Hehe well I drove a mid motor version not long after the Basildon Worlds and wasnt any good, but then again it was made by Fabiix so maybe that says it all. It had a few good ideas at the time but it was missing the real testing and devlopment which it needed big time.

Id like to see a good 2wd come from Schumacher, its been a long long time since their last good one.

im having a mess about with my old cat 3k n turned it into a 2wd. so far ive increased the front kickup, moved the motor more rearward sat th rear shocks on the front of the wishbone so reversed the rear end basically also currently trying a 5/ 1 config on the cells to move weight rearward as much as possible. n yeah as mentioned in ealier posts theres very little throw of weight under acceleration and braking

I know I would like to run another 2wd car from Schumacher. I did well with the Fireblade cars and raced almost every touring car they have made since 1998.

I've got one of them aswell, the FAB2000.

I'm still trying to find the parts to build a FAB !

I even ran mine on road back in the day.
t'was a good car on the right track.

As for the new car, just build a Schumacher B4 !

I have never seen a Fab 2000. Any pics or link?:)

As mentioned here before : give us the option of using a viscious drive again ! I loved it on very bumpy and slippery tracks.

That front end is soooooo sexual!!!! I love the laydown stuff.

If anyone has a mint Schumacher 2wd of any generation with the laydown front end, please do PM me.

I wonder if the SX is laydownable? :blush:

i had my SX apart over the weekend, no top deck or belt and the lipo will fit down the centre of the chassis, just got to figure out where the servo would sit!

B4 front end on cat chassis, mmmmmm!
