What is Schumacher RC Racing (racing-cars.com)?

Updated

racing-cars.com is the official website of Schumacher RC Racing, a manufacturer of radio-controlled (R/C) cars and RC accessories. The site covers two main vehicle categories — On Road and Off Road — and serves as both a product catalog for Schumacher's own cars and spares, and a distribution point for a wider range of RC products. If you are looking for a specific Schumacher model, a replacement part, or general RC hardware, this is the manufacturer's own storefront rather than a third-party retailer.

What the site offers

The catalog is organized around vehicle type and generation, which matters because Schumacher has produced many successive models and older cars still need parts.

Products and new releases

  • A "New Products" section lists additions by month (for example, September 2026, August 2026, and earlier months).
  • This is the fastest way to see current releases before browsing the full catalog.

Spares Spares are grouped by category and model, so you can match a part to the exact car you own:

  • 1/10th 2WD buggy — Cougar series (Cougar 2 Works, Cougar LD3, Cougar Classic, Cougar LD2, Cougar Laydown, TOP CAT, and older models back to the Cougar 95T and Cougar 2000)
  • 1/10th 4WD buggy — CAT series (CAT 2000 Classic, CAT PB, CAT L1R Pro, CAT L1 EVO, CAT L1, CAT XLS Masami, and earlier CAT models)
  • 1/10th Touring — Mi series (Mi10, Vibe FT, FT9, Mi9, FT8, Mi8, Mission FT, Mi7, Mi6evo, and older)
  • 1/12th, Stock Cars, Bikes, Boats, and other categories
  • Nitro Off Road and Nitro On Road ranges (NANDA, Manic, Riot, Rascal, Fusion, Menace, and others)
  • Crawler and Mini Touring Car (MTC) sections

Accessories

  • Hardware: adhesives, balls & bearings, cleaners, e-clips, grease & lube, nuts, pins, screws, tape & velcro, washers & spacers, weights
  • Nitro and pinion gears
  • Pit equipment: kit bags, car stands, LiPo bags & boxes, parts trays, pit lamps, setup boards, storage boxes, towels & mats, tyre truer

Who it is for

  • Existing Schumacher owners — the spares structure lets you find parts by model name and generation, including discontinued cars.
  • New buyers — the Products and New Products sections show the current lineup across On Road and Off Road.
  • RC hobbyists generally — the accessories and hardware sections cover consumables and pit gear that apply beyond Schumacher cars.

Practical notes before you use it

  • The site requires JavaScript to function fully; the page itself notes that JavaScript must be enabled in your browser for full functionality. If menus or the catalog do not load, that is the first thing to check.
  • There are Service Centre Login and Account Login options, and a search field with a product counter. Account and service access exist as separate entry points, so expect some areas to sit behind a login.
  • The catalog mixes current and legacy models in the same navigation. When ordering spares, confirm the exact model and generation (for example, Cougar LD3 vs. Cougar LD2) rather than relying on the series name alone.
