Both kits have been driven to victory by team drivers, both have aluminum bulkheads, aluminum shocks, innovative features, qaulity parts, etc..... So what exactly acconts for the $170 difference? Not picking on Tamiya, its just that they make for a good example...
The thing that turned me off about the Schumacher were the fact I'd have to dump $150 into it right away for a stiffer chassis and steel MIP's (I run carpet exclusively, mostly Mod) Plus I can get parts easier and faster for the Tamiya (SpeedTech RC) as opposed to Schumacher USA. Schumacher's a nice car but I'd choose the Tamiya over it.
Screw em both. Get a used X-Ray FK off E-Bay
