I'd like to post about which suggestions I feel are silly, but then everyone would hate me:) and everyone knows that this rat race we call life is a big popularity contest.
I will say one thing as a body painter, I hate pre-cut bodies. it's easier for those who like to spray and go, but when you liquid mask stuff, I like to start with a body that has no holes cut out.
808 buggy, I love everything about this car. it's hard to nit pick about it. But after a year of use Mine is still in tip top shape. the only reason I'd think about selling it is because I'm wearing down the chassis.
One improvement that Xray made for the 2009 spec kits both 808 and XT8 that I dislike is the shock boots and shock retainers. If your shock boot rips, and the lower piece falls out from between the shock cup and the bottom eye-let, the bottom shock cup has way-too-much-play and gets jammed down under full load. I actually tossed the new pieces in favor of the old shock cups and eye-lets.
Also, I love the addition of the left hand thread screws for the shocks on the 808, please include that with the XT8, unless the XT8 is going to get replaced with an 808 based truggy, (Highly recomend this change)! you'd get alot less nit picking out of me, especially since everyone I know is switching to mugen Mbx6t's. I feel like the kid at christmas watching everyone open their new toys when I'm stuck holding a hand-me-down.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still up there mix'n it up with those guys, I'd just love to really stick it to them with a truggy that no one could touch, and I believe that truggy is the big brother to the 808.
