Look in [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_2842313/tm.htm]Info about XR8/80[/link] thread for all the information you could ever want about the car. IMO, it's a great car and I will be getting one soon. But read up

Do you think the Power Racing cars can not be competitive? Not flaming you but I am curious as to why people bash this new car. I'm new to the field but I have seen a couple of excellent reviews of the PRP cars. I would be willing to bet that more people would be interested in this car if it cost double. It's like when people dismiss the Chevy Corvette because it's not as expensive/exclusive as a Porsche or Ferrari. Even though at the 'Burg, the only vehicle that was faster then the Z06 ($85,000) was the Porsche Carrera GT ($450,000). More expensive, exotic does not automatically equal better.
Also, for people that are 1/8 scale racers, they should be encouraging RC companies to do more of what PRP is doing. The more people are introduced to the F1 of RC, the stronger the sport will be.
