Overview
Easier to drive and tougher to beat – two of the main drawcards of the 8IGHT-X ELITE buggy from Team Losi Racing. Using the winning pedigree of its predecessors TLR have updated the drivetrain, chassis layout and suspension geometry to build on the championship winning heritage of this 1/8th scale racing dynamo.
