Schumacher Cougar 2000

[mjdodwell]

Hi All,

I have just joined this website/forum after being out of RCC racing for about 16 years. I originally raced a Procat and Bosscat back in the mid nineties in Gloucestershire at the Dowty Track.

Before I stopped racing I purchased a Cougar 2000, assembled it and then disassembled it and put it away. After talking with a mate over the past few days (Roger Mills), I pulled it out of the loft.

I am currently unsure what to do with it. Apart from dust all the parts are there, in various boxes, unfortunately original packaging binned long ago.

It has never been raced, never had a motor or radio gear fitted, so other than being a little dusty it is like new, even with original tyres with full tread.

I kind of want to reassemble it and get it into racing condition, get some gear for it and see it run again, but on the other hand I wonder if I should sell it and look for something up-to-date.

So, I thought I would post on the forum to get owners/racers opinions on vintage rc car and the Cougar 2000 as I have been out of the hobby for at least 16 years.

Cheers for any thoughts.

Matt
