New Version of KF Coming Anytime Soon?

[Bigdawgracer]

Hi All,

I'm looking at buying a KF, but don't want to buy one then suddenly there is a new version out!

So does anyone know if a new KF is due out anytime soon?

Thanks for reading!

its going to take some improving, only thing they could do is low grip in the kit, but im still running mine as high grip layout! But products are all ways being develeoped

I asked this a little while back.

Reason being the car the team run is quite different to the 'carpet orientated' one that comes in the box.

A version with a ball diff, low grip motor location & alloy chassis, etc would be top of my shopping list for next year.

Not sure how much business sense it would make for Schumacher though?!

I've heard few rumours of new car, towards xmas, quite a few tweaks wishbones mounted to chassis one of them.

When the KF gets a price drop that will give it away I guess

I am in the same situation with the K1 Aero. any hints of new version for xmas anyone???

As for the KF I would have thought there would be an update soon as this was a distinctively different concept to all other cars. They clearly weren't 100% confident about market acceptance of the concept as they carried on selling the SV2 alongside the KF and KR. I would guess and purely guess, more parts made for purpose rather than borrowed from the K1 and change the bodyshell for no real reason.

Suppose you can wait as they tend to do an update every 12 months. Or you could rationalize that the electronics are you main long term investment so what is losing a small amount on the chassis proved you don't go mad on upgrades and spares. The KR mk2 will be an evolution not a leap forward. I suspect an SV2 driven by the good driver on good tyres can easily win at club level you don't need the latest car.

Obviously never drivers them both on high and low grip......
