  …The half 8 ROX…I thought the 18T was pretty cool but the Half 8 buries it in the long term…The ONLY issue I have had so far with LOTS of bashing is…well…nothing really…The hex hub sux…they are small and tiny and NOT 12mm…other than that its a beautiful but extremely hard wearing platform…RC mart has sold me a ESC and a Hitec servo this week…Have to dance with the devil occassionally 😀

  So the question is what kind of prices are people paying?
  
  I mean if USD$220ish is a good deal then woohoo! If it isn’t obviously I need to look harder?

  …the H8 is slow out of the box…You will need a motor swap, oil shox and bearings to start it on its way…The xspeed is fine for a start if you are still brushed but a mamba WILL fit…The car itself is STRONG…its also slightly heavy…I personally think its better than the RC18T but not in stock form…

  i bought a half 8 from my lhs for AU$250. Quite reasonable i think. Definately needs more grunt. Will have to ‘invest’ in a brushless i think. Might nearly be quick enough then.
