The stock set-up is the very best place to start. Otherwise you will not have a thorougly tested baseline from which to try different things, or to come back to. The stock set-up was tested for many months by many drivers in many different track conditions, worldwide. It provides the most neutral feel. Please begin there.

If you later find that the buggy does not do what you want at certain points on the track, or in certain conditions, then ask here for recommended changes. The change needed may be very minor and close to stock.

For instance, if the car becomes a little inconsistent while cornering, it may not be suspension geometry that needs adjustment. After punishing 4 T8 buggies myself over the last 18 months, I've noticed that the servo saver spring could use another coil to prevent unecessary ss action. We are working towards upgrading the spring to accomodate today's stronger steering servos.

They actually handle awhole better. I drove the RC8B.2 and the MBX6 and they actually handle worse than the Team C, And the Team C flies so much more level in the air and you dont have to steer and gas and brake it in the air to level her out compare to other buggys. And they are awesome for there truning how hard they hook in the corners, so you can ride the pipe. Plus I cant find another car that can ride on top of the jumps in the whoop section's.

For us it seems the 14deg C-hubs only work better when the track is very bumpy or rutted, like in the vids that ykc posted.

However, for smoother track surfaces the 10deg C-hubs are more precise and offer more turn-in off-power. The stock 12deg is therefore the best compromise for all conditions.

US tracks have become more smooth over the last couple of years, to accomodate the newer classes such as 1/10th SC trucks.

Default T8 Buggy Wins the Piedmont Series Championship

I am proud to announce that me and the T8 won last Saturday the final event and the points championship for the Piedmont Series in N. Carolina USA.

I used the stock set-up on a large outdoor clay track, that had a variety of surface conditions, from loose in some areas to grippy in others. I qualified 2nd, but took the lead in the first lap. The race was then on between P1 (HotBodies D8) and P2 (me). But after a back and forth battle for 20 minutes, I crossed the finish line about 5-6 seconds ahead.

The car was incredible, and I cannot think of anything to change on it.

Thanks Team C for a very fast and durable buggy.

If you guys have not seen the announcement, Team C has brought on seasoned truggy racer Ian Haley for the International Team. Ian is a legendary truggy racer, and has obviously approved the new T8T platform.

Welcome Ian!
