As far as which is better. I only have experience with the Losi. Just got one last saturday as a matter a fact. Once you learn how to setup the 8ight chassis wise and drive it with a smooth hand, it's a very fast buggy. Its also very durable as I have yet to see anyone break anything on one.

Im sure the RC8 is very fast also, I would just be slightly concerned with durability.
