I to am interested in how the Mission is performing in the rug. Have been attending some carpet races in my area and am looking to get back into a Schumacher (Had a sst99 and loved it). I have seen and read much about he mission on outdoor type tracks but not much has been said about it on carpet...any info would help.

Default Carpet Mission

I have been using my Mission on Gray ozite only, and cant speak for asphalt. But at every race I attend, people say how smooth my car looks, and ask the unevitable question-"What kind of car is that" then they look and say "I have never seen one of those before", "It looks very fast".
With those remarks in mind, my mission is getting better every time I use it. I have most of the goodies from Schumacher also, but who that drives a Losi or a AE car doesnt have all their goodies also.
I use the roll mod, aluminum hubs, grey frt belt, steel drive shafts, allow trans and layshaft, tie-everything, warpspeed chassis, spur adaptor 95t , alloy 20t pulley, thick sway bars, and RW Pulleys. That just about sum'd it up. Any questions feel free to ask.
Raul.
PS - Anyone going to Tauton, for the triple crown? Ill be there.

I may see you in Shreveport- I don't have enough parts to put my cars back together though...
You can use mine Jason, it's just sitting on the shelf waiting for a buyer.

Wow, looks liek you got that mission loaded up. I'm carrying warpspeed chassis, Alum layshaft and diff mounts, spur adapter, RW pullies, RW spurs, Losi threaded shocks (I like 'em better). I've noticed with the Mission that it carries an incredible amount of corner speed versus many other cars. In most sweepers I easily overake most other cars. What is the roll mod you're talking about??? Someone fill me in.

Scuieracer, you can look back a few pages and see plenty about the roll center mod. Basically it raises the front inner hinge pin location.

You can call Schumacher USA on how to do it. Paul will send you a file showing the process.

Will the Team PRP front roll center plates not work with the existing parts on the car?
