So guys is the TQ sx8 the same as the team C. Looking to possibly pick one up and where would one buy parts?

The TQ SX8 is the same as the Team-C T8. As of now there are only a handful of places to get parts. Team-C directly, Misfithobbies.com, CK Hobby or you might still be able to find some leftover TQ inventory online.

Hey guys, ordered me a T8 and T8E last week and was curious what lipo people are using in their nitro? Also is the front box too small for a pack? Thanks

D&B there a Machine shop, Ironicly he doesnt have a "Site"
(they Do Commercial Machine work,no walk in stuff)
he started out with Short Course Bodies cause he was "Tired" of spending $45.00+ on a SC truck body and would sometimes "Break" in a weekend of racing...???
he does a little racing on the side.....

he thought well i have all the Machinging stuff? so he "Made" a Thermal Former off of "Designs" we made for our stuff for Making "Signs"
so for a bit he was just mkaing them for Himself,but word got around...LOL and so he started selling them for 20.00
and now he does Buggy bodies,and starting on the truggies....
i used to run the Losi's so was using the ones he made.
and since i was not "Sponsored by Losi" i really "LIKED" the truggy body? but couldnt JUSTIFY the $46.00 price tag...so i used the Proline Bulldog's but i wasnt real thrilled with them? there nice! myself i just did not like how they looked with my "Scheme"??
till he came out with his...and since i run E-Truggy and Nitro
i do not have to "Cover the Hole" for the E-truck or try and Search the Internet trying to find the electric version....
one body one price....
they do not have a Fancy Package? or a Antena Tube? or Sticker sheet? but there the Same Lexan everone else uses...
his are a Tad Narrower? so on the truggy looks kinda Cool....!!
but drop me a email at [email protected] and i'll send over the Inqueries to him.....
and being overseas in the Great Down Under i am sure he'll try and work something out........

and if you get any "I'll toss in some Team C stickers,

well "Myself" for the 2 cars i had a chance to "Borrow"
used one from "HobbyKing" was a bit Sung...and also used one Similar to the Losi one? i forgot the brand name? i think "ProTech"?

and for the other i used some Promatch x2 2S packs
with a Balast "Weight" on the side with the "Single Pack"



i'll try and make it....!!! sounds like a plan been missing REV !!
been jetsetting back and forth so time has been hard....
had Borrowed a e-car so went to OCRC last Sunday and this passing sunday(some Casual Indoor).....was in the 70's so wanted to get out of the "Heat"....LOL

pretty sharp looking truggy dude !

well i have already gotten some emails on "What Car" i was driving
last 2 weeks at a local indoor track.....???
some "Thought was my Losi" but i just had my old Body on it.
was a T8E.....some had thought i was running some new "Modified Chassis" for a Losi...??
no just the standard "Stock" T8E buggy...
so no wasnt a modified Nitro Drone....
but anyone wanting to see my review check out the "Electric Section" soon.....

Thanks blade. I am in need of more specific battery box dimensions though so I can order the proper one today. Also is the front box too small for a reciever pack? Thanks.

Got the lipo deal handled!

Awesome....
Oh, and if you could let everyone here know the ones you "Used"
will help others too....
there are so many ones out there on the market nowdays...???

there is some other ones i use as well for "Club Racing"
there from Hobby King there about 6.50 a 2S pack bout the size of the "Losi ones" but there about $41.00 less..!!
a 2100mah
so there is another option as well.....
they dont last as long....??? i had one last about 9 months of Hard "Club Racing" and another only last about 7 months?
but at $6.50 kinda hard to beat.....
bigger races i do use other ones as well as these....
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...ver_Pack_.html


almost forgot..Quick note on the Front half of tray...the Size i would have to guess for a "Example" is similar to the Losi and Associated in "Size".....a "Li-Po" by today's standards probally will not fit?
or at least the One's i have and Use do not fit....
but that does not mean other ones will not....
i am not at the shop so i can not Measure them just now...
if someone could that has one and post here be great...

and if anyone is going to be Near Temecula California stop on by
we'll be out there with the other Big Guns for the upcomming
"Sidewinder Explosion" (turning into a Mini-Worlds)
and may be shooting some vids,if anyone is interested in seeing some vids let me know......

well i was kinda Bored, and since we make graphics of sorts(Commercial)
thought what the heck?? and toss some out there...???
so here is an example of a Team C "Sticker" Vinyl Die-Cut as sometimes there called...
if anyone would "Like a Pair" let me know...."First 50"
and if you have a color in mind? let me know if i have it in "Scrap" i'll make in the colors you would like...
did i mention there "FREE"....????
but a Catch....you have to "Send Me" a
"Self Addressed Stamped Envelope".....so not really "FREE-Free"
you be out an Envelope,some stamps and some time putting Pen to Paper to write out that O'l Address
but still pretty Inexpensive in a day where a shop will charge 4.00 for 2 tiny nuts and a screw.....
