The FT9 is designed to be a winner in the close and exciting ‘Frontie’ FWD racing class.
The FT9 incorporates many features from the hugely successful Mi9 touring car, to make a superbly engineered racer.
It is fast, light weight, and agile with a super low centre of gravity.
The FT9 contains all the features and adjustments you need from a high end front wheel drive to take you to the top of the podium.
