SCORE!! on that bearing website!

minichamps......i thought the fireblade was "pretty" no way you would catch me running it though.. different is not better, it is only different. if different was better it would no longer be different because everyone else would be doing it to. overall, i understand thses cars were not de...

definitely paint it like the box. i got one in the same condition and that is a big regret of mine that i messed up on a boxart opportunty shelf queen. the body and stickers are impossible to get so don't mess up, really no pressure....lol CONGRATS.

i agree, the color came out wrong. i just don't want to sound like a basher because the car has come a looonnng way and i am really impressed. it would look better black. can you also dye the trans case and ball ends or are they the wrong material?? in the end, do what you would like and :shock: NICE

i know i am on the schumacher forum and maybe i should not be. i noticed that everybody that sticks up for these cars is in europe/australia ect. here in the usa you fight a uphill battle at all times with a schu that is not worth it just to have a pretty car. you can make these cars work but why. i...

my sig says it all

make sure you remove the felt seals and plastic retainer from around the outdrives. put a bearing(same as b4 bearing) in the gear case around the outdrives. this is the biggest improvmest. it keeps everything from wobling and eating idlers.

nice find

any pics of a new 2wd. i never heard anything about it.

what also hurt schumacher in the u.s.a. is the extemely layed down shocks and lack of a slipper on some models like the usa edition fireblade. very cool cars though and i agree they were out of there element.

nice job, pics didn't pop up fast for me. its amazing how much fun it is to take a piece of junk and make it into something nice. good work.

dye them blue. if you don't like it then dye them black. you can always go darker...

i ran a rc10 team car graphite this winter and qualified 10th in the A and finished 9th. At the 2 minute mark i was in 4th before getting in "the big one" lol. my car turned excellent. my car will turn times as fast as my b4 but......the b4 is much for forgiving and easier to be consistent...

thundertiger is supposed to be making a sport buggy and truck with the b3/t3 molds similar to wheat duratrax did with the losi xx stuff. whan this happens i am hoping to pick up some thundertiger wheels and we will have wheels again. as for black, just dye them.
