The 8IGHT 4.0 buggy builds on this championship-winning heritage with
updates to the suspension geometry and drivetrain layout that make it
both easier to drive and tougher to beat. With
new suspension geometry, this will make it easier for drivers of all
experience levels to turn faster lap times with fewer mistakes,
particularly during brutal, hour-long mains.
The
engine has been repositioned to reduce front driveshaft angle so more
power makes it to the front wheels. This buggy’s throttle actuator now
uses bearings to further improve throttle and brake response. It also
features a new brace that prevents flexing during heavy braking.

features a new brace that prevents flexing during heavy braking. Front spindles and rear hubs have been revised to accept a larger 8 x 16 x 5 outer bearing for increased durability. The chassis side guards have been updated for a better fit. They also feature indentations for the Velcro body strips. In
addition to its new position, the engine mount has been designed with a
larger footprint that substantially reduces chassis flex and fatigue
underneath the engine when racing on high-grip tracks.
