Torrance Deguzman; of the Associated's Reaseach & Development team posted this about the forthcoming RC8 buggy.
"Now that the cat's out of the bag, i'll confirm some details. it uses Thunder Tiger diffs from the ST-1 truggy (not the S3). They work perfectly so we figured we'd use them to save some tooling costs, savings which gets passed on to the customer. other TT parts used are just some small items like throttle/brake linkages, EVERYTHING else is all new, all AE.
Drivetrain layout is the time proven design. no, the engine won't sit right on the centerline of the chassis but the important thing is that the center of gravity does which is what matters most. who cares if the engine is in the middle but pushes the CG off to the side. the suspension uses c-hubs with upper and lower arms up front.
The body and wing is different from what's out on the market, but not bizarre looking like some that i've seen. the thing sits really low.
lastly, it's metric.
no, we didn't re-invent the wheel, we just optimize it - AE style."
Doesn't sound like the new AE buggy has much too offer IMO if all they can claim is a "new wing and it's metric". Obviously they realize they are no Losi 8 and trying to do damage control even before the buggy is released.
They tested it against all the other buggys on the market and didn't quit working on it until it was better than all of them including the losi, funny you didnt seem like the kinda person that had to have the mainstream thing. Who cares if its a crazy change as long as it performs and coming from AE it will do just that.
who's the traveling pro that got beat?

He was on coreys heels most the race... They swapped 1st and 2nd a few times but corey really laid it down even after gettin royaly screwed by a marshall that cost him atleast 5 seconds...
All in all it was a great race to watch!
well was able to extend my werks and my proline contract till 08 today
What did you work out with the werks? They were wanting you to run the tires right?
ya but he agreed to renew my current deal, so basically i didnt ask for more
So no tires from them. Think you will still atleast try them out?
ive already tried them. they are good, but proline is proline
so you got any pics of this pile of junk mike?
lol no losi pics sorry kevin
guess the AE car wont be at CRCRC first race at the Nitro challenge in february out in AZ so i hear i dunno who to believe these days hahah
