Nitro and Electric Ready
All of the parts needed to run either nitro or electric are included in one box.
Rear Adjustable Hubs
The rear hubs on the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have an updated pin location as well as are now height adjustable in more increments for fine-tuning and maximum rear grip
Square Insert Pills and Narrower Rear Pivots
All pivot mounts have been updated to use square pills to offer more tunability. The rear pivots are now narrowed to improve the front to rear roll of the car and provide more rear grip in all situations and better-balanced front to rear.
7075 3mm Aluminum Chassis
The chassis is new to the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 and is made from 7075 3mm thick aluminum and hard anodized for the best wear possible. The chassis is also milled out deeper to allow for more flex and the lightest 1/8 chassis to date.
Center Diff Setup
The center diff mount is a new molded composite piece offering more rigidity and the new integrated mount for the throttle servo is lighter. The E buggy side will be handled using an updated center diff setup from the 8XT.
Brake Setup
The brake cams have been updated and the brakes are now freer and provide better and more consistent braking force and feel.
Front and Rear Shock Tower
The rear shock tower works with the new rear gearbox and pivots. The front shock tower is shorter to decrease the front chassis roll as well as lower the CG. Both have been lightened, new camber link mounting positions, as well as shock mounting positions to provide the tunability and durability racers, are looking for.
Better Diff Access
The front and rear diff case have been altered to allow easier access to the differentials without removing the bulkheads from the vehicle. The rear diff case has been updated to allow for the new C and D pivot blocks.
Cab-Forward Style Body
A cab-forward design helps with overall downforce, which improves steering and overall stability. The body comes precut for ease of mounting.
Front Spindles
The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 spindles have been updated to use 3mm screws for the steering arm for increased reliability.
Front and Rear Universals
The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 includes universals for the front and rear which are shorter and lighter which makes the car smoother in existing turns and aids in the flow in bumpy track conditions.
Aluminum Wheel Hexes
The wheel hexes in the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have been optimized for use with this updated platform. They are hard-anodized aluminum for durability and weight savings.
Radio Tray
The steering servo has been moved in and forward to provide a better balance to the car. For the E version, the updated steering servo mount has an integrated ESC mount to get the ESC forward in the car.
