IDM Tuned tires and clutch system

As some of you may have noticed, we have a new advertiser on the site in the form of IDM, the company run by top Italian racing driver Daniele Ielasi. Best known for his range of IDM Tuned Picco made engines, the former European Champion is also extending the IDM line to carry other products as well. IDM are getting into the tire business with the release of a complete range of foam 1/8th scale and 1/10th scale tires made by ATS and we are told that there will be changes made to the wheels you see in the picture above before launch. Other items include the IDM branded and Capricorn made clutch system for 1/8th scale, that features a vented clutch bell and 3 different clutch shoes for varying effects.
