Custom 1/8th on-road?

[d3lap]

My 8t being a truggy is a bit longer then a buggy, so it seems i would have to either, buy a Buggy chassis or make one.. You MRX came out really nice tho. Even with foamies and 4wd its still uncontrollable? I wonder how my 1518 would handle the road? Would really need to be re geared. Maybe my losi 2100kv would be better suited?

I should have stated it this way...in an inexperienced rc'r yes it would be uncontrollable. Believe me, it took me about 4 sets of batteries before I really felt comfortable letting it loose lap after lap. It is so quick and fast that if you lose your concentration for a split sec....bad things happen.

honestly I never really figured my 1800kv would last on the road, especially on 6s, however, it probably had 25+ sets of batts through it with no issues.

You could do one out of a 8T. Just find a set of shocks to lower truggy, change diff oil, gearing and you should be ok. Changeling part would be a body
