Schumacher Cougar LD3S Racing Buggy
The LD3 is Schumacher's enhanced 1/10th 2WD racing buggy, already a proven winner in numerous national and international races, even earning a World Championship Podium finish. This upgraded model excels in terms of durability, tuneability, weight reduction, and speed. With three distinct chassis specifications available, the LD3 conquers all types of tracks and conditions.
The Schumacher Cougar LD3S is tailored to meet the demands of stock class racing, featuring specialized design elements that make it an ideal choice for racers seeking high performance in these particular conditions. Boasting a 'Laydown' transmission and lightweight components, the LD3S is optimized to excel in lower-powered stock class racing, where precision and agility are paramount. With its carbon-filled transmission housings, slipper lockout assembly featuring an alloy layshaft and 71t spur, and a 2.5mm carbon fiber chassis with recesses, the LD3S enhances its suitability for stock class racing. Additionally, it incorporates a carbon fiber motor plate and the lightweight JConcepts S2 Cougar LD3 Body, contributing to its overall performance and lightweight design.
A combination of class-leading front suspension geometry, lightweight steel CVD driveshafts, an easy-access battery fitting system, updated shock tower geometry to lower CG and improve suspension feel, and meticulous attention to design details make the LD3Ss a standout choice for both experienced and novice racers. Whether you're striving for better lap times or aiming to dominate the competition, the LD3S is a top-notch 2WD buggy you can count on.

Must have upgrades are the brass pivot block U8212 and the alloy front link mount U8638. I’ve run TLR for the past five years and there’s no going back now - can’t wait for my ST2.
