Any Schumacher fans out there?

[Supershot]

Are there any of you that like or own Schumacher cars?I recently went to Metro Hobbies,Melbourne and saw a Schumacher Fireblade Evo!The store is selling the kit for a inexpensive price compared to competitors with cars in the same status!The car is marketed as "the best 2wd offroad buggy in the world"-quiet a big claim!My first memories of Schumacher cars stem from Masami winning the worlds with a CAT XLS,as well the same car being on the front cover of the first issue of r/c cars for dirt and track!I also remember Hobby Place(melbourne)stocking the same car(1987-88?)Any opinions on these cars?

Schueys aren't all that common on the offroad tracks today, most of the cars there are AE and Losi.

Mission is getting pretty popular onroad though, perhaps due to the good-value prices the new kits are going for. You do get a lot for your $$ in that little box.

Hey Supershot, I've got a coupe of Schueys... a Cougar buggy and a Club 10 buggy, a Storm and Shotgun electric truck, and a Nitro 10 gas truck (with .15 donk)... and a badword of a lot of spare parts!!!

If you make it to the Melbourne meet tomorrow, you might be able to see one or more of them... if I can get them going [?]

Burp.. i have a XLS nib and a new built..

Schueys arent as popular as AE and Losi, only one at my local club regularly... and he is starting to drive a losi more now..

Cat 3000 came 1,2,3 at the national indoor finals though!... cant be bad..
