What wheels are they ?
Hi,
Both the dished and the spoked wheels are from JCRacing in the UK.
I use his wheels on all my runners and they are great.
John has a lot of nice parts for our vintage runners.

Re: Corally SP10V – the sad one

It took some searching, but I finally found a body with the correct look. A guy in France had this Peugeot 905 body.
Now painted and mounted on the sp10v.

Re: Losi Jrx -JJJ

I placed an order from Fibre-Lyte for a couple of towers and braces for some ongoing projects. Took the opportunity to have them cut the chassis sides in carbon, pricing was very reasonable. 20250503_143427.jpg The chassis rigidity compared to the 3D-printed sides is massive. The 3D-printed versions...

Re: Losi Junior Pro Se

Very nice!
I just love how you can mix and match so many variants of the Jrx platform.
Looking forward to seeing this highly tricked out Junior finished!

Re: Double X CR modern racer

I would normally increase the rear tie rod length to get more rotation, but I'm limited by the 2 hole CR hub carriers. If you get the rear hubs from a XX CR Kinwald you get a third outer hole for the tie rod. 20250112_142310.jpg Unfortunately they used the same part number as the CR hubs (A-2126), ...

Re: 1991 Detroit Losi prototype – tribute car.

I'm curious to know how these handle compared to the Pro Se and later XX. anyone driven one yet?

Re: 1991 Detroit Losi prototype – tribute car.

I realised that I didn't have a period correct Trinity in my collection. Back in 91 I was running stock motors. So I turned to a guy in the UK from whom I got several nice Trinity motors. He came back with this picture. received_282531700388632.jpeg The motor on the right is an actual Chris Doseck p...

Re: So what did you get in the post today ???

Swedish post was busy today. One flat package of decals from MCI. And finally the motorplates I need to get on with some of my builds. Have been looking for a while, but they are usually to pricey. 20250404_191000.jpg Same seller also had more that I needed, so with combined shipping it turned out o...

Re: So, what did you do RC today?

Went to see a guy regarding a XXX Cr.
It was nice, so I bought it.
20250403_191336.jpg
However...I sort of got two more cars...
20250403_191406.jpg
And a lot of spares and wheels.

Re: Corally SP10V – the sad one

Time for an update. The rubber damper caps are totally finished. They are swollen, brittle and torn. Fortunately my brother had new ones in a bag, which he kindly gave to me. :) 20250316_100808.jpg Opened up my Corally 300 modified and found it to be in very good condition.

Re: Losi JRX Pro SE build

These Jammin wing cam locs are some uber rare pieces. I think they would be a great fit for this build. However, I'm not sure if I can make myself open them. They are my only pair. Now I finally know what they are! I got a used set in a parts lot I got a long time ago. Never seen white ones anywher...

What I expected: sidor.JPG What I got: 20250301_144708.jpg This is not going to be a direct replica. More inspiration taken from the looks of Jacks car. The carbon chassis has Pro SE shape and I´m using the exising holes, so the central support is very different from the original. Currently the ladd...

Losi Jrx -JJJ

So, what do you do when you´ve torn down two complete Jrx-chassis cars to get the best parts into a -91 worlds replica and is left with a lot of parts. You also have a box full of new parts. 20250301_143443.jpg On top of that, you´ve got an unused carbon “hybrid” chassis from the GP3D -91 words kit ...
