Harper returns to racing with Schumacher

Schumacher Racing has announced that former IFMAR Worlds, EFRA European podium finisher, and former BRCA Champion Elliott Harper is returning to the team after a 3-year break from racing.  Harper stepped away from racing in 2020 but the love that is RC is still in the blood and the British driver has decided to return to competition with his former team.  Commenting on the announcement Harper said, “I’m really excited to be re-joining the Schumacher team.  I retired from racing after a 16-year career in 2020 to spend more time on life outside the RC world.  However, and like many others, I couldn’t stay away from the sport I loved!  I enjoyed some great years working with Schumacher in the past between 2015 and 2018, and I’m looking forward to seeing what the future holds with our new partnership.  I’ll primarily be racing in the UK, focussing on the BRCA Nationals and Essex Winter Series (EWS).  I can’t wait to see you all again at the track soon – do pop over for a chat and say ‘hi’!”  Alongside the Mi8 HGT he will use Hobbywing electronics and Intellect batteries to power his ride and his first race back will be the final BRCA National at Colchester on September 16/17.
