Ok people I will start this off. the cars are redicuacly priced and way to fast for the plastic that comes with it. whats the fun of buying a $400.00 car and knowing once that you floor it for more then 3 seconds it will break in half. example.

MENACE
1st gear 20 miles per hour (ok good speed)
2nd gear 40-45 miles per hour (A little fast but still fun)
3rd gear 70-80 mph (YOU **** YOURSELF)
whats so fun about that!!

i dont want to **** myself from being afraid so much of hitting a car and having the thing smashed into a quater.

so to fast, to expensive FOR THIS CAR there is cars that are worth 400 and are a good deal.
well that s my $6.76
LETS GET THIS GOING!

there is a little something called self control. you don't always have to hit the 70MHP. is't good to know it's there if you need it.

Nice, an "official" thread for a brand that does not exist...

There is no "Schumaker" Brand RC Vehicles...

There is a [link=http://www.racing-cars.com]Schumacher[/link], however...

I have a older single speed XTR adn I love it. It is screaming fast and I have not had a problem due to speed. The Schumacher is an awsome R/C I do not regret getting it and feel sorry for those who don't know how to handle it. Yea, it can reach full speed in 40 seconds, but you don't have to keep the throttle in. As I said before, self control will help tou control the Schuie.

Each wheel weighs around 75 grams. This is a lot heavier than plastic rims, but will have added advantages of stabilising the car at speed by helping to stop it from taking off! i have alloys on my rustler, and they improve the handling so much.

wow, I never thought that having alloys would improve handling. but now that i think about it it really makes alot of sense!
