I'm not one to buy something just because it looks good, but I WILL avoid buying something because it's ugly...

and boy howdy, that thing is ugly! Just MHO. I don't care how fast it is...it could be the best buggy on earth, for $100 for the pro level kit...I wouldn't buy it just because of the aesthetics.

Go the RC8!

Agreed. What a pain to remove the servo arm. I bet that part was designed on a Friday afternoon around 4:50 PM.

Nice CNC parts, but threaded shocks? Always sets alarm bells off for me on a buggy.

i talked to tebo at the rc pro seiries race in p hill mo. last weekend and he showed me the buggy it does look solid and it performed very well he finished 2nd behind taylor james he would have caught james but got hung in laped traffic. all tebo said when i asked about a realaese date was hopefuly soon but it did look full production. the track was really rough and blown out in the pro amain and it seemed to go over the rough stuff pretty smooth. and dont knock that AE. buggy it to looks real solid. dont hold youre breath for the odonnell buggy. its gonna be awhile.

OCM looks like it stole from Xray and Mugen. I like creativity, not stolen ideas.

I think it looks pretty nice too. As for it looking like a Mugen or X-ray, I don't really know what people expect when a new buggy is released. I mean there is only so much freedom. They all look similar. Unless your involved in 1/8th's you will struggle to tell them apart. I know most of my friends could not tell my 777 from my friends Mugen.
