Rock on Swift, thanks for the pics, and the input...I really appreciate it!
I have spent the last few weeks going back and forth, reading, looking at pics, watching video, and any other info/data I could get on both trucks.
I am 99.99999% sure I am going to get the XRAY XT8 2009 Spec truggy, as well as the XRAY 808'10 buggy, and do like magman did and turn the buggy into an onroad car (I have been wanting one badly). It will have crazy 6S power, and be setup to run on smooth concrete, asphalt, pavement, and even dirt (clay) sometimes. I will most likely swap the buggy's chassis and center-drives out for the longer truggy chassis and center-drives for the added length to bring the buggy into a more scale look and run the more scale "long-wheelbase" bodies like the Corvette C6 body. I was going to get a 1/7 Ofna DM-1 Pro and convert it to brushless, but I really don't like the chassis/shock setup/look that much. I can convert the XRAY 808'10 shock towers and shocks to shorter versions to fit under an onroad body with no problems.
Have any of you owned, converted, or run one of the Ofna DM-1 Series cars, especially the 1/7 DM-1 Pro? Would it be smarter to go with it instead of converting a standard off-road buggy to onroad? I really don't like the DM-1, but sometimes it's about what works best, not what looks best.
Thanks again for everyone's help and input, and any help and input you give in the future, it really means a lot to me!
