mentat,
you must take my word on this. if you only race at the track you have to get a 1/8 buggy. it is like the ferrari of rc racing. truggies are fun but nowhere near as fast or agile on the track as the buggies. i raced truggies for a year and loved it. helped me learn to drive. then i got my 8 2.0 recently and the difference was night and day.
and like the other guy said i would get the 8b 2.0 for interchangable parts. i know it is fun to have a different kit but its better being able to always be running at least something if you break a part on one.
whether you get the 8ight or not the 1/8 buggy is a sure win especially for racing. lots of great buggies out there. Tekno just released their conversion kit for the mbx6. they have several other buggy kits too. if you wanted to do a total custom race buggy you could get the odonnel z01. those look sick. kyosho st r. anyway, the list goes on
for racing, monster trucks are kinda dumb. they are pure bashers. so if you only go to the track i dont know that i would be considering a monstertruck.
anyway, good luck with your choice.
