You could get into some problems with a name that is so close related to the Hyper, but I liked your use of the chinese characters.

RE: Creative minds required! New 1/8 buggy name.
Oh, I really cant go into much detail as of yet.
I can say that the components from the car come from both Taiwan and Japan, the engine will be a TOKI 'Team Infinity' and it will be assembled in China.
It's NOT made by smartech or any other those pseudo hobby brands.
It will be ready by mid May, we are just working on the Decal/Manual/Packaging, the usual OEM stuff.
It will be coming out in both Kit and RTR form. RTR initially then Kit later in the year.
Controller is an FM unit by Sanwa.......

How about Viper8, or cheeta, or Hipnotic, or Venom421 ( 421 would be 4-4wheel drive, 21-engine size ), or scorpion. And last but not least DoomeBuggy! hahaha

Try the HUNTER. So when you rename that Kyosho ripoff it wont be just numbers.

RE: Creative minds required! New 1/8 buggy name.
I will add some mixes that I liked that were suggested
Tetra MX
Tetra BX
or
Eclipsor
You have to think in your head and try to hear it as if it was real, like some guy going up to someone else and saying, "Hey, did you hear about the new Team infinity Eclipsor"
I have the feeling its going to be the OEM xterminator or H7.

RE: Creative minds required! New 1/8 buggy name.
it makes me laugh when you se the Bazooka touted as "Brother to the kyosho MP7.5" when in reality it has a totally different front end and the similaritys with the rest of the car are only visual & thats if you only take a quick glance
how about calling it a "shunter"
thats more in keeping with the previous suggestions
personally i still like "Corndog"

Whatever you come up with- hope it sells. Best of luck to ya. Because, and you should realize this. Those that are serious about 1.8th scale will always run the big names that are already there in the market place. Unless you get a serious marketing strategy and get a gangload of factory drivers together- your gonna be hard pressed to get some recognition. And remember, THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT! Whatever they want- you better give them- otherwise you might as well keep the car off the market and save the investors a slow, long painful loss.
