Rckcrwlr is getting the itch to have an On-Road 8 - 12.06.2011, 12:15 AM

I guess my question is this....

I would love to get a GT2 and convert it to BL.

I have a Losi 8ight 1.0 that is converted. Is there a way to make that On-Road?

I know that they say that the GT2 has a longer chassis. Will the GT1 bodies fit on a standard WB Losi?

GT1 bodies and many other "standard" length 1/8 onroad bodies will fit the Losi. If you want to run GT2 bodies you could use a truggy chassis, check the specs though as the 2.0 is longer than the 1.0 and I'm not sure which you'd need. As for making it better for onroad use, you should start by limiting suspension travel. Adjusting the downtravel limiters built into the a-arms will lower the car and obviously limit downtravel. You might also want to add some fuel tubing to the shock shafts, between the ends and the shock body, to limit up travel a little bit. But you'd only do that if you have alot of up travel left after the chassis is bottomed out.

Thanks.

I think I am going to go that direction.

I did see the Ofna GT One Electric is pretty nice.

If I buy one it will have to be the C6R Kyosho. So I may tool on the Losi and see where it goes.

Thanks
