Another car Ive been desperate to finish thats taken me ages to get done.For the most part this car is a Procat but runs a saddle pack XLS chassis with an XLS body and undertray. Not quite done but I intend to race this in an up and coming vintage meet.
A shame Shumie didn't have a bigger presence here in the US, that's some sweet stuff. I recall a local club racer "oddball" that did run Schumacher, but with no LHS support it really made no sense here.
Yes I have spoken with James before. It would be awesome to have you guys come down for this vintage meeting,its shaping up to be a good one for sure. Im certain Antony,Alex,Darryn and a few others will be coming up from down south too. I was out at the track on Saturday running my 501X and caught up with Scott Hogan down there too ( a fellow vintage Schumacher friend).
Ive been puting the invite out there to have people come stay at mine but by then I think we will have moved on to another new -much smaller- house.Lets just see what happens as it gets closer. Last year was awesome,Ant brought his PIT TRAILER and about 30 vintage cars. We set our cars on display and it was blowing people away with all the old girls. This year will be huge with many people coming out of the wood work with some great old cars.
Looking good Jason. You are motivating me - I might have to pull my finger out" and build a few of mine.
ASA - mail in your inbox!!
Cheers
Darryn

That paintjob is awesome mate! It reminds a bit on the Bonnevilles cars ...

That looks like a ProCat undertray and an XLS body..
The ProCat trays are still available from Schumacher new, and are not expensive.. The XLS shells do get repro'd from time to time by Schumacher but supply is limited and you would probably get 50 bucks for it...
Hi guys.
Ive recently opted to make the name change on here from Bormac to simply J.M.
I'm sorry if this confuses anybody but this was a change I have wanted for a while now. Eventualy I will change all my screen names used on the net to my...
Yep its finaly been assembled and raced-my new OPTIMA. Ive sought parts for this car from all over and spent quite a bit of $$$ getting this car peiced together but all the hard work and patience has paid off. With a belt drive conversion being the...

Nice car Bormac, I really like the paint scheme. Its neat that you and Bugle still race the oldies and they are still winning races. Even though it tok you a long time ot get it built I bet it was sure worth the wait!!! Have fun with it :D
It seems like around 12 months ago I bought this car my good friend Paul (Treehugger) here on 10TALK.
While Paul did a good job of supplying me with a good start, the real work laid ahead of me. The car was stripped down and thoroughly cleaned with...

Sweet mate, very sweet. I had pink yokomo wheels on mine for a while, also just noticed your using my spur gear, does look nice on your car. By the way i forgot to mention I tried almost all holes on those towers, but ended up on roughly the same...
Hello guys, as much as I like my growing RC10 collection ( I now have 4 ) I am realy a huge Schumacher fan as a few of you may already know. Just thought I'd share with you my Topcat which is just about ready for a 2 hour vintage enduro that im set...

I'd love to have one of those. I think I found a clear body for that buggy. Just have to double check my source. All that would be left is finding a car to put it on. :lol: :lol:
My good buddy James offered me an Ultima Pro XL in appreciation for completely rebuilding a couple of his Schuey CATs for him. Unfortunately it wasn't selling when he put it up on ebay a few times and Im kinda glad it ended up with me after all. :D...
It's been a very long time since I owned a Javelin caged car and I was about due for another.
Yep, I picked this jem up off eBay and while it looks a little dusty the extra picks the seller sent me show this car to be in quite good condition....

Is Pargu still selling his wings?
BTW, what would be the best way to brighten up the cage? Both of Mine are a bit dull.
Keith :wink:
I think Pargu does still have the wings available. As far as brightening the cage, try some PlastX plastic...
