I would rather go with a lower KV motor and run higher voltage than a faster motor and have to run good batteries

My Mini 8ight has been great about it, nothing has worn out yet except for the foams inside the tires. There have been broken parts, but no parts that have worn out and I probably have about 50-60hrs of the buggy so far and I've only owned it since January.

Anyone with a Hyper 10TT or a Hyper 10SCT have recommendations? I am not a racer and am not beholden to any class. Classes mean little to me.

where are you racing buffalo grove local ? Can't help you with 1/10th stuff, too small for my ballz

Your 1/8th stuff wouldn't be welcome at the track I visit most often. Mine isn't.

"Too Big", "Too Dangerous" are the phrases most people talk about. A 1/8th vehicle driven by a proven driver is safer than a Slash VXL driven by an idiot.

Oddly enough, despite its crazy size, when I was able to bring my Truggy to the track it was one of the fastest things on the course even paired down to 3S on a MMM 2200kv setup. It was just so smooth and easy to control. Some of the corners were tight requiring full steering lock and braking to get it to rotate but I miss having it on that track.
