1/8th E Buggy is still developing. I believe next year will be the First Euro event.
There are problems in 8th with reliability of Electronics and Lipos. The cost is not as big an issue as 10th as the guys that race accept high cost so far. Until the class grows big enough and evolves i guess you wont see any strict rules. If the racers get tired with some continuing development and cost they may vote for some control on that next AGM, But maybe next year if the Euros are popular and some special guy wins with some special electrics it will be done anyway.
Dont forget EB board was created at request of racers to control the cost and to standardise the class.
In Holland the RC Scene is not so big and controlled. The people are more relaxed about such things and vaguely follow EFRA regs.
