Schumacher Cougar SV 2WD Buggy
 
Schumacher have at last confirmed the rumours of a new 2WD buggy with a stealthily photoshopped shilouette of the new 'Cougar SV'. The picture doesn't give away much but with the buggy doing the rounds in secret testing recently rumour is that it might make a debut at the Petit race in the UK this coming weekend.

Schumacher: Schumacher have brought you a tradition of Performance technology, with a pedigree second to none, the Cougar SV is no exception! Engineered by some of the most respected design guru’s in the R/C industry, the Cougar SV retains the same Schumacher ethos, yet uses a fresh approach to modern technology.

Not bad at all

Looks very nice so far, there's something almost retro about that image too.

telboy 13-01-2010 03:19 PM

You're right Mark, the spur gear has a moulding in the bodyshell. So its obviously mid motored.

Looks like a classic retro designed shell, very cool looking.

hide 13-01-2010 03:22 PM

I've also heard stickpack down the middle, not sure on how reliable that it.

Chrislong 13-01-2010 03:29 PM

I hear it is awesome, and that was after wet track testing. So guys - defo keep eye on this one!! :thumbsup:

CODMAN 13-01-2010 03:44 PM

I hope it was designed around Lipos... and not Cells this time...:p

jim76 13-01-2010 06:02 PM

MikePimlott 13-01-2010 06:10 PM

Garry Driffill 13-01-2010 06:18 PM

David Church 13-01-2010 06:27 PM

For the record I haven't heard anything. Just guessing....

If they wanted a surprise they should have kept quiet until the toy fair or petit or whatever it is

I am guessing this will do!!!

mikeyscott 13-01-2010 07:51 PM

Either way I'll be saving for one / asking for a pay rise at work!

I wish them luck with the launch and the car etc. :)

Jonesy 13-01-2010 08:12 PM

As a team driver I can honestly say that I REALLY REALLY REALLY can't wait to get my hands on this car. My current 2wd did me fantastic in the 2009 Nationals but based on the rumours I've heard I honestly feel this will help to improve my results further.

I'm kind of glad it's not at the Petit as well as I'm not there!!

Looking forward to seeing Mossy, Grant or Tommy C with it shortly :thumbsup:

Aye, just one weekend too much unfortunately mate. Pregnant missus and the weekend away at the BRCA Open Meeting in 2 weeks coupled with a number of club races plus the 240 mile journey to get there.

Maybe next time, I heard amazing things about it.

Back onto the Cougar SV though, I still can't wait!!
