I dont think the market for E-truggy is very strong. I love them and have 2 but I either have to run with nitro truggy or hope and pray enough show up wich is not very often. The track I used to use the most just closed and we could on any given day have 5-10 e truggys or we could run with e buggy. but the other tracks dont have that much turn out but thats in Georgia I dont know how other regions are.
Jason, what kinda changes did they make?

Some of the top drivers drove the car after the race and said it was super easy to drive. I'm pretty sure his second main time was good enough for 4th in the a mains.

Billy said he had a hard time adjusting to the power the motors had since it was so different from nitro. He was either over or under jumping things. Basically he said he needs more practice. Most of the guys racing have a good 2WD finger and he lost that quite some time ago.

XRAY kits have the nicest & highest quality parts and the material used on the drivetrain components last forever. They have had their fair share of bearing issues that have been overcome in the 11' version, but these changes are not on the 808e version. I'm not saying they are the best handling car out there, but the workmanship and quality are the best.

You should easily be able to fit two 3S softcase lipos in the battery trays. Hyperion 3S 3300 lipos are actually smaller than 2S ROAR standard hardcase lipos. You will probably not be able to fit a 3S hardcase lipo. But, there's never been any need for hardcase lipos in escale.
