Losi=8ight
AE= ?????

Hope this helps. reading your posts above it looks like you think the Losi 8ight is tied to the AE somehow when they are completely different companies.

I know, i was messin with him. but ill take mikeys advice and wait for the AE buggy and pick one up myself.

Or get the truggy....

When you're board you start doing strange things. Sometimes it's gluing all your old tires together, and sometimes stitching things together. Adam Drake was seen racing, what most of us thought at the time, a hybrid LST. It combined the suspension of the huge LST with the lower weight, and higher adjustability of a three differential buggy. From then on the "Muggy was born."

While not the first cross between the two (that's how we started to get the truggies we have today) it is one of the most significant releases of a converted monster truck to date. Capable of handing the track and the back yard attack, it's a truck of all trades.

Here's what the Muggy has to offer:

• Rugged LST2-inspired suspension
• Huge oil filled Mega-shocks for unmatched handling
• Proven high performance, low maintenance 1/8 buggy-style drivetrain
• JR XR2i computer-based radio system installed
• Dual metal-geared Z590 steering servos
• Losi “427” Hi-Performance engine with tuned exhaust system
• Losi Spin-Start Electric Starting System
• Performance-designed wing and durable wing mount
• Dual disk Brakes
• Tunable three differential drivetrain
• Aggressive body design pre-finished with stunning graphics
• Large 150cc quick fill fuel tank
• 1100MAH Ni-MH receiver battery pack and 110V charger

The Muggy brings together the key performance features, simplicity of design, and the ease of operation that the performance minded enthusiast is looking for. The ready-to-run Muggy and a growing selection of tuning parts will be available at hobby shops and racetracks in September.

Cool. Looks like you could spend 2 hrs breaking it in, and then competetively hit the track!

every mfg has gotta copy the bowties lol

They look like Inside Jobs or Evil Twins, to me. If we're talking about the Losi tires.

im talking about the ones on the muggy lol bowties all the way lol but ur right they do look a little different

bars in the middle..sq pins on the sides.

hmmm switch 2.0's

shame on you for even naming a competitor's product ... I'm calling Proline right now.

the wing looks cool.... thats about it.

More of a sedan wing than a truck wing. Looks like it will plow earth real good.
