J.K Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I've been running a Schuey Cougar the last few months - these things are works of art but this one seems to take it up another level! 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babylon Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Only ever had one Schumacher, And that was a TopCat back in the day, Got it pretty much on day one as I had never had a proper race kit, Was £99, To be honest I wasn't that impressed with it, Poor fit and finish, Never could get the belt drive to run straight and true. Things appear to have moved on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyolien Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 The list of 'New' features sound like they made most of them up. Here's what I read. - New shade of black tyres. - Wheels are more rounder than previous model. - Gearbox 1mm further back. Last model we brought it 2mm forward. - New wishbone with 3 shock mounting holes instead of 2. - New gearbox gears. 1g lighter. - New medium to firm flex wishbones only on sunny days though.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
