1:8 Scale Nitro Competition Buggy Get Support From the Team The world wide HB racing team is extremely proud of the D8 buggy. It's the logical next step in top level racing machines for Hot Bodies, & racers around the world have been waiting for the follow-up to the Lightning 2 Pro Evo. D8 racers, whether they are directly on our racing team or local club racers, will benefit from the racing experience of the worldwide HB Off-Road Racing Team through the latest, top performance setup sheets & state of the art option parts development. Chassis The D8 starts with a brand new chassis made from a solid chunk of 4mm thick 7075 aluminium, with 10 degrees of front kick-up. The chassis plate has angled sides for extreme stiffness front-to-rear, giving you a solid platform for race tuning. Drivetrain Getting the power from the engine to the tyres is yet another job that any good race car must be able to perform properly. Getting as much power as possible with a minimum of loss or drag is just as important as keeping the tyres in contact with the ground, which is the job of the suspension. The D8 features every detail you'd expect to see in a top-level competition car, & more, when it comes to the drivetrain.
