Hi guys,

I currently have a RC8Te (pics / vids) which has been nothing but good for me.

But now I got a change to buy two MBX6T nitro rollers which both have 10 races on it. Both maintained by team drivers so the cars are well taken care off. A friend of mine (Byte) also wanted a truggy so this is a great way to buy the same car and share parts if something would break.

The Q: is the MBX6T really that much better than the RC8Te to rectify the change?
Car €250 / $300
E-conversion : €130 / $160
Total = €380 / $460
Until now I mostly bash my cars but I’m getting tires of that and want to get into racing.

My RC8Te has the following upgrades : alu threaded shocks, front CF tower, alu chassis braces, alu topplate. I’m guessing I can sell the RC8Te for €300 / $370 incl. the upgrades and spares (2 diffs, 1 diff pinion, chassis braces and the parts replaced; topplate / front shocktower / plastic shocks / chassis braces). So I would have to add money and loose spares.

What do you experts think?
