Its a durable brute too, and its very easy to tune. You will love the fact that parts are EVERYWHERE as well and cheaper than the majority. AE has been the "gold standard" for 20 plus years. Things aren't gonna change anytime soon either.

The cool thing about the RC8, and Associated, is that things don't become outdated every year or 2. They focus on improving aspects of the car and doing revisions to specific parts that can potentially be improved upon, so if you have an older model, new parts from new revisions will allow you to update the car as you go. Its a good choice that won't be regretted. Cool thing too with the RC8, is you can convert it for relatively cheap money into an SC8 or RC8T if you ever get the itch.

Take the money saved and invest back into good servos and an engine.
