My first buggy kit....Its a Ve8.

I love my LHS, I try using them as much as possible. They have tower gold pricing or something like that, plus they can pick up most of their orders from tower with a short drive no shipping involved, unless it is coming from their eastern distribution plant. I am a firm believer of buying local, if your LHS has decent people they may go out of their way to assist you, especially if their is a need of 1/8 scale parts for racing in the area. My LHS is based off a rock crawling website, but since we race a lot of electric 1/8 scale in the area they went out of their way to get a seller status with hyperion and other goodies for 1/8 brushless action.
