    Nitro
    Nitro and Electric Ready

    All of the parts needed to run either nitro or electric are included in one box.

     

    Rear
    Rear Adjustable Hubs

    The rear hubs on the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have an updated pin location as well as are now height adjustable in more increments for fine-tuning and maximum rear grip

     

    Square
    Square Insert Pills and Narrower Rear Pivots

    All pivot mounts have been updated to use square pills to offer more tunability. The rear pivots are now narrowed to improve the front to rear roll of the car and provide more rear grip in all situations and better-balanced front to rear.

     

    7075
    7075 3mm Aluminium Chassis

    The chassis is new to the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 and is made from 7075 3mm thick aluminium and hard anodized for the best wear possible. The chassis is also milled out deeper to allow for more flex and the lightest 1/8 chassis to date.

     

    Centre
    Centre Diff Setup

    The centre diff mount is a new moulded composite piece offering more rigidity and the new integrated mount for the throttle servo is lighter. The E buggy side will be handled using an updated center diff setup from the 8XT.

     

    Brake
    Brake Setup

    The brake cams have been updated and the brakes are now freer and provide better and more consistent braking force and feel.

     

    Front
    Front and Rear Shock Tower

    The rear shock tower works with the new rear gearbox and pivots. The front shock tower is shorter to decrease the front chassis roll as well as lower the CG. Both have been lightened, new camber link mounting positions, as well as shock mounting positions to provide the tunability and durability racers, are looking for.

     

    Better
    Better Diff Access

    The front and rear diff case have been altered to allow easier access to the differentials without removing the bulkheads from the vehicle. The rear diff case has been updated to allow for the new C and D pivot blocks.

     

    Cab-Forward
    Cab-Forward Style Body

    A cab-forward design helps with overall downforce, which improves steering and overall stability. The body comes precut for ease of mounting.

     

    Front
    Front Spindles

    The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 spindles have been updated to use 3mm screws for the steering arm for increased reliability.

     

    Front
    Front and Rear Universals

    The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 includes universals for the front and rear which are shorter and lighter which makes the car smoother in existing turns and aids in the flow in bumpy track conditions.

     

    Aluminium
    Aluminium Wheel Hexes

    The wheel hexes in the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have been optimized for use with this updated platform. They are hard-anodized aluminium for durability and weight savings.

     

    Radio
    Radio Tray

    The steering servo has been moved in and forward to provide a better balance to the car. For the E version, the updated steering servo mount has an integrated ESC mount to get the ESC forward in the car.

     

    Steering
    Steering Rack

    The steering rack allows more Ackerman adjustments and an improved servo saver to eliminate bellcrank bind during high loads. Also, the rear mounting points moved in and back allowing the drag link to sway back for a more linear steering feel.

     

    Wing
    Wing Mount

    8IGHT-X/E 2.0 uses the wing mount from the 8IGHT-X Truggy that offers different heights and positions for ultimate traction control.

     

    Optimized
    Optimized Shocks

    The 8IGHT-X shocks are optimized and lightened to decrease the centre of gravity and lower the weight of the car and will include 3.5mm shock shafts. The shock pistons have been altered to allow more blow-by to aid in bump handling.

     

    Insert/Truss
    Insert/Truss Suspension Arms

    Long front and rear arms provide great bump handling and stability. The arms are stronger using a truss-style base as well as upper stiffener plates to adjust flex for full tuning abilities. Bushings are used for the inner hinge pin area to provide a worry-free, smooth function at all times.

     

    Gear
    Gear Differential

    All three gear differentials now include V2 HD diff cases with composite pin holders, V2 O rings, lightened sun gears, and F/R high traction outdrives. Which provides more grip and a consistent feel throughout the entyre run along with quicker acceleration and longer run times.

     

    Suspension
    Suspension Geometry

    The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 next-generation suspension geometry has further been updated making a car that is fast, nimble, and even easier to drive. This includes a myriad of updates including, a wider front pivot with less scrub radius, narrower rear pivot, and updated hub offset, longer suspension arms, and more suspension mounting locations.

     

    Adjustable
    Adjustable Caster Blocks

    17.5 deg caster blocks are included that allow the height of the spindle to be adjusted up and down for high-speed stability.

     

    Sway
    Sway Bar System

    The sway bar system has collars that eliminate side to side play to provide a more consistent suspension package.

     

    Chassis
    Chassis Side Guards

    The chassis side guards have been updated to allow for more room as well as moved back 3mm to provide for tyre expansion. The E-Buggy side now has the battery tray moulded into the side guard for a lower centre of gravity and lighter weight.

     

    Bleeder
    Bleeder Shock Caps

    Machined aluminium shock caps with threaded bleeder holes for easy and consistent bleeding of oil. Bladders and Emulsion seals are included for tuning to your track conditions and driving style.
