No problem TDC57.

I wanted to thank everyone for the advice and the offers also. I was looking into the xb8 to see what it was like. Not having any experience with any of the buggies it tooks some time to find out about the differernt makes and model. Sure a lot of them out there. I ended up buying a Losi Eight roller from a RCM member. It showed up at the right time and well I think everyone has heard of the Losi Eight so I didn't have much research to do. I visited one of the LHS over the weekend. None of them had any 1/8 buggies in stock except one Cen Matrix. But at one of the shops that has an indoor track a guy had the new D8 there. He seems to like it a lot. Got rid of his eight and got it. He said it's taking a little time to get use to it but really likes it. Looks like a nice buggy. And honestly that was the first time I've really actually looked at a buggy very close. I'm looking forward to the package showing up.

Thanks again you all.... It's a Pacific Northwest thing "You all"

Have a great week Sir..
Yeah, you think I can trust him? Looking forward to getting it. Will have to try my one handed video/driving out again soon.

Mike.L if your asking about the rcpilot seller on e-bay. I never bought from him but may try some of the parts he has listed. He responds to email pretty fast. All though the one request for a picture of the bottom of a buggy got a response that it was unavailable at the moment. The auction was close to being over so I never followed up on the picture.

Hey, Gee:
In your research, what did you find out about Kyosho buggies? There's one over here that I might go pick up tonight. He's asking 100 bucks (supposedly a 777 inferno).
