Default What should I get Losi XXL or 8ight-t 2.0 rtr?

Ok. So the new 8ight-t 2.0 rtr comes out in like a week or so. Should I get that or the Losi XXL rtr? I already have the 8ight-t rtr and I love it! I have been upgrading the heck out of it. But, its time to get a new toy for the summer.

IMO if you already have the 8ight-t rtr and have done some upgrades I would go with the XXL so you would have something different.

Yeah. I am pretty stuck. I love my Losi 8ight-t. But, really want to upgrade to the 8ight-t 2.0 rtr. The price was the thing holding me back. But, the new rtr is such a great deal! The XXl looks pretty slick too. I kinda like the truggies better, since I live in suburbs/city enviroment.

Sell you 8T, and get both. Then sell the DX3S to somebody.

The main question is whether you are going to race. if you are, 8ight T 2.0. Those are the truggies to beat in 09. But if you are just bashing, get the XXL.

I mostly just bash. I think I am going to buy the 8ight-t 2.0 rtr. My friend wants to buy my old 8ight-t. Guess I'll just use that cash and buy the XXL afterwards.

Why does everybody always go for the "T" version and not just the buggy version?

Buggies just aren't cool.


( Kidding.. Well, kind of.. For five years I've put off buggies. Never liked them - they just don't look as cool as trucks.. Nor, btw, do they have the clearance of MT's or even truggies for the kinds of bashing most people do.. But I've just now started investing in my RC8 - big bores, new body, Badlands, etc... I originally bought it used, to be mostly just an engine break-in platform and part-spender for my RC8T.. But I'm getting more and more into it.. It's fun to drive on a track... )

When I was a kid, I was all about the Losi buggies with the electric motors with the brushes. It was like 20 years ago. Since I got my new truggie, I love the fact it can go where buggies can't go. Both are pretty sweet. It just comes down to a matter of personal preference.
