What is next for 1/8th scale racing? Lets chat

Needless to say, were not seeing anything new in the buggy area because apparently, the RC companys don't see much money in it which in the end is the goal of all businessess, to make a profit while taking advantage of supply and demand

Buggys are all but useless IMO unless your a racer or just love driving really fast in even dirt areas with smalls jumps which = boring IMO. No buggy I've seen could take the punishment a MT can during heavy bashing and thats what alot of people love to do with RC cars, bash and screw around. SC exploded because it was a new, cheap alternative to everything else for racing but now, even thats starting to fade away because of costs to keep up with the other racers.

In this economy, Mommy and daddy can't or won't splurge $500+ on little Billys new RC hobby that may or may not last long, especially racing against veterans with bigger pocket books
