Besides we have gone sideways here, back to the thread. Schumacher should make a new design and throw the old designs in the bin and come up with something new. They have designed pedegree machines before and they can do it again without the aid of the top drivers. Besides Schumacher has Russell Williams and he is no dab hand at buggies so its not as though they dont have any one good to test the cars is it. Schumacher have missed the race and fallen way behind, but now they should design something that will put them back up there.

what makes a good test and developement driver is different from a good racer..... the ability to give feedback, constructive criticism and suggestions to the design team is far more important than just 'being quick', and I am not Saying Russ isn't up to it either. Also, need more than one tester too.
I wouldn't like to see them going 'radical' on design though, I would rather a simple, well thought out car.

I think Russ has done 2 off rd meetings in about 3-4 years - F2's at Kidderminster with borrowed cars, and F2's at Holbeach last year with his B4 and my Pred X10.

Matt, will you be running this car?

hhmm... i hope schumacher comes up with something...
i hope schumacher comes up with something for the world champs. already team losi is not committing a team there. it'll be a dang shame for schumacher to do the same.
i'm actually hoping against hopes that schumacher will re-release the bosscat works (the best handling off-roader, in my opinion) updated with modern plastics and materials, re-tuned to use new wheels and tires. |

They might have an offroad team after losi goes tits up.. get on the phone schumacher, its your move !!
|
#92

|

lol, very diplomatic! Whatever Losi are doing, they are certainly reducing their off road team so I guess there are drivers available. In time for the worlds though? nahhhh, surely they don't have a car that far advanced.?!

They would only have to make a couple though
I remember a few years ago when shuey brought on board 2 of the uk`s finest just for the worlds |

I have a vision...

seriously though, with some new bits like schuey's new mi3 suspension mounts, harder arms and lighter transmission, the bosscat has world domination potential! WORLD DOMINATION! car handles the rough stuff the best i think. oh, and updated shocks... those old shocks have gotta go. -alexander p.s. then again, nah... schumacher's prolly need to ensure mi3's success before they can embark on a new racing project. so it's likely they won't have a team either. |

Lol! Return of the Bosscat! That's optimistic isn't it? Great cars in 1992, but I think they'd be lot better off re-releasing the CAT 2000 or 3000 as they would be closer to the pace by far now.

There is now talk or rumor that horizon might be sending a team to the worlds...just have to wait and see....as far as there wheeler...the xx-4 driven by Jesse Robbers won the first main at the shootout last weekend by beating both ryan's, amezcua, easton, tebo, masami, truhe, matsuzaki and howart. Not too bad for a car design that is 10 years old. He also qualified third overall. That is the only reason, I think Losi hasn't come out with a new car yet because of the results they are getting with the xx-4 and xxx-4....but I guess we will have to wait and see.
