New Lid and Shoes....8T 1.0.
 
Do you guys think the wing is sitting too low. Its as low as I could possibly mount the body.

That's pretty sick. I love the new 8T body. From this angle the wing looks fine, but if it's lower than the rear edge of the body I would raise it up at least to that level.

How come you didn't dye the rims black ? All black would have looked killer.


The wing looks good and so does the rest of the truck

Originally I was going to run Black wheels and white body...but this was my last minute decision. The wheels have yet to be glued and all I am waiting for now is my balance plug adapters for the Neu Lipos.

The wing is like a hair under the height of the body...any suggestions on raising it a smidge...or lowering the body more.

That set up does look pretty sweet the more I look at it

What's_nitro? 06.23.2009 08:46 PM

Oh, the wing isn't adjustable? You could fab an Al bracket to raise it up a bit I guess. otherwise I'd just leave it if it's that close.

I would dye the rims. White rims look like crap once you run them a few times. After a while they are covered in dirt and look like sh!t.

Sorry, still not a fan of the 2.0 body. Honestly after running a losi mini late-model for 2 seasons I'm not a fan of Losi either!

Desert Rc 06.23.2009 10:08 PM

Well I know there are lovers and non-fans of Losi...I have been both before. I am mixing it up by building a SC8-E to counter this rig. I am really just building to break up the monotony at work. My Rc's can always put a smile back on. But I will be hitting the track on my off days when I have time just for fun.

So I have gathered that the 2.0 shock tower in the rear sits lower then the 1.0. Can anyone tell me if the shocks are the same length?

I've been wondering how the badlands MT tires compare to truggy tires in size. They look good.

DesertRC is that the stock losi 8ight 2.0 body or a proline 8ight 2.0 body?
