Yes they do all look a like except for the losi 8 . But TEBO could drive a shoe box with wheels & still win . The odonell name has a good reutation maybe thats why.

When was the last time Tebo had even win a 1/8 race? I see him winning 1/10 races but don't even think I have seen him win a 1/8 race this year.

Is that price for real.... I will stick w/my mbx-5, have had it for 3yrs. only broke 1 part so far. I could almost buy 2 buggies for that price...

Tower Hobbies has it listed at the same price.
It doesn't include tyres but not 100% sure if it includes wheels.

Exclusive Rapid Reaction rear suspension!

By moving the inner hinge pins away for the buggys center, we've created a suspension that improves overall stability, reduces weight and reacts faster during turns. And while it may only add up to a 1/10 of a second over the course of a race...just remember that races have been decided by far less...

Not every R/C company reacts so rapidly to customer requests, but O'Donnell does

Raced against an Odonell sponsored guy driving the Odonell Buggy and Truggy today. The buggy and truggy both look awesome. Lets just say he won today by multiple laps against the club racing crowd that normally attends our local races. Cool to see the proto buggy and truggy in person though. I wish I had a camera with me.

Looks like theyu should be nice.

I would rathe get a kyosho mp9 but i have heard that they are going to 800 bucks I hope they are not theo.....
