1/8 electric buggy?

[Parag0n]

I'm looking for a 1/8 electric buggy kit, but am having trouble finding anything... they all seem to be 1/10 and 1/12... does anyone have any suggestions? i'm looking at spending about $150 including motor and ESC.

To clarify, i'm only really looking for a basher, something to compliment my Savage SS, which i can run around when the savage decides not to play nice

the only ones I've heard of are conversion kits for the hyper 7 buggy....you won't find any 1/8 scale buggy electric or nitro for 150......unless it's used...

dude, unless your getting it used you wont find a 1/8 scale electric buggy ARR for $150 your best bet is the new MRC Academy SB Sport V2 kit,
its $200 no electronics

yea, sorry to burst your bubble but there is no NIB electric 1/8 buggy kit for $150. I dont even know of any electric 1/8 in the first place. I know I saw an article to make the hyper 7 brushless and it seemed to work good. So used hyper 7 roller - $150 Brushless - $250 2 Good batteries - $100. Not sure on the price of the roller but you get the point.
