The losi you have to drive like an electric easy into the corners and easy out, you have to roll on and off the throttle also it seems like the harder you drive it the slower it is. You have to be very smooth with it.
My 2 cents
Forgot to mention having parts that are interchangeable is nice too.
Good post! I just got my 8ight and haven't had the chance to drive it, but I love the smoothness of the electrics, and when a good friend and LHS owner mentioned this to me I knew the 8ight was for me.
sounds like you got some guys who will let you drive their buggys. See if you can meet up with them on the same day and see what you like best.
The 8ight is a fast car. I think the Nitro challenge showed that.
