At a few tracks last year I kind of tried to get the car to not jump so high and far. Weird huh? Some of the jumps just weren't big enough to warrant the excellent jumping skills of the 8. But on other parts of those tracks the car was perfect to me.

Quick question
Where we race the most popular tire is the Panther Gator
Which are the equivalent in Losi tires?
Thanks

I have roasted the center differential. It got hot and spun the gear and shafts through the housing. Horizon and Amain do not have the beefed up Losi cups. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to resolve this issue. You may want to get spindles. I landed wrong and broke where the steering arm is. I heard that sportwerks may have a diff cup that will work with the 8ight.

How long have you been running your current center diff for? Just get a regular one for now if you need to get it together for racing. The stock one's should last a while.

the sportwerks diff cup will work. i really dont know if they are any better or not.
i havent gotten any of the new cups at my shop yet, the backorder page says 3/21 right now to arrive at horizon.

Does anyone know where I can find current setups by sponsored drivers for the 8ight?..the Losi website setup sheet link is very sparing! Thanks.

The setups on Losi's website are really all the setups people run. www.rcsetups.com has a much bigger selection but they are mostly slight variations of the ones you'll find on Losi's site.

Here is a link to my current setup. It is a bit different from THE team guys. It is fairly easy for me to drive. To me it has really good steering and easy to push.
