Which 1/8 buggy to convert for racing? -

I’m looking for the 1/8 buggy that is best for racing after being converted to electric. The top buggies all seem very competitive in nitro form, but converting to electric can throw the handling off some.
The buggies I am looking at are:
Associated RC8
Losi Eight
Jammin X1X-CR
Ofna Hyper 8.5
I like the AE and Losi for local parts availability and the AE is the most updated buggy.
I like the Jammin because they can be had cheap on Ebay and at one time was thought to be the best.
I like the Ofna because I’ve seen side by side battery trays for it that would be convenient to use my existing 10th scale race packs.
I know there are some other nice buggies out there like the Mugen, Kyosho and Cen. I don’t know much about any of those models, but I would consider any comments on them.
Thanks,
Scott
