Re: Yokomo Off-Road Car Timeline

One of the pieces of paper in the box was this that shows the pre-production model and on the back there is a price list. It's interesting that they call it the "RPS/Yokomo C-4" I assume that this was dropped in the box by RPS because it had the parts list on it that is nowhere else in th...

My JRX2 restore/race build

Hey all, I picked up a JRX2 a couple weeks back originally with the intention of just restoring it but now I’ve decided to get her running in the local 17.5 class.

Re: Turbo Optima mid SE

Great build! BITD we had one Kyosho guy at our track who ran an Ultima and Optima then Optima Mid, did pretty well. Was it the Optima Mid that came with the gold shocks and the Turbo had the platinum?

Re: My JRX2 restore/race build

I decided to figure out a way to mount my servo securely w/o the old standard of servo tape and shoe-goo and without making holes in the chassis. I had some 1/8" ABS plastic laying around and decided to use that as one side of the servo mount. Since I'm using the Losi bumper that goes under the...

Re: My JRX2 restore/race build

Ready for some weekend action! :D Didn't feel like dealing with losing my wing during a run so used a TLR 22 front wing mount to secure it.

Re: My JRX2 restore/race build

I have a B&R stocker that's more period correct but...it's not a Losi :mrgreen: Would love a Losi Super Stock but a Super Insane will do the trick.

Re: Losi spring alternatives? (especially for 2.0 long orange LOSA5129)

If you aren't already a member join the Vintage Losi group of Facebook, someone's bound to have them for a decent price.
