When I just saw this in redrc I HONESTLY thought they had had a database error and re-published a very old story!

I was impressed by this car when it first came out. In 2001.

Good to see a truly budget touring car from a racing manufacturer though. These have been sorely lacking for a couple of years now.

I think this is really great. For a beginner this would awesome. I know many may say get a T3R or used T2, etc. But you got to understand, as a beginner - it would be quite frustrating to get caught up in all the adjustments that newer refined chassis offer! We all begun somewhere, for me it was the TA-02 and that is even more basic. So it will keep cost down, its plenty durable, easy to drive and will provide just as much excitement to the newcomer.

I have to be honest here guys....I really like the idea of this. The car looks really good. Nice to see this addition to the racing segment of our hobby for beginners. Nice job Schumacher!!

The Mi-1 is a great car. I just barely got rid of my old one and the guy that has it now loves it. They are easy to set up and will hold their own. I am kinda wishing I hadn't gotten rid of mine now.

Is there any projected costs here in the US yet?

Interesting. Does anyone know what the changes are on this car from the original?

drbelleville

Might you carry these by any chance?

I think that they may have upgraded/changed the pulleys, to better be able to handle brushless motorization perhaps? I can not say that i know though.

We're certainly looking into it!

The lower chassis is changed and the Rear shock tower is different. The rest looks the same as when it first came out. I cant tell from the pictures if the Axles are the plastic ones or not.

In the picture the drive train looks as it did back then. One belt front to rear diff and one belt from lay shaft to rear diff. This might work out just fine for slower classes....like 17.5 and under size motors.


Having raced this car when it was out way back when its cool to see Schumacher doing something like this to get a car out there for under 200USD that a new racer/you can pick up and race. This would make a really nice USVTA or USGT type car.....too bad Schumacher USA is gone.

What a great idea !! Good going Schumacher. The Mission was a great chassis and taught me alot. This updated version should be the choice of any new or sportsman level driver.
