Wow Thank you so much for sharing this. The photos alone are worth it but having all the race reports together is a bonus. Lots of coverage from Japanese magazines

What is awesome? the above link.

I finally know where my Masami 2wd replica was run. Time to update thread.

HELP! We need a Translator! Or even 10 because of the amount of information.

Let's move it to scans btw.

I'm treating it like a playboy mag..... Just looking at the pictures.

THANK YOU

Jirka

PS. I will be spending next few weeks just looking those articles, just magnificent collection of race coverages etc.

Mother-of-God!!! Must learn Japanese!

Or google translate!

That certainly helps with some of it but I want the scanned documents translated!

Guess you need to grab Rossetta stone and get to work on it

Wow! Thats some serious RC pron right there. Those early hand made ABC cars are incredible! So over engineered but so beautiful.

M. Hirosaka and his father now have a youtube channel. They show their cars and have even re-built the re-released Schumacher Cat.

Incredible Website, very cool!! Legend!!!

I really enjoyed the Masami re-re video series. Masaki saving the bags from each kit

I am obviously biased as a Schumacher fan, but Masami's 1st World Championship stands out to me as his greatest achievement, or at least the coolest. A guy and his dad show up at the IFMAR World's and win it! Incredible. That is not to diminish his other wins, but his subsequent championships were achieved with the full weight of the "empire" behind him.

Masami's first win is sort of a Bob Glidden, Bill Elliott, Dan Gurney type of thing.
