I was figuring you guys would suggest that. Seems to be the ticket. It's either that or the Xray 808, but save for parts availability I'm probably going to be getting the mugen.

808 will be march/april. If I can get Mugen sooner I might. Odonnel...IDK...Prolly won't be getting parts at LH. I have a really hard time making up my mind and I want the best thing I can get. I have an aggressive driving style, Looking for something that can compliment that.

I think the rc8 takes "agressive" driving fairly well...

It looks like a nice buggy, seems to have breakage issues though. but they got thunder-tiger plastic comin so we'll see. Any Im taking ANY input anyone wants to give me.

basically I want something that i'm not going to be "dissapointed" in :P

I would go with the Mugen. It's proven and tons of parts and support. My next choice would be tho Odonnels. But you don't know how that will fair yet. Even if it's great it might not take if there isn't the support. I think it will be a hot ticket though.

Odonnel looks like any other buggy to me, def will NOT be a choice.

Don't meant to rain on anyones parade.

So we're down to RC8 and Mugen.
