Hey guys, I plan on getting the 8ight-T to race with for next season, and wanted to know how you guys would compare it to with other truggies, and what are good engine/pipe combos for it for a medium sized track? I have the buggy, but I REALLY want the truggy. Thanks

Alright, so.. I'll get the RTR (want the Spektrum, and the Teal Mach 427 ain't that bad either)

What else besides Tini hinge pins, the milled chasis and shock towers, would I need to bump it up to "Pro specs"

Thanks

shock caps and if you want it the exactly the same as the race roller you will need to get all the tini pins and the wheel hexes
