Yep well off topicBut this will force me to go look in the loft as I have copys of RRC mag from early 80s through till 90s......knew they were worth keeping

Is this the AYK you are thinking of? 4wd chain drive - brings back memories!

That could well have been,that was many many years ago at maidstone or some other rough old place at a south of watford or regional...........how old were you then 5 10 I was much older er 12.....13 them was the days!!

There aren't any pics of the car around - as far as i'm aware anyway!! I'll put it another way - there shouldn't be any!

[telboy]

No there shouldn't, look what happened with the Mi3!

[Lee]

Yeah, i remember mr schumacher being a very unhappy bunny about those leaked pics.

[MattW]

No, they weren't overly impressed when that happened. Hence the desire to stop it happening again

[telboy]

I'm keeping schtum!

[MattW]

I've been keeping quite for months

[glypo]

Does anyone think we are likely to get these for the summer racing season?

Schumacher have been saying 1-2 months after the toy fair. But we all know realistically projects get set back. Like the Mi3 was months and months behind initial date, as has ever other major Schumacher car in past few years. Not that it's a bad thing, obviously it's making sure we get the best end product. It's probably why there is no no official word from Schumacher on the whole thing yet. However when people are saying these dates this time, seems with real confidence. Is the project really that far advanced that we could really be racing these in just a few months?

Would be awesome if so.

The car will be released in the spring i am told
