CORR body on 8ight buggy? - 10.04.2008, 10:37 AM

Anyone tried this yet... just looking for the best body mounts, well easiest to install anyway. I have a traxxas slash body that looks to be a perfect fit over my 8ight buggy. I pretty much only want to do it so I can show up with a few buds and kick their slayer & slash butts.. this 8ight handles about 1000x better :P

The SC8 looks to just have mounts attached to the shock tower. Maybe you could put mounts on your spare shock mounts

Come to think of it, this is something I might want to try myself.


Check out my custom converted 8ight:
Sub 7lb, lowest CG of any 1/8 buggy

Hehe.. slash with 1/8 wheels and body.. nice, well actually.. junk

PS not even 4wd.. but I bet it handles better than the slash does.. those are aweful trucks.

oops, Just realised I stuffed up. That was the wrong video. If you go to the ultimate traxxas site shown in the vid there's a 1/8th conversion to a corr truck. That was corr truck to 1/8th - sorry.

Still, goes hard as.
