Brian, thanks for the words of encouragement.
I think that I did just tweak my chassis. It's odd in that it still tracks straight. I haven't had to adjust anything to compensate. Maybe someone else out there with an 8ight can put a straight edge to theirs and see if the center is bowed up a tiny bit.
As for my comparison of the 8ight T to the XB8, I meant it. To me, the XB8 is the easiest driving buggy out there. I had plenty of experience with the 8ight buggy, and the truggy doesn't drive anything like it. Icouldn't drive the buggy to save my life, but I love the truck.
If I did tweak the chassis on that jump, I'm not to worried about it. The motor mount is fine. Nothing moved. Didn't strip any gears or anything. Besides, I'm not the first to have bent a chassis on that jump. To be honest, it's just plain stupid. The guy that was working the jump, when the track was reconfigured, had it in his head that he wanted BIG air going over it. The problem is that with the way it is angled, there isn't much room for error.
