About the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0
Nitro or Electric?
You decide! Losi built this buggy to give users the choice of how they want to build their performance buggy. The center differential mount comes in either a motor mount or brake mounting version. For electric, an updated shell for added durability and better power transfer. Nitro drivers will find better brake cams allowing for a more consistent brake feel during extended runs. The best part of either setup is the parts to build either an electric or nitro buggy come in the box!
Chassis & Bulkheads
The chassis is formed from a piece of 7075 3mm aluminum and braced by durable side guards. The chassis features a cutout for the flywheel, engine mount, and motor mount. Building off the chassis are the front and rear bulkheads. These bulkheads feature quick access differentials to make maintenance and repairs a breeze. Every point of this chassis is designed around versatility and adaptability.
Suspension
Having a chassis that can be electric or nitro is one thing, having a performance buggy is another. Losi made a buggy that does both! The suspension geometry has been heavily updated to make the buggy more nimble and easier to drive. A wider front pivot, narrower rear pivot, updated hubs, longer suspension arms, more suspension mounting points, and more allow for fine tuning and setup changes that allow you to drive this car hard into the corner and blast down the straightaways.
