Well my plane leaves in a few hours, but I can give you a quick discription; they are slightly wider, lighter and "WAY" stiffer If there wasn't so many different types of cars, I could almost guarantee less broken parts

These bumpers are very nice. they are thicker and much stiffer than any other bumper I have seen. The people I have seen using the bumper say that it protects the front suspension better than any other bumper they have used.

The foam the bumpers are made of is harder and wont give in like all the other bumpers they dont fall apart either. Trust me this is the best bumper you'll ever use! It does what its supposed to to protect your front suspension!
Like paul said " look for any of the schumacher guys and we'll help you.

I am starting to wonder who will be on top this year. This year will be different, I see a lot of new cars and drivers switching. So who will it be?


Dang it I woke up on florida time which made it 6am I have been to socal, hobby people, and tamiya and they are all closed while its barely 11:46 am.
Jeeze you all need to wake up earlier on the west coast! (sarcasm)

Cant wait for the race o start!

Me too. I had Batteries 3 weeks ago, motors 3 weeks ago, bodies came in a month ago. New car built a month ago. Set the car up Sunday night, made a check list and got everything packed ready to go Monday. I'd say i'm ready for this one
