The reason why I left losi this year (8t 1.0 last season) was b/c of the build quality and therefore terrible durability - slop for days after just a few races). Has this been fixed? Thanks guys.
I just raced my 8ight T 2.0 for the first time yesterday and came from an RC8T that I raced since late September. I didn't have alot of complaints with the RC8T but it definitely developed more slop and wear than average, but it never broke in during the time I raced it. As for handling, there's no comparison between the new Losi truggy and the RC8T. The 2.0 will out handle the Associated truggy hands down. The 2.0 floats through the rough sections like nothing I've ever had and it carries corner speed better than anything I've seen. To say that I'm happy with my 2.o would be an understatement.
