I have the eight t rtr and love it. The buggy eight rtr went on sale this weekend so I got one. I had a pill start break on me already so I have a replacement on order and hope to convert to a start box at some point. I recommend you buy a spare pull start for your parts kit. Easy to switch out but ruins the fun when it goes
hey there i know this is old .. but not to be harsh to anyone here i have it and i can tell you this it is not slow at all no joke ... i can barley handle it
@@bubblesrcshedyeah there you go… get a Traxxas and then you can do 20 full speed pulls up and down your street then try to figure out why you fried the engine
I prefer 20% fuel for break-in with xtra oil added and 25% max for bashing. Imo why run 30% unless your track racing. Higher nitro % shortens engine lifespan and hard to see the difference really between 25 to 30.

Me on day one: Stay away from water…….don’t get it dirty.
Me on day 365: Let’s see if it’ll skip over this pond……. Damn I need scuba gear to get that.
thats cool they give you a battery
I almost bought one of these but Hybrid32494 was saying it’s super slow. I’m new to nitro myself and was thinking about a Traxxas Slash or Jato
Bubbles , I Have A Traxxas Slayer I love it I did many Upgrade’s and it’s a Fast 3.3 two speed engine soooo much fun
@@johngrillinnsmokin9092 I can’t wait to get a nitro to hear it scream

nice buggy for the price. rip that pull start off and toss it in the trash. get a starter box. 👍
I might get one but I think it would be to loud for where I live is it super loud or no?
Yes they are loud !
