The following is a first hand race report submitted by Mike Truhe and Team Losi,
This past weekend I competed in Expert 1/8 Electric Buggy at the Hot Rod Hobbies Shootout. The track was a very tight, small track for the bigger 1/8 cars with TONS of traction. Things started off going well, and after some testing, chose to run the Team Losi Racing Taper Pin Tires. I preferred Red compound for rears and silver compound for fronts. For the chassis setup on my 8ight-E 2.0, I changed a few things from what we normally run for these unique conditions. I lengthened both front and rear camber links and ran my shock oil 2.5wt thicker for the extreme temperatures; it was 105F+ everyday. Even with the extreme temperatures my car ran awesome and I had no worries of overheating with the Xcelorin 1700kv motor and Xcelorin 1/8 ESC.
