    Ya'll are lucky!
    What an unbeatable bargain!
    If I could afford it, I would totally get a second MT8 at that price!

      I’m considering it brother. When you weigh up the cost of a shell and a new chassis etc etc you may as well just buy a new one!! Mental deal £299 (and they come with Kaiju arms now in the box!!)

      Full disclosure:
      I'm working on trying to aquire another Corally.
      Either the Asuga or the Kagama.
      Haven't flipped the coin yet to make the final decision 😆

      Hey James ,
      Yeah man , it seems for once finally we get a scorching deal here in the UK , I seriously thinking about a second truck and tune it different one dedicated to 4s and one for 6s .
      Keep up the great work also buddy

      This is what im thinking buddy the spares side of it ! ,
      Or even having one for 4s and one for 6s .
      And now confirmed with the Kaiju arms its a no brainer.
      Stay awesome

      Hey Rich , Yeah its certainly alot of fun this MT8 its defo got the right sauce , Power , Handling , and the package is awesome for only £300 in the UK which BTW is a better deal than the guys in the USA having right now this has totally surprised me , a 6s truck for not even 3s money its bonkers .

      Hey buddy , I totally agree with you and quite honestly I believe not a lot of point running this truck on 6s , I will give it a go but I think my mind is made up already 4s gives me a reliable basher and still tons of fun .
      Hope that your well buddy

    Drives well eh? Knew you’d enjoy it brother!!! Lots of people never use 6S with the MT8 so going 4S is a good choice. When that tarmacs dry you’ll see it really
    fly! (Into a kerb!). #PONTYPANDYFEST

      @ChriswithaCrc  Рік тому +1

      Yo my man ,
      Yeah buddy drives amazing to be fair , a total different feel to other trucks ive owned , i know people say that its a stunt truck but i got to say its more than that , Its totally replaced my Big Rock feels .
      Responsive , Fast , suspension is great , Drive train is to die for .
      4s is more than enough it keeps you on your toes and also your electrics are going to love you for it , if i want more speed ill just gear up a touch and add a fan .
      Cant wait to get this out on a dry day now !
      Really want to get this down to you to come for a rip with ya at some point also .
      Stay awesome

    OK. I'm definitely getting one of these after the holidays. I'll get it early in the New Year so I'll have time to do upgrades, etc. before the spring when hopefully it will be warm enough to take my old sack of arthritic bones outside. I had been planning on getting a FTX DR8 but I think one of these would be the better buy. I'm guessing the soft tyres are probably more suited to the grass than a path or road.
    Congratulations on 1K subs. 👍

    • @ChriswithaCrc
      @ChriswithaCrc  Рік тому

      Hey there Nick , Yeah its a bargain this honestly , i genuinely prefer the feel of this truck running that the DR8 , Not taking anything away from it the DR8 mind ill be honest its still one of my favorites , but this feels tighter and better quality , the drive-train is dreamy , quality of parts are spot on .
      Now being straight there are a few things you need to look at but thats the same with every truck hey . the tires i genuinely like apart from the Backflip LPs these are right up there with my favorite stock wheel and tyre combo , grippy enough but still allow some slidey fun .
      At the moment this is the best value for money in the 300 to 400 price mark .
      Thanks so much for the support also , stay awesome

    Nice rig indeed, Chris! Good to see you back at the old stomping ground too! Quite a neat little spot, and a little bit risky too with all those square curbs, rock walls and slippery pavement, definitely ups the anti a bit with a machine like that it really moves well. Doesnt seem too crazy with the way its set up. Sounds mint too. Congratulations on hitting 1k subs too mate, that didn't take long at all! Fantastic effort all round! 🙌🙌👏👏🤙

      Hey Avo mate , great to see you back in the comments for sure , hope that you and the family are all well ell and safe .
      Yeah I love this truck so far , needed another Garth park basher for sure !
      Since the big rock going there was a bit of me missing glad to say that this has filled the gap .
      Yeah as you say it’s not a perfect spot for running but it sure does keep me on my toes !
      I’m very lucky to have this on my doorstep and so quiet and tranquil.
      When you doing another video Avo mate have been checking would love to see a long term review of your outcast !

    just found you channel fella.. I was looking at the MT8 for 300 quid, seemed like a bargain to me. I too had heard bad things about it regarding its durability compared to the MT10 but I don't do skate parks and I guess you would say I treat my stuff a bit kinder, so good video for me. going to give it a little thought but very likely I will buy one soon. Good video,,,

      Hey Gazza buddy ,
      Hope that your well , thanks so much for the comment and welcome to the channel and community.
      I totally think this is the best bang for your buck right now here in the UK 🇬🇧.
      Unfortunately yes they have a bad reputation, but I’m putting that down to the reviews that some others have done before setting the truck up ( this had and has a big impact on how your going to find it )
      It’s also now a good time to purchase as they come with some awesome upgrades that others will recommend you fitting , well done Team Associated and CML for including these .
      As you say most of us don’t and won’t run our trucks in skate parks that’s just a recipe for disaster! It’s fine for a few jumps but sooner than later that’s going to bite you in the ass !!!!!
      Just put a new video up on it bud here ,

      Totally agree with you buddy , this truck is way better on 4s !
      6s is a bit stupid in my opinion, and the wheels and tyres just don’t hold up to 6s power at all .
      The drive train and power system is very capable but feel there are a few things that let it down for a 6s experience.
      Having said that even on 4s it’s completely bonkers .
