As long as Schumacher can keep the cost right down, Schumacher have won. Maybe they will win, even if the cost goes up ? Having said that, I've just bought two VRX CE Mardaves with diffs and they cost me £105'ish each. For what you get, that's not cheap. I still remember the days of £55 (car, 4 cell, speedo, motor and charger). The CE does not even come with a motor !
Whether Schumacher takes over any of the many oval classes is entirely down to the racers as a lot of the BRCA classes specify that a Mardave car must be used. Mardave will only lose out if the drivers vote in the Schumacher cars, which surely will only happen if the majority of drivers want to run the Schumachers.
