We are very lucky Grant (my son) is an ‘A’ team driver for Schumacher here in the UK so we have seen it and driven it.

Im stoked about the release of a schumacher 2wd. I ran the X-6 and B4 all season at our track after about 7 years off in offroad. I can tell you this if it corners half as good as the X-6 does it will be one of the top buggies around. I anxiously await the release of the car.

The car looks cool,but you can tell it's target market is the european turf track drivers. The lack of inner ball stud adjustments on the front end for the camber link makes me think that this may be a handfull to dial in on a dusty ,rough track here in the U.S. Also whats up with the bend in the front arms?That's going to make the arms side oriented so you will have to keep both L's and R's in your pitbox. I hated that about my t4. You end up with3-4 R in your box and no L's.Regardless Schumachers cars always look like the pinnacle of RC design. One of the few brands of cars that look better with the body off.I will have to wait and see this car on a U.S. track.

I'm looking to get back in the 2wd mod even more now. Be interested to see what it looks like with the body off.

I am betting with the tower behind the shocks design, the arms are swept back slightly. Plus if they were meant to be used on either side we would see bolt holes for the lower shock mount on the front side of one of the arms.After enlarging the pic I did notice that the ball stud for the inner camber link is mounted to a CF plate.Maybe different plates to get get different inner camber link adjustment???
