Racket is not Scheme (anymore). Racket is a Lisp-1 with lots of different features and "batteries included" stdlib. It's a "descendant of Scheme".

Worth taking a look into definitely, but it doesn't have STM and "persistent data structures" which jfaucett seems to want. It does have solid concurrency and parallelism primitives, though.
