+1. The 810 is basically a baby 1/8 buggy based off the Ten T platform (which is a 1/10 truggy). It doesn't meet ROAR weight requirements, has an 87cc tank vs 125cc in the true 1/8 buggies, and doesn't have the same availability of hop-ups that the 8ight rtr has. Also, since it is the same platform as the Ten T, it essentially has 1/10 drivetrain parts, most noticibly the driveshafts.

I have a Ten T and converted it to an 810. It's a blast for bashing and for mucking around on the track. But like Token said, it's not nearly in the same league as the 8ight. Smart choice going with the 8ight 2.0 buggy instead.
