Kraton 8s

Nice photo! My son and I enjoy watching your vids. At the same time, its kinda frustrating because you beat the crap out of your cars with little on camera breakage. I‘ve broken so many parts on mine. I do not by any means beat it. No 50 ft jumps, rock quarry bashing, etc. lol. Overall so far the 8s has been a fairly disappointing experience due to the durability and need for upgrades. When it works, it’s a lot of fun, but it’s spent more time waiting for parts than it’s been used. I’ve seen others online say how tough it is, but I just don’t see it In my experience. Oh well, keep enjoying yours! It’s fun to watch.

Thanks Brother ?. Sorry to hear you've had some issues with yours. It's a big heavy rig no question. Avoid awkward hits as much as possible and keep your fasteners snugged down. I'm still running original arms, links...etc. I've bent and loosened hardware more than anything. Upgrades are the natural progression for regular harder bashing. I'm grateful we have nice options available. The size of this rig raises the stakes with impacts and rolls. Hope your luck improves.
