Our 2 Kraton 8s have finally arrived. Unfortunately I will be out for most of the day, so We still have to wait before playing haha

Just went for a quick run, man these feel so different to the Mojave's.
5200mah batteries don't cut it with this monster. Looks some 11000mha are in order.
Just make sure it fits the battery trays. Also don't run big and little cars together. Congrats on the new whips.
 
Nice! Many good memories to be made with the kids.
 
Geez these are big haha. It one thing watching videos but in the flesh they are huge.
Our Mojave's look small now.View attachment 236018
Yeah, my 6S Corally Kagama is big enough for my area... I've looked at the 8S models before (both Arrma and Traxxas), and they are just too big for the places I have to run.

Well, I killed mine 😟

It was an unlucky jump. There was a small bush in the path of the car after the jump. The car was positioned in the air, with the roof facing the bush as it entered. Unlucky for me, there was an old wooden branch inside the bush.
It pierced the roof and had a bulls eye shot right into the middle of the ESC.

Wow! Nice shooting!!! 🤣
If you decide to stay with a stock replacement, Jennysrc.com sells new 'take offs' at a good discount!
I have been very happy with jennys in the past. I recommend!

If you're gonna crash, crash big!!! 😎👍

Yeah I have heard a few people saying Henry is pretty good. I am in Australia, but will check it out.

Ah yes! The dreaded down under import tax!!! 🤞
Good luck! Finding a good parts supplier or 3 will help keep you off the workbench and on the track. 😎
