O'Donnell Buggy Due 1st August
 
Well I think this is the most expensive buggy on the market ($649.99 making it more than Kyosho :surprised: ) and probably doesn't come with wheels or tyres. Anyone looking at getting one?

Doesn't look like anything special to me. I'll stick with my SH ZMXB-8 buggy, it's LOADED with innovative features, at $200 less.

NNNaaaa get an 808.. you will be very happy with it, I still have not broke mine and I’ve tried, it light and extremely well belt.

Just a thought..

Lol, I have yet to break my buggy as well. I haven't driven it as roughly as I used to drive other RCs, guess that's a benefit of having driven RC for so long. And to think, I've got about $90 worth of spares for it...

I'll be interested in taking that 808 for a spin sometime at OCRC!

Anytime Sir, I'm looking forward to driving yours next Sunday, :yes: wait to you try my GEVO on 8s, that will blow your mind..:party::party:

Sign me up for two of them!!! If Tebo drives it then I have to have it!!! I have a feeling he drives it cause they pay him...

Rely on brand name to sell. I hope people are not blind, Kyosho did this a lot imho. I see nothing special on this car.
Best bang for buck will be hyper 9, Hobao is making good and sturdy car for years.
And 808 is a killer machine. You paid the price but the quality is there ...

James acctually he has been hooked up with odonell for years. He helped develop the car & other odonell products.

True, I mainly said that due to the fact that most of the 1/8 buggies are the same, and will all most likely perform very similar when driven by an exceptional driver like tebo. I am sure he has set the odonnell buggy up the way he likes it, and it will work well for him. I have no idea why it is so expensive, most likely cause it is new...

i thought the same thing. they all look pretty similiar except for small things that should not raise the price hundreds of dollars.
