I saw some pro drivers here at the local track running what I assume is the rc8t. All I could see were carbon fiber towers and the associated stickers on it...

My thread back on page 4... I do not think so.

Well guys the time is coming for the ROAR Truck Nats and the RCX show. Not sure which one will give us a sneak peak at the Truggy but it is coming.

Come on AE lets get that bad boy on the track.

Hey Guys,

I have been on the boards all weekend and no pics of the RC8T. AE is doing a great job of keeping this Truggy under wraps. I am thinking the Truggy will be out for the summer????

I saw it and it looked awesome. I really liked when it was up on two wheels you mentioned a truggy version that everyone is talking about on here do you have any information you can share?

Hey Guys,

Neo-Buggy had this to say about the release of the RC8T. I am not sure how much of it is true

After several months since the actual release of the RC8, we have yet to see anything on the truggy front from Associated. According to inside sources, the design has been ready for several months and a production batch was produced recently, however incorrect materials had been used, delaying the project, thus missing the Truck Nats this weekend. We have been unable to guage a release date, but educated guesswork points to sometime during the summer.
We hear the AE truggy will naturally carry many features from its successful sibling the RC8, but Big Bore shocks will be present, a longer chassis and smaller gearing on the clutch..


I am still hoping for a June release


TTYL

Well the Nats are going on this weekend and I am not sure if the AE truggy is there. I read that The King and Maifield were testing theirs a few weeks back... stay tuned.....

The truggy is in pre-production which means that the final fit, finish, and durability testing of the parts is not completed by AE engineering staff. AE does not want to race a truck that is anything but a full representation of the production vehicle. Thus, you will not see the truggy at the ROAR Truck Nats this weekend.
