I would be running outdoors on a medium size track.
Also, those of you who have focused on running a light setup, what advantages or disadvantages have you observed? Is it worth my time trying to make a sub 7 lb buggy? Thanks in advance for any help with this, guys.
i ran the sct410 in a 1/8 buggy configuration on 2s pro4 4000 and it was a bit underpowered. you can always try the pro4hd 1850 with a 3300mah 4s battery. protek makes a nice hard case one. that's the setup i run in my revo 3.3 tekno conversion. i've tried it in my sct410 in sct configuration and it's got lots of power.
theoretically i think it'd be advantageous to run a lighter buggy. as long as you change the setup to compensate it should run great. i think that's why some racing organizations have min weights for 1/8.
