Cool to get a collection from another enthusiast and keep them all together. Lots of nice mods that only someone who knows those cars could do without a ton of research.
Well the 2000 range was just after i left back in the day, but from what little knowledge i have, the 2000 USA is the one with the laydown shocks i think, and all except one seem to be running the hydra drive system, i could be wrong, but looks it to me. Thats a cracking find, ive just built a cougar 2000 i had sitting around, but kevin fenrich who does a few machined parts had allways wanted one, he’s a great guy so decided to gift it to him. I just hope i have enough spares to build one for myself 😂
Cool group of kits you picked up, I am no help identifying them but like you said all look to be top notch and great kits so a great idea to snag the whole lot!
It was a lot worth grabbing. Although it was centered around the storm, the 4 firestorm allow me to have a bunch of runner 2wd set up for friends and family at the track.
They sure look like track cars to me. If you have a crappy one I may be interested. Not into nastalgia just like runners for the track... Anyways yet another set of cars I have never seen. Coffee with Keith successfully again. Thanks my friend.
Last buggy is fireblade 2000. As for the others you need to look at the servo position but it looked like two evos and partial usa. I race 2000 in UK and would love some better pictures off the modified front hubs as I would loveto get hex on my front too. I do have a 2000 and a early usa (hand painted flag on the box) but sadly no evos. By the way the ujs are called blades and have replaceable ends at the transmition end. Early blades had less metal at the hub end and bent so are really sort after. I have never seena strom with carbon chassis but it look cool. I would love some more pictures as I am sure they would give me ideas for mods to my car.
Very cool. I had a Nitro 10 Puma, which when the engine died I converted to electric and started to race in the truck group at my local club in the UK with a Storm body. The group was very small so I turned it into a Cougar and raced in the 2wd buggy class, I still have that car. In the meantime I raced (and eventually sold) a Cougar 2 and Cougar 2000 (plus a Losi XX and lastly a B2 which I also still have). Great vid 👌
Enjoyed the video. Tip: use a Fireblade undertray and unpainted body to act as a dirt shield. I would also suggest trying to get proper Storm 2000 shock towers, then the body should sit a lot lower. The slipper clutches you point out look like Visco drives, which was Schumacher’s interpretation of the Losi Hydradrive, cheers, (a Richard but maybe not the one you are referring too 🤣)Richard (PS my knowledge of RC is limited to mostly pre 1993 buggies and trucks, so I’m not familiar with the Fireblade!)
They are the VISCO drives. I found that out during my research afterwards. Appreciate the tips. I actually have the original towers although 1 is broken. Probably going to have Nick Walker make some new ones.
Buyee bar….. no just bargains. Some beautiful race cars. I’m sure you will enjoy learning about them. All I know is I’d have photos everywhere to revert back to his set ups if I was to change anything.
Awesome haul Keith. Best is thiss sorting box with all these spare parts.
It's an interesting lot for sure!
Nice and Cool Rc "Unboxing"❤

A couple of them look like the cougar 2000, fireblades had the laydown front suspension
Cool lot buy! Maybe race one in Australia???

FANTASTIC that Schumacher lot , very COOL !!
You don't have enough RC Cars 😂 love the video! I don't know my Schumacher cars, sorry. Get them out on the track!!
How did you know i was a Schumacher fan boy haha ive made a brew, couple of biscuits and sitting comfey to watch this 👍
Now that is a lot of love. I’m not very smart when it comes to Schumacher but those kits look awesome and that is a ton of parts.
It worked out in the end. There is enough there to get some cars up and running on the track
Ohh WOW,,,Treasure,, l would be like Gollum "My Precious!" Great vid, Cheers Keith!

AWESOME box of stuff mate. That Storm is soo fricken cool too with all the mods. What a great thing.
Heluva haul. I’ve honestly never heard of any of these.

are we going to see any of them going round your track
Hoping so. It would be nice to get a couple together as track cars for whoever wants to run a 2wd.

Great idea, not sure yet what I will do yet but regardless, it is a nice pile of stuff.
2 number Viscous drive slipper a bit like losi hydra drive
Someday I’ll have a Schumacher to go with my namesake
How many are you going to run?
shoe maker ?😀
