This is my full review of the brand new Losi Mini 8ight T. In this review, I will go over all the positives and negatives of the Mini Losi after having about 10 packs through the car. Although not a "long term" review, this should settle any doubts upon purchasing this Truggy. Next will be a full upgrade series for the little truggy and I'll be getting it ready for an indoor clay track.
