Looks like I'm in the 1/8th Buggy game now too.. went to the local track with my Synergy teammate to check him out.. he let me drive a 1/10, 1/8, & a 1/5 scale(freak'n huge!).. was fun. So.. I picked up the Futaba 4PLS radio, Tekin 1900kv Gen2 motor & RX8 Gen2 ESC, ordered some DE wheels, PL tires, servo, & a Team Associated RC8BE3.1E(which is preorder, think it's a new model.. due next month). Still gotta order packs.. not sure if I'll actually enter races.. if I do I'll have to get a transponder.. I'm absolutely clueless!!!! But looking forward to some fun.

Good luck on the new habit. I've heard it's hard to quit
You should think about racing Clay. Your very good with helis, quads and now why not 4 wheels too
. Just like Derek mention to me once or twice before, it's all in good fun

Hey there Clay. It's a sleeper. Looks like crap but under the hood she's a runner
Looks like it's going to be a little screamer to tame.

Hehehehe.. I played in the mud! It was a ton of fun.. however.. the clean up prohibits me from ever doing it again! Popped a solder joint too.. already another thing to fix!

Did you play in the mud or did the mud play with you
Good lord Clay, I never even got my 4.3 savage 4WD truck that dirty
At least your paint job looks alot better then it did

Yeah, I use my compressor for blowing out stuff all the time. It comes handy for my helis, quads... no less, all the house hold items too
