Default Pure 8th off road buggy

UK Design house - PURE - got in touch to mischievously tease us with a blurry C.A.D render of their upcoming 1/8th nitro buggy. Clearly not wanting to give up much right now - prototypes we're told will be competing in the BRCA 8th National series to aid development during 2010.

Having spoken with a few 'plane people' they reckon engines don't perform as well on the slant - upright is best. They also appear harder to tune - however, if the handling advantage is there, it may be worth it. Another reason to do 1/8th electric...

Does look interesting though - and being English is certainly a nice surprise.
