You are welcome. The stuff on the site has grown a lot since I first started it in 2007.

Agreed, for a while I was buying vintage manuals, no need now. Please if you ever lose interest in this make sure you pass the torch to someone here.

>>Agreed, for a while I was buying vintage manuals, no need now. Please if you ever lose interest in this make sure you pass the torch to someone here.

Yeah, probably helped kill the used manual market on ebay. They used to be really expensive.

But really the site owes a lot to all the people who have helped contribute pictures and scans over the last few years. Probably half the content is user submitted stuff.

If I ever get tired I will definitely pass it on to someone else. Right now the hosting costs are nothing, because it is under a hosting account I use for some other sites . The whole site is only 265mb in size.

>>I cant stop looking at the SNOT!

Sounds like you have a problem! :P

Thanks to Tom N again.
There is no longer the annoying link to Oople for the Jrx2 manual. Now you can download a PDF of the whole manual.

I am just about done with the vintage Losi compatibility chart. Should be pretty cool when done.

Ok, after much pressure from YZ-10. :)
Lonestar says it is cool to post the XXCR manual on vintagelosi.com. It is now on the manual page.

Thanks to Lonestar and Laurent for this manual. Also thanks to YZ-10 for pushing me to get it up there.

This means only the GTX manual is missing. Well, other than the XX Bushing models, who actually cares about those XX bushing manuals?
