I have owned a XB8TQ, XB8EC, 2 XT8s, and 2 808s. Before the 808 was released I wanted somethig new and bought the 8ight. I built it (definitely not fun to build like an Xray), ran it for 10 minutes, and then sold it and got an 808.
I don't deny that Losi did some awesome stuff in the buggy market, but I do not feel that any one manufacturer has changed the buggy scene.
