Schumacher FT8 1:10 Competition FWD Touring Car

Schumacher Racing has released details of its new FT8 front wheel drive 1:10 competition touring car.  The FT8 has been developed by British manufacturer’s world class engineering team to make a fast and great handling front wheel drive touring car.  With a low centre of gravity, light weight, and fine attention to detail, the FT8 is a pleasure to build, maintain, and to drive.  The FT8 contains all the features and adjustments you need from a high end front wheel drive to take you to the top of the podium.  The car in prototype form has achieved some excellent results including BRCA FWD National Win, 2nd’s and 3rd’s in the hands of Andy Murray, Aaron Rose and Jamie Hickin and the Essex Winter Series overall championship win thanks to Shane Chipolina.
