Overview
Team Losi is proud to announce the “8IGHT” - the first American designed and produced 1/8 scale nitro powered off-road racing buggy. Like most Team Losi designs it is quite different from the common chassis currently offered. Instead of taking the easy road of producing one of the two predominant chassis/suspension packages as has become the norm, the Losi design team did their homework and started with a clean sheet of paper. The new Team Losi 1/8 buggy uses the same innovative thinking, sophisticated technology, hi-tech materials and cutting edge design that has separated their racing chassis from the rest. The 8IGHT offers a number of truly unique features and design characteristics that provide both improved performance and ease of tuning and maintenance. When you get past the slender racy looks you will find the high quality components and ergonomic design that has long been a Team Losi trademark. The use of advanced composites, exotic alloys, and hi-tech coatings place the 8IGHT in a class by itself.

8IGHT Debut WIN!
RC Pro Series East Division Round 1
Hosted by The Farm II
April 28-29
Team Losi drivers Adam Drake and Travis Amezcua attended the Eastern RC Pro Series Round 1 at The Farm II for the debut race of the Team Losi 8ight. The pre production version of the Team Losi 8ight showed awesome speed by taking Top Qualifying honors with Travis Amezcua as the pilot. In the first round of qualifying Travis took the TQ position for the round by 20 seconds. He later went on to TQ rounds 2, 3, and 4. Right behind Travis was 2nd Qualifier Adam Drake also piloting a pre production Team Losi 8ight. At the end of the 45 minute A-Main event it was Adam Drake taking the overall win with his Team Losi 8ight by nearly an entire lap
