Two reasons...

1) That's all I have experience with so I can't comment on higher level competition.

2) I'm not fast enough yet to compete on a higher level.

I've been running my C3 Persuaders for a long while now. They have held up great and have softened up really nice with the regular use of traction compound. They are right up there with the best...

Are you sure it's your shock setup that's the problem? There's lots of other things you can tune for rougher tracks. Usually you want to run some more droop, a little more ride height, and your...

I will have to agree on the ACE/AE DS1015 as well as the DS1313. I've used both and they have never let me down.

Does the FTW RC8 body fit on the 8.2 ok? Also I think it's made for nitro. Will the batteries fit ok under the lid?

Usually only a couple packs and it should be broken in. Mine took about 2-3 races and it was good to go.

Has anyone sent in an ESC for repair that wasn't under warranty to Falkon Sekido? I've got a V2.1 that I ended up smoking some how and I bought it second hand. I want to send it in, but if the...

Is it a brand new kit? If it is, it's probably a bit tight due to the gears being new and binding a little. What you can do is back off the diff housing screws and run it for a pack or 2. After...

Funny that it's still winning championships though. Honestly any of the major buggies are capable. It's a lot more the driver than any one car.

See my signature to see what I run in my 8.2e. HIGHLY recommended. If you're racing indoors it's a great setup. If you're running outdoors you might want to go a little higher KV on the motor, for...

Agreed with the above poster. I've ran mine with the Castle 2650, Castle 2200, and now the HW 1800. Out of all three the HW is BY FAR the best setup I've had. Anything over 2000kv is too much for...

The new diff outdrives are a running change with the 8.2e. All the new kits (from what I've seen) have come with the old style different length outdrives and the new equal length ones. Just use the...

The Punnisher body that comes with the kit is the biggest pile of crap body I've ever owned. It lasted one race before cracking. Now after about 4-5 race days it's basically unusable. I don't know...

Those connectors are awesome. I've not seen them before. Too bad my 4274 doesn't have solder tabs like that. Boo!

I really like the JC wing myself. It's been one of the most durable 8th scale wings I've ever used. I don't really like the two tier wings because it seems they always break right at the joints...

If you just straight soldered it, it should hold up. How did you manage to break it in the first place though? Must have been something that hit it pretty good.

The 8.2e can be a hard buggy to handle if it's not set up right. Mind you, I do agree that it handles better than the 8Be did. It seems like the 8.2e rear end is more planted and it's easier to...
