Schumacher Daytona. Won the 1/10th scale Roar Fuel Nats in 1990 or so in the hands of Mike Swauger. Very light, very fast. You seem to be missing the motor mount, engine, spur assembly (may have been a 2 speed?). Always wanted one, never had the place or opportunity to run one though. -Jeff

Thanks a lot. You seem the first person knowing about this car. :)
I really thought if this could be homemade.

It was a good attemp at a burgeoning class (1/10 scale 235mm 2wd nitro). But soon came better teams with better cars (serpent, ect.), and the class gave way to 4wd, so the development was scrapped. -Jeff

The mighty Daytona.... what you got when Schumacher took the engine and gearbox from their Nitro 10 truck, and mated it to an RC10L front end (not a copy, but proper 10L parts), and a big flat chassis - first one I saw was fibreglass, but the standard one was carbon fibre.... and my one is a thick alloy job.

If you search Daytona here on 10Talk, you should find my project Daytona.... still not finished, but that's how all my Schuey nitros are at the moment. if you need some parts, let me know, I may have some....

This isn´t my car but I was asked what brand/type this car is.
When the name Daytona appeared something did come on my mind again.
But I think this is one of the not very well known cars of Schumacher.
