I got hold one at the hobby shop today and wow. The quality of parts is amazing. It rolls super smooth, steering assembly is butter. Looks like it's gunna be a killer machine, and to boot it feels very light even Ready to go. Plus the sway bar design is killer, Mike knows what I'm talking about.

I could loan you a great Go Tech 5 port if you wanna come to The Rockpile Sunday.
Official RC8 thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 09-28-2007
thanks anyway bruce, i wont have alot of other stuff going on anyway
Al the front end is pretty beefed up if u look at it in person, arms are super thick, the tower is 4mm and has alot of meat where it is connected as well. my only gripe really is that the front bumper has kinda a loose fit but i dont think it will be a problem

hay al u may be making fun now but when me and mike start to kick your butt with these ae cars will see what u think.............just kidding but i think this car is going to be killer indoors...
Official RC8 thread - allan42r - 09-29-2007
had to go down to the shop today and check one out and your right the aarms are really beefy but the outer hinge pins, cast hubs, steering rack look a little weak. but what really got me was the plastic upper deck plate that the bell cranks sit under. but i did like the brakes and the way the linkage for the front and rear brakes are on top of the center diff plate. and the fuel tank is nice and wide for a lower cg with a built in splash gaurd. cant wait to see the car run.

hi al
Official RC8 thread - allan42r - 09-29-2007
i know you lol .not making fun of the car, the losi brought people into nitro and this car with the ae name on it will bring alot more into our hobby
Official RC8 thread - allan42r - 09-29-2007
sup ken john and i are gonna run next weekend, should be indoor with a new layout. you gonna be ready with that new toy to show us how its done?
Official RC8 thread - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 09-29-2007
all those good things u mentioned were on the TTR, see it was a pimp ride! Cast knuckles blow, i ripped on kyosho for having them and ill rip on AE for it; how damn hard is it to machine a set of knuckles unreal. The steering rack shouldnt be a problem, i run a CF one on my truggy with no issue. Saxton was talking about the ackerman top plate and said the only time they broke them was in europe or some shit where there were concrete sections on the track, he said if ur really worried about it to boil it for 10-15 minutes. Gonna be alum ackerman top plate and towers out in the near future too. tank is bitchin for sure though, thats my favorite part lol

I know exactly who you were talking about. People always talk big in forums. :crazy:
Official RC8 thread - allan42r - 09-29-2007
runnin the gas truck this winter should help you with the different way this car will need to be driven. these cars at st louis looked liked big electric cars driving among tanks with wheels. hope i can keep up with ya mike and it would be great if mello got one, love to beat up on him alittle . lol
Official RC8 thread - HAGASAN - 09-29-2007
yeah thats some big talk I just did. I just wasn't sure you seen the first post, but whatever.
Not trying to start a bunch of crap in here at all. I just think its wrong to sell in a thread. This is a great thread for a new car, lets keep it on topic. Sorry.
