what engine are you runnin?

[jimgotnitro]

He mentioned that he wants a mugen (5t) or HB...So i suggested to him, the mugen truggy (mbx6t.

By all means, i would get the RC8T over all of those, because i love associated! :P

[gsadvanced]

get a Losi 8t 2.0 or a MBX6T if you have the money.

I thank that truggy has alot of potential. Hey look at the bright-side, that truggy is under the same construction as the d8 which took the 2008 ifmar world championship. the only change is that it has bigger wheel's, taller shock tower's, truck body, wider arms and a low gear ratio for more power. Remeber that hotbodies d8 beat a lot of losi, associated,ofna,kyosho,and so on.

[Smorz33]

hot bodies is the best, obviously..

[TheGobabygo]

Sometime you don't alway's have to buy some expensive to be competive, You just have to know what you want to do for that day of racing. Remember that car hara was racing was the lease expensive of the bunch and he was still able to bring home the gold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hpiguy1]

[iamcyberpunk68]

[Chonchachencho]

[mgtissweet]

how is this truggy? i dont know weather to get the mbx 5T or the D8T

[jimgotnitro]

Wait until the MBX6T comes out....CAD images have been released so can't be that far away.

[ViB33]

why not Asso RC8T, Jammin X2 or Hobao Hyper st?

[stevensons]

There's always debates on what truck you should get. But you can easily be competitive with any of the major brands. Whether that be Losi, Mugen, Xray, Associated, Hot Bodies, Jammin, etc. What should decided the truck you want really is parts support and what your local hobbies store carries. In my opinion Losi and Mugen seem to have the top truggies at the moment, with Hot Bodies and Associated a close second but thats me. I will be honest with you though, I think the you should avoid Hyper ST

[Smorz33]

get the d8t

[iamcyberpunk68]

@mgtissweet there all great altho the batt box in the dt8 is tiny,
