It's real close from 1st to 4th. I didn't get a hold of the Schumacher blue inserts for the RP 36's to test but a local racer did have the yokomo firm super thins so I glued them up. The car was stuck. It flowed really well and had nice bite. Once the track started to heat up some they were a little on the edge. I plan on trying the same insert in a set of RP 40's. Barry made fun of me running your body colors but it will be in front of him once it's all said and done. Time to go to the movies so I'll report more later on.

Ok. MI3 at the end of the year, maybe. You know, for a Schumacher car that's an awfully long product cycle.
Will there be interrim edition of the MI2 with the new shcumacher shocks I've heard rumours about and with the Teemu chassis? Or will that be the MI3?
I'm thinking about buying MI2. But I have Axis in a box somewhere, it's IMO pile of It must be the worst designed car I've ever had, even with the typical Schumacer good points like the blades on the driveshafts. The only things I could rely on on that car is that it would become tweaked in every single heat, that it would get rocks in the belts and maybe snap one and that the front bumper would break at least once every race day. After my experience with that car I swore never to buy Schumacher car again. But maybe I'm gettin mellow with old age. Still if I have to buy TRF shocks and BMI or Teemu chassis and maybe Corally steering rack to get MI2 to work on track, then why do it?

The only thing that I feel is needed are the lowered carpet towers. Instead of coming on here and flaming the old car with your past experiences try coming on here asking the question you have about the new car that you might be looking into getting. Getting off on the wrong foot isn't going to help point you in the right direction. The new car doesn't tweak too easily so that problem is now gone. The bumper holds up pretty well in stock form. The only thing that we have done to reinforce the front bumper is to get the Pdub front bumper foam. It's firmer than the stock foam. Everyone on here will be more than happy to answer any questions that you have. We're here to help. Are there any other issues that concern you at this time????
