better service, losi's CS is bad

i used to race the hot bodies lightning 2 and it was a great buggy so im sure the D8 is too, but keep in mind the losi buggys bigest draw back is that everyone else has them, but that means cheep parts and lots of hop-ups.

there never is much after market support for hot bodies products

i now bash my lightning 2 and race the 8ight

ok i will try to get the losi (if i still can ) they might sell out. if it does i will get the d8.
also in the long run i think i will run 12s 2500 in this thing. since it has mech brakes? i will not need a car esc (or will i) hv guys share your knowlage...
i dont know what to get first. the buggy or the dx3s

For that price, I'll get the Losi too.

I was looking at the specs of the Losi and Losi 2.0 and it seems that the chassis was only stretched out for 2mm.

Losi 2.0

Best buggy for the money is clearly D8. very forgiving and easy to drive
Then i would say MBX6 , XB808, 8ight 2.0 and then the rest as i dont have experience with RC8, X2 :) thats for racing
for bashing of course you cant beat the price of the old 8ight or SH buggy
