Default My New 8IGHT!

And it's NOT nitro!

Just finished building the beast today, I must say it's a very very nice kit! Losi did a great job with this one, I have a feeling it won't be the last 8IGHT to join our fleet. We already have one 8IGHT-T and that thing rocks, I'm so excited for the buggy! Pics are off my phone, I'm taking better ones tomorrow and I might reveal my setup...

WOO!
