Thanks Paul, good to see the unicorn with pics. Saved you're pics and zoomed up close, still has that nasty front cvd to center dif angle. Looks like the same angle as my 2.0. I'm just not seeing anything worth a major $ investment to make this worthwhile imo.

I like an honest review...

The quality of parts and inclusion of parts that were hop-ups on the previous model make this kit worth the money so don’t bother to convert if you are an established 8IGHT-E 2.0 owner.

There is an angle at the rear, it will be less at the front

Remember the same song when 3.0 hit the market.
Everybody was complaining about the resemblance with the 2.0... Imo its great that they dont change it all up, if it pushes the 3.0 foreward the same way it went from 2.0 to 3.0 its going to be a great car!

Exactly what I told a friend of mine. Until we see the final release notes we won't know all that's been done. Losi brakes are awesome but they should have made the transition to metal discs. They also should have put the time in and went with universals. No one would say a thing If those things were changed.

Hopefully the rumors of longer rear arms is true.

Hey guys - this was leaked and should not be out yet. Be patient and in due time you'll get all of the details and info from us regarding the vehicle. There are more updates than you can see in these photos, and they do make a huge improvement.

BTW - I wouldn't make an opinion on something by looking at 3 poor photos... didn't your mom teach you not to read a book by the cover?

Frank, let's be real here, you think any of these guys read books? (I'm kidding...)

Car looks badass, and I am excited for it...Is it metric or standard?
