Cougar 2000 Timeline / info ?
I need more info about the Cougar 2000. All versions.
Could this be correct? : * Cougar-2000 1993 first version * Cougar-2000 early 1994 Spec (new driveshafts) * Cougar-2000 XPC late 1994 (narrow chassis and SAC) * Cougar-2000 95-Team 1995 (new rear suspension geometri) Please correct if this is wrong!  Regarding the SAC. It was sold as an option for the first Cougar-2000, right? When did Schumacher start to sell it? During 1994?

What is important for me to know is the year each car is made and sold. In the Nordic Vintage Cup we can only use cars from 1994 and older. I really need to be sure which car and which parts will be "legal" for me to use. Can I use my Cougar 2000 XPC? If it was sold in 1994, yes! If it arrived in 1995, no! When did the SAC front suspension/steering arrived at the market?

If it's u474a then I would of thought you should be fine. The only place to tell you for sure would be Schumacher I'd give them a quick call and ask
1994 Cougar 2000/95 spec U474A £199 Also known as "XPC" spec with narrow chassis, SACs 1995 Cougar '95 Team U499Z £199 3rd at 1994 Euros - narrow chassis, new rr sus. Geometry I would take that as pretty spot on

I thought the First Cougar 2000 was 1994 as the Cougar 2 Works was 1993. When the first batch of Cougar 2000s came out they had a drive shaft issue. The red alloy drive shafts were too short and would pop out. Schumacher revised this within a couple of months and kits were updated with the longer drive shafts.
But I am almost certain it was 1994 this all happened because I had one and Schumacher replaced the drive shafts free of charge through the model shop. I maybe wrong though.

The Cougar 2000 was definitely available in 1993, it ran in both the euros and worlds that year too. There was an overlap with the Cougar 2 works.
The years in that RC10talk thread are pretty spot on, the only thing it's missing in relation to the Cougar 2000 are the non OEM conversions (COMCOM and FAB2000) Paul.

It is still possible to order those parts from FibreLyte, he he... I will have one FABIIX-2000 Mid enginge car and one rear engine car Race Ready for the Vintage racing 2WD class (in 4WD it will be a CAT-2000 or/and a Yokomo). I just want o be 100% sure that the Cougar 2000 XPC really was available in 1994! I have now sent an email to Schumacher.
