When the original 8IGHT-E hit the market, it turned the electric 1/8 Buggy market on its lid with a unique chassis layout and innovative design.
The 8IGHT X-E takes it to the next level with a brand new - ground up design that once again sets the bar for all 1/8th scale Electric Buggies with a more traditional style chassis layout that has a neutral driving feel, improved jumping capabilities and better bump absorption.
The 8IGHT X-E features major updates to the suspension package, overall geometry and a new drivetrain layout. Add in the new easy access differentials, adjustable caster blocks, new steering rack, new sway bar system and you have an E-Buggy designed to be easier to drive, faster and accepted worldwide.
Note – White wheels are only used on the photo sample. Yellow wheels are included in the kit. No tires included.
