He now runs d8t and d8 and he is happy with the hb rides along with me and another guy. We average about 3 d8's, 2/3 mugens, 2/3 xrays and the d8 is always up there and the mugen and xrays guys are fast at our track.



cool yea at my track i seen, 2 hb truggys and they looked really smooth on a rough track and i dint see them break anything ethier.

Note this was first practice so driver errors are common this is just to let you see how it does. Its 100% stock other than servo horn.

Driver is running a werks b6 with werks pipe, spektrum dx2.0, and jr servos 9100 steering and 8711 throttle.

im just thinking if i can get this, hb truggy for cheaper and from what im hearing the plastics dont wear to bad than why not than.
the HB truggy is great box stock, i have one and won a BUNCH of races with it and the only upgrade is new bearings and aluminum servo horn.

sounds good to me yea i replaced, my steering arm to a alum one on my losi i think every kit should just include the alum horn, i mean most people do replace them and never use them.

when i get though i think, im going to get the big bore shocks since i do race on a rough track .

youll have to burn the HB servo horn. and the D8T comes with big bores....

but if you need a good setup for rough track on it send me a PM. mine works fantastic in rough stiff. i also hope for a rough track/ late main
