Default RE: new buggy pics


ORIGINAL: hakmazter

We are using as many parts as possible to make life easier for our hobby store customers. I do not want them to have $$$ in extra inventory, so the goal was to use as many parts that we could off the nitro. We also want it to look like any other Caster also. We are also trying to help develop the electric class and there are many places that are just accepting the idea of combining electric with nitro. This will be hard enough with the performance differences, let alone, if it visually looked different from other 1/8 scale designs and looked more like a 1/10 scale. I'll get pics with a body as soon as I get them in.

Is that in response to my question about it being so wide? A narrow 8 scale doesn't look like a 10 scale... It just looks better IMO. Look at the 8ight or the Hyper 9, the new trend is narrow.. It would be silly for caster to design a buggy and make it wide on purpose.
