Official Schumacher USA Closing

We broke the news last week about Schumacher USA Closing it’s doors. Today the official announcement came down the pipe:

“Schumacher Racing have announced that their USA office will close at the end of February 2010, after 20 years in Tampa, Florida.However this is by no means the end of Schumacher’s presence in USA.

Schumacher’s biggest dealers in North America have committed to supporting the change and will be buying products directly from the UK head office. This means that the full product range of cars, parts and accessories will continue to be available at major hobby stores.

Schumacher are offering reasonable prices and a UPS express 2 day delivery service from UK to USA.
The Core brand of RC accessories will also be supplied in the same way
Schumacher have some exciting new releases planned, such as the new CougarSV 2wd buggy and look like becoming a stronger force at USA tracks.

We would like to thank the Schumacher USA staff of Shawn Palmer, Adam Bailey, and Diane Kozolowski for all the hard work they have put in over the last few years and wish them well for the future.”
