I am looking to get either a 808 or a RC8 and put Mike's kit in it. I do not race if that makes a difference. However I have a mbx-5 and love it's durability..
I am looking for opinions on both..as far as durability, ease of maintenance, etc...
Thanks all

I really like the looks of the RCM kit for the RC8, though he may have one for the 808 soon, you never know. I would pick the RC8 just because of the RCM kit. You may also want to consider what you can get parts for locally.
If durability is a key item for you, go with the Xray. Its hands down the best built and toughest buggy I have seen. The AE is a nice buggy, and Mikes kit is top nothch, but the AE platic is not nearly as tough as the Xray from what I have seen.
1 vote for Xray here...
I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...
