People regularly race, drift and bash those three-speed Schumy's. No reason to shelf queen it, get out there and haul some ass!

even the smaller engines like the 4-tec 3.3 mine went thru tyres as often as it went thru a bottle of fuel

Yeah i had a 4-tec 3.3 also,it was crazy fast,i sold it.This car though is constanly changing in price due to the fact it's in euros in Europe,the currency changes so much to the USD $ amount it's crazy,so i'm gonna pay strict attention,cause the last i checked it was $558.99 USD 10 minutes it was 603 USD even.So what i'm hopping for is a quik drop,then jump on it pay,then pay the exchage rate and shipping.I just that it was neat that's all.For now,i'll race anyone here if you're local or when we take our motor home out.That would be fun.Regardless who wins,still just fun meetting people that are addicted like me.

You read it wrong, $558 for that shuemacher fusion,not a 4-tec,i had a 4-tec new from tower $50 off and free shipping.I paid ,well i think they go for 409,so 50 0ff or something,i don't know it was around 2008 .A while ago.

The car itself isn't worth the price... it just has a cool looking head on the engine. If you want a shelf queen, buy an xray and put the shumacher engine in it.

This is not a reply...Just a STATEMENT:
I see on the news CHINA is not treating there people well now. I for one am NOT going to buy any more China made items. It is far more important to treat people right than it is to own many items a person really does not need. There are many people buying cheap...just so they can own more RC items. Most of you have enough of this stuff to fool around with for many months. Please try to only buy what you need untill the CHINA leaders steart treating ther people better. I would like a new DLE20...but I can get along without it. I am sure many of you RC fans can get along with out buying any more China made item for quite a while. Look for quality made items right here in the USA is another good idea. We need more jobs....less junk setting around collecting dust. Thie will be cut & pasted on other forums too. Capt,n
