So is that the original next to it or the replica that dan did for Schumacher I wonder

No that's the original car that live at Schumacher HQ with the Re release, I think dan sold his a while ago.

Cool little video for those who may not have seen it

That looks like the inside of a instruction manual can't wait now!

are you guys pre ordering direct with schumacher?

I preordered the buggy through Schumacher means I didn't have to pay vat:thumbsup:

Speed secrets
 

Do these speed secrets come in the Masami kit or are the options to buy ???

Speed secrets are Schumachers hop up parts so are all extra, the kit is just how it would of originally been

Lovely will get the tranny upgrade for sure , just a thought if one stumme in to an english hospital and order an tranny upgrade what do i then get ???😳
Anyway the plastic Will be 30 years better i hope
If the tranny upgrade from schumacher contains new diffs and a layshaft belts then it sounds cheap

Does anybody know if the due date for release is still March? Ive pre ordered 2 but looking on modelsports site it says due date May? I cant wait much longer!!
Also, where can I get the chrome wheels from?

I got an email from Schumacher early last week saying first batch due early April for shipping so if you missed out on the first batch it could be may

Some site are taking preorders for the chrome wheels look up the thread abit peakey gave some details on how to get them

Apparently there been a copyright issue with one of the manufacturers but I think it's all sorted now but yes looks like May now, the chrome wheels should be available from anyone who sells Schumacher stuff

Thanks for the info. Gutted its going to be May now though. Will have to get the old predator out in the meantime just hope the gearbox hold out until May

Do you know what the copyright issue was about seems strange when it's their car?

But the decals on the shell are not

Be a bit sad if that's the case free advertising :)

Would be like all the re re Tamiya's. free advertising or royalties🙄

Out of interest, anyone planning on going non boxart. Having drooled over Jimbo's and Dan Rowlands replicas, I will be going full Masami.

White knight for us .
!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Another CAT and more vintage...
 

Now it's time RC companies like kyosho and Yokomo produce again vintage kits like zx-r and yz10.
And how knows, maybe it's time for a new cat except XLS...
Please Schumacher give us a new CAT 2000...

No boxart for me this time. Mine will be a Trinity advert car, already have the body :)

Thanks for the kind words. J1mbo was the original replica which I fell in love with and then made mine :)

Yep 9 years old now:wub:wub

has anyone had any updates on when we might be getting our pre ordered cars yet? it just says out of stock on the website now:(

looks like its going to be May

i had an email about my order today, looks like we now have to wait till 7th of june...

Yep, tbh I'm beginning to get rather fed up with the dates being pushed back and back. If the product wasn't ready for release, then don't put it up for sale. I might paint mine up in the windows box art as seems appropriate at the moment lol.

Have you had to pay up front to pre order it?

£50 pre order

Already cancelled one of mine , did want 2 one for the shelf and one as a runner but the delay has really taken the shine off , will just be happy to get one as a runner now. I am sure I am not the only one.
