does anyone make an electric conversion kit for 1/8th buggies, truggies?
like the title says, does anyone know if there are any companies that are making a generic electic/brushless conversion that will fit in any 1/8th buggy or truggy? it would be a nice alternative to those that arn't all that comfortable with nitro but still want to get into the 1/8th scene....if it exists.
i know there is at least one company (fine design) that is offering a rtr version of an 1/8th buggy (a 1/8th storm i think) and a rtr truggy conversion (i think it's a hot bodies truck conversion)......but, these are pretty pricey $$ and you are limited to the buggy/truggy that they offer....and that may or may not be the buggy/truggy that i want to run. are there any other companys making a rtr electric/brushless 1/8th.....and is there anyone making a generic conversion that anyone could put in a buggy/truggy of their own choice?

If anyone says fine design, I will find you and punch you in the face.
Electric conversions are BUILT not BOUGHT but there are some fly by night companies that sell them....

Forget Fine Design, that's way overpriced. Once they have a little competition, the prices will come down. You can build your own alot cheaper, and get some pretty good results...
