Well, picked up an 8T 2.0 on Thursday, put my electronics, motor, etc in it on Friday, and ran it at a Big charity race on Saturday box stock, didn't even change the tires till round 3 of qualifying. With only 2 tanks in it before qualifying started, I have to say I am impressed with the truggy. Runs really well. Not overlly impressed with the stock shock setup, even outside of the shock end coming off, but little playing around with the shock setup will fix that. I think Losi hit the nail on the head with this one.......as long as it is more durable in the diffs than the 1.0 was.........
