IFMAR off road worlds - 09.18.2008, 09:31 AM

So who has been watching any of the racing on LiveRC of the 1/8 off road worlds .

Apart from the first three days with the rain problems , today seems to be getting alot better .
I'm currently watching ( it's 11.30 pm over here ) on LiveRC but have to get some sleep for work in 6 hours .

I realy like the track with the changes in surface and different obstacles , wish they would build a track like that down here but we follow US trends and our tracks are supercross style / blue groove.

I haven't watched any video but I have seen pictures of the track. I really like it too. I am not really a fan of the huge jumps we have for 8th scale over here.

I bought the special subscription to the video feed and it's amazing. Worth every penny. SO cool to watch the best in the world deal with that crazy mud track! And now the drive-line is hard and slick. Gotta be versatile. They are amazing to watch. The word that comes to mind watching them is relentless. They never let up. When racing is on, it's all the way, all the time.

Back to the wide tires today since the track has dried out .

The narrow tires were used in the mud and they cut and chopped them through the centre to get them that narrow , similar to what we have been doing in rc crawling.

No, I didn't really mind who won aslong as HB or AE weren't the winning buggy

HB's RULES!!!!!

That right there proves, the price of every other buggy out there is stupid, and there is no reason to buy a 900 dollar K car, or really anything else!

Hara RULES!

i wouldnt take it that far, the D8 is a great buggy, and i agree that all the other buggies are over priced, but come on Hara is just an amazing driver he could win under any brand.

Exactly, drive makes the car. So why does a more expensive car make you faster? If you suck, then buying a expensive car wont change that. Im not saying thats anyone here, just in general...

theres a guy on a local forum who insists xray is the only way to win. anything else is outdated or heavy or weak or something else. it pisses me off alot, as every thread he usually comments, saying something like "an xray would have been better" or " ud go faster with an 808" bla bla bla... im sure its a great car but dissing others thats just hilarious. im glad the d8 won. where there any hypers there? had a browse through the photos and didnt see any.
