An observation about scale sizes....
I was noticing my friend's Losi 8ight and Losi Muggy next to each other on his table. Both are 1/8 scale. The chassis/drivetrain are all the same basic layout/design. Now I know the 8ight is a 1/8 buggy. The Muggy is a Truggy which is a cross between a 1/8 Monster Truck and Buggy. But when you get down to it the Muggy really looks more like it is a 1/7 buggy.

RE: An observation about scale sizes....
In reality the buggy is actually larger than its supposed to be. If you were to compare a full sized offroad truck against a full size buggy you'd see the huge size difference.
