the big differences:with most adjustments being as close as possible.

1. 8ight is lighter, imo it jumps better
2. the 8ight corners like it's on rails, the lx-1 has a bit of understeer.
3. the 8ight has threaded shocks, and imo they are a better shock overall.
4. the aluminum on the 8ight is a much higher quality
5. the 8ight imo is much more stable on bumpy tracks.


that being said, that's the same driver driving 2 different cars. i've seen my buddies' lx-one-e walk all over 8ights and RC8's at the track, but he's been racing since he could walk. most 1/8 buggies are over-engineered nowadays, and if you want something to be competitive, the lx-one will be. .it's just not as high a quality as the other buggies.

Thank you for your reply! This sounds good to me, as I'm not a big racer (mostly basher), but sometimes I just want to race with other people and then I only have 2WD vehicles or a 4WD MT, which isn't fair for me lol.

I'll have to finish my E-LST, and my Marder, after that I'll buy a LX-one probably. Many thanks for your reply Dwight!
