The buggies will handle different terrain and jumping a good bit better then the short course trucks, not trying to take anything away from them as they are great trucks, the 1/8th scale buggies are just better vehicles.
Any of the top brand 8th scale buggies will have their little issues but as a whole will be good quality, durable and its very hard to beat 8th scale in the performance department. At least in the racing world lol.
So that sounds like RC8be(comes with tires?) or Ve8(does HPI make the Ve8 or is it Chinese/no tires?)then? Ve8 is $100 less than the RC8be. Huge difference in quality/durability/performance between the two? What's up with the Mugen or XRAY? HPI isn't made in China?
