Any new buggies/trucks out there for Fall 2008
 

It doesn't feel like there has been a lot of new models released this year amoung the top manufacturers.

A few things by Traxxas, new 1/8 buggy by Hot Bodies and a few updates on some other models.

Has anyone seen anything really "new" come out of 2008, or know of some new releases we may see this fall?

Seems like 2007 was a much more interesting year for new releases.

Tamiya TRF 801x:

OK - replying to my own thread here....... :tongue:

The Caster Racing Fusion Ex-1 is interesting but it's not as interesting as a custom built BL conversion. I read somewhere that they will be making a truggy version as well.

I do like their design with the dual battery trays - looks like the buggy will have nice centerline CG and side-to-side balance.

Decent manual too:

aw trev you bum!
i just showed you that link, not even a minute ago! :no:

it was perfect timing!

Pics of the new MBX6 buggy is out at rctech forums.

Nice! That is cheaper than i thought it would be. Kyosho has a rep for being priced a little high.

anybody mention these yet

$849 is really a lot of money. That's $250 more than the Xray 808 buggy. Insane!

Unfortunately it is a sweet looking buggy. :lol:

You got a link for the Mugen buggy? I had heard that a few new truggies and buggies would be released come the early fall.

I like the brake setup on the Hyper 9. I could be convinced to try mech brakes with that buggy.

Yeah me too.

I agree w/you Vintage...that's a BIT TOO MUCH for a buggy IMO........ For the price they want for a new one, I could have bought 2 mbx-5 when they were on sale...

The TRF 801x looks even better than the 5t or the 8ight-t. Really looks like a solid build.
