Schumacher Menace GTR 1/8 Street Racer

[Mayhem]

The Menace GTR combines all the great features of the Menace off-road truck with the handling of an 1/8 GTR Racer. Designed by the Schumacher race team to be the ultimate "street" racer, the Menace GTR is supposed to handle all the twists and turns with ease. With a claimed 70 mph top speed and great traction as a result of its 4WD, the Menace GTR gets good traction even on slippery asphalt. It features a powerful 2.1 hp engine and Schumacher's "E-Start" system that eliminates expensive starter boxes and unreliable pull-starters. The Menace GTR starts easily with an inexpensive cordless drill.

• Claimed speeds over 70 mph

• Reliable "E-start" system
• Pre-painted and cut body shell
• 34 precision ball bearings included

ugh well ... cool i guess..... i just hope they dont discontinue the fusion and stop making parts.. that would suck

Fusion is 1/10. They won't discontinue for a while ... only upgrade. That new 1/8 is just an onroad based on the menace.Don't forget, it's also using the same engine and drive train as the fusion21. Bigger, Badder ...

 

[Reptile]

so technically the fusion will still be slightly faster because its a smaller car with the same sized engine correct?

 

[nitrohead3000]

It may handle better since it is wider

 

[Diver6127]

that is true, wider stance is a plus
