In what way will a SCT provide you with fun that your existing cars won't?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Schumacher's main market is GB and in a way western Europe - at least not worldwide like some other brands.

As the SCs have become so popular in such a short time, it's hard to judge for a brand whether it's going to be around for another few years - aka, whether it's worth developing it. As a smaller brand you can't risk investing in the development of a car that won't be popular anymore by the time it's ready to put on the shelves of the hobby stores

That said, I haven't driven my (Kyosho Ultima) SC on a track yet, but it's a lot of fun bashing with it! It's back end is really loose (though with a less agressive driving style it goes pretty well), yet in a predictable and balanced way - it's easily the best car+kit setup for drifting I've driven so far It could be down to the mild brushless system though that I don't spin out, and the hard compound tires do help to keep the back end spinning!

Schumacher is a world wide brand...............

im sure one exists in development as they make the tyres now.
CS electronic do a conversion for the cougar to make into a stadium truck so wouldnt be too hard

I think you answered you own question? Hence the curiosity about how a buggy with a different body and tyres is going to be more fun than a buggy.

In the past I've watched people switch formula in order to 'win', or buy another car so they can get more races per club meeting. Both of these approaches increased the enjoyment they were getting out of racing so no problem there. The only worry is that it might reduce the ability of new drivers to improve as graded heats and finals disappear to be replaced by a single heat of 2WD, one of 4WD, one of 18th, one of SCT etc.
