Associated RC8 Worlds Edition
Anyone heard any good rumours about a "Worlds Edition" car?
Must be something coming out soon with the big bores and some of the mods which have been incorporated into the truggy.

I really hope so. I would really like to see them put out a kit with the new stuff included. I plan to get a new buggy after Xmas for the new year and the thought of having to buy the car then throw the shocks in the trash to replace them with big bores is kinda a turn off especially when you can get the WC car for under $400 or a new Mugen for under $600 and they already have big bores.

Doesn't seem like a good marketing precedent to offer a "Worlds" model that didn't win the Worlds, or even make the podium.

Cain- Theres a couple different things such as the steering rack mod and moving the battery. Theres also a couple things that you can do to make the car easier to work on but thats about it.

Blame the engine or glowplug...the chassis doesn't cause that.
RM and RC started 1-2 in the final - fastest 2 times of the semis - but you weren't there, only looking at pics online and reading results. That is a great way to judge a product.

And a flame out is the only reason for that - Maifield led the majority of the laps of the main.

I was there, I know. And I'm not knocking the buggy, driver, mechanic, or the team. I'm guessing some sort of marketing and advertising plan was ready to be put in place.
It's also my guess it was pulled since it wouldn't make much sense to place an ad for your new worlds ride that included the phrase, "we coulda been a contenda, but a freakin' flameout cost us ... we was robbed I tell ya"
I think AE's marketing practice on Worlds vehicles has been after winning one, not after losing one. If you know what I mean
