Exclamation The CAT is back!

Oh my, it's been almost 20 years since my last Schuey CAT, but this car could bring me back to off road racing—even this crap hard pack clay we have in the States.

It's so boring. It's like racing on... astroturf.


I grew up on loose dirt REAL off road tracks that didn't have cartoonish out-of-proportion supercross jumps and polished surfaces that needed rubber slicks. To me, that's not off road, that's lazy track owners and marketing hype.

I know it's what everyone likes here, but to me, it's not much fun. I'd much rather race on a TT-style loose dirt track. We only get those tracks outdoors here, and now they are all MASSIVE for 1/8th buggies. Blech.



Anyway, think there is any chance that this car is capable of handling a LiPo 6-cell pack with the 3-belt system?

THE CELL CONFIGURATION IS RUMOURED TO BE 4+2 SO DONT THINK YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FIT LIPOS

I wouldn't rush into making too many assumptions.

Id say there are more 4wd cars out at the moment with more to be released in the coming months, in 2wd there is only 3 cars at the moment and the D2 and the S2 on the way. If its a good product it will sell and schuey know they will sell cars just because of their reputation

Well seems the word coming out of the Toy fair is a May release. I can't offer any more info on this as i haven't asked the question!!

As for when a car is likely to be seen running in public, again not sure on that one either!!

So unfortunately i'm not a lot of help to you on this one !
