The legendary TLR® 8IGHT-X buggy is reborn. The Team Losi Racing® 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 Race Kit embodies years of racing expertise and innovation, pushing the boundaries of speed, handling, and drivability. Meticulously refined drivetrain, suspension, and chassis design deliver a podium-worthy performance that's accessible to drivers of all levels. This versatile race kit includes everything you need to build your dream machine, whether you prefer nitro or electric power. With factory team option parts and metric hardware as standard, the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 is ready to dominate the track, straight out of the box. TLR's relentless pursuit of excellence is on full display – experience the future of 1/8 racing.
All the parts needed to run either nitro or electric are included in one box.
The rear hubs on the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have an updated pin location as well as are now height adjustable in more increments for fine-tuning and maximum rear grip
All pivot mounts have been updated to use square pills to offer more tunability. The rear pivots are now narrowed to improve the front to rear roll of the car and provide more rear grip in all situations and better-balanced front to rear.
The chassis is new to the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 and is made from 7075 3mm thick aluminium and hard anodised for the best protection possible. The chassis is also milled out deeper to allow for more flex and the lightest 1/8 chassis to date.
The centre diff mount is a new moulded composite piece offering more rigidity and the new integrated mount for the throttle servo is lighter. The E buggy side will be handled using an updated centre diff setup from the 8XT.
The brake cams have been updated, and the brakes are now more free and provide better and more consistent braking force and feel.
The front and rear diff cases have been altered to allow easier access to the differentials without removing the bulkheads from the vehicle. The rear diff case has been updated to allow for the new C and D pivot blocks.
A cab-forward design helps with overall downforce, which improves steering and overall stability. The body comes precut for ease of mounting.
The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 spindles have been updated to use 3mm screws for the steering arm for increased reliability.
The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 includes universal driveshafts for the front and rear which are shorter and lighter, which makes the car smoother in existing turns and aids in the flow in bumpy track conditions.
The wheel hexes in the 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 have been optimised for use with this updated platform. They are hard-anodised aluminium for durability and weight savings.
The steering servo has been moved in and forward to provide a better balance to the car. For the E version, the updated steering servo mount has an integrated forward-positioned ESC mount.
The steering rack allows more Ackerman adjustments and an improved servo saver to eliminate bellcrank bind during high loads. Also, the rear mounting points moved in and back allowing the drag link to sway back for a more linear steering feel.
8IGHT-X/E 2.0 uses the wing mount from the 8IGHT-X Truggy that offers different heights and positions for ultimate traction control.
The 8IGHT-X shocks are optimised and lightened to decrease the centre of gravity and lower the weight of the car and include 3.5mm shock shafts. The shock pistons have been altered to allow more blow-by to aid in bump handling.
Long front and rear arms provide great bump handling and stability. The arms are stronger using a truss-style base as well as upper stiffener plates to adjust flex for full tuning abilities. Bushings are used for the inner hinge pin area to provide a worry-free, smooth function at all times.
All three gear differentials now include V2 HD diff cases with composite pin holders, V2 O rings, lightened sun gears, and F/R high traction outdrives. Which provides more grip and a consistent feel throughout the entire run along with quicker acceleration and longer run times.
The 8IGHT-X/E 2.0 next-generation suspension geometry has further been updated making a car that is fast, nimble, and even easier to drive. This includes a myriad of updates including, a wider front pivot with less scrub radius, narrower rear pivot, an updated hub offset, longer suspension arms, and more suspension mounting locations.
17.5 deg caster blocks are included that allow the height of the spindle to be adjusted up and down for high-speed stability.
The sway bar system has collars that eliminate side to side play to provide a more consistent suspension package.
The chassis side guards have been updated to allow for more room as well as moved back 3mm to provide for tyre expansion. The E-Buggy side now has the battery tray moulded into the side guard for a lower centre of gravity and lighter weight.
Machined aluminium shock caps with threaded bleeder holes for easy and consistent bleeding of oil. Bladders and Emulsion seals are included for tuning to your track conditions and driving style.
