The NEW Schumacher Mi4LP is the next ultimate high performance electric touring car. Designed by Schumacher’s world championship winning engineering team, led by Phil Booth and developed by 5 time British touring car champion Chris Grainger and the Schumacher Race Team.

Touring cars are changing and once again the Schumacher design team have hit the mark with the Mi4LP. With the universal usage of Lipo battery technology and now new lower weight limits massive consideration has to be taken with left to right weight balance. With the introduction of the new narrow Lipo chassis, adjustable motor position and ability to flip the transmission the Mi4LP can be balanced perfectly whatever your radio choice.

The Mi4LP is fast!

The Mi4LP retains many of the awesome features that have dominated the domestic touring car scene over the last season. With the addition of new items developed by the BRCA Constructors Cup Championship winning team and BRCA 2009 National Champion Chris Grainger.
