Oh yea I forgot that I put on the Losi lexan rear arm "mud flaps"...lol!

The one thing I highly recommend to all 808 owners is switching out the sway bars; they are way too stiff in my opinion. I went with 2.2 front and 2.4 rear and it feels awesome now.

Enjoy it as it is a really fun buggy to drive!

What's up Pumpkinfish (like the name!).
Yea I know, I know I don’t need all of those hop-ups parts, like many guys don’t need the blue pill either but they get it!..

As luck would have it the track that I'm running it at is a indoor clay track so see some of that bling will actually help.. . I actually haven’t decided to take apart my perfectly good running / driving buggy “to weigh it down & pretty it up” but if do that get that wild hair up my a$$ them I'm at least prepared for it..

I am going to order the referenced sway bars above (thanks for the tip ) and I'm going with one size heavy spring (light blue??) the reason being the bottom kept hitting the ground every time it landed off any size jump. We’ll see..

Thanks for the comments PF and have a great one..

Shaun.


Nothing!.. Hahahahaaa..
