Schumacher @THE WORLDS
 
Just been looking at the pics on NeoBuggy, it looks like Simon Moss is running an SV2/K1 hybrid, any news or pics about it?

most if not all are using mid motor cars because the track is being sugared and has simular grip levels as astro

looks more like an SX3 centre section than a K1 one, would make sense as the belt would be in the middle if they did use the SX3 rear drive train

And how on earth can you tell that from that pic :confused:

bobbin 24-09-2013 05:01 PM

Having owned a sx3 and now running a k1 looking through the window it looks very sx3 to me, might be wrong but the screws look in the right place

CARB 24-09-2013 05:03 PM

yes you could be right about the SX3 as the centre transmission looks the same, zoom in on the window on the image, but could this be the birth of another car configuration rear, mid and now a forward mid motor.

bobbin 24-09-2013 05:17 PM

Makes sense to take a forward, mid and rear motor 2wd cars to the world's, I would.
Seeing how the rudebits db1 and now db2 handle round my local track Schumacher would be silly not to consider a forward motor layout car, Maybe the 4wd converted to 2wd success has got them thinking

+1

The KR is following their new design trend set of the K1 and the SV2 is probably due an upgrade in light of all the other companies coming out with new 2wds.

They may be following the trend set by the TM2 (and suspected of the XRay XB2) of using a 4wd rear section and 2wd front section.

Would be interesting if someone manages to grab a body off shot :thumbsup:

Well at least no one can moan about it being a 4wd car running in 2wd.:lol:

Tobamory 24-09-2013 05:46 PM

It is a K1, as the spur is on the right on the K1 and not the left, if it was the SX3, you wouldn't see the layshaft bearing.

deff not a k1 housing
k1 layshaft is far lower (level with lipo height) in the pic you can see the cover for the ratio gears on the other side and the top of the spur in front of the layshaft bearing nearest camera.
just comapared my k1 and sx3 def the later

DCM 24-09-2013 07:27 PM

So that may mean that we are looking at the next 2wd from the Schumacher stable then???

If it is, I hope they change the production bodyshell!

ian h 24-09-2013 07:51 PM

gazhillAE 24-09-2013 08:54 PM
