 2.0 has received an updated hood design, new side nerf bars, a shortened front bumper, and new cage sides. Each RTR model also includes Hoosier-branded tires mounted to black racing wheels.

Three body panel color options are available (black, red, and clear), allowing you to customize your racing machine to be as realistic or personalized as you'd like.

Priced at $189.99, the 1RC Racing Midget 2.0 will be available online through 1rc-racing.com.
