Re: First race ever

Have fun, don't be afraid to ask for help, and have fun. something I relearn a couple times a month is that 20 minutes effort in your garage = 40+ minutes at the track. The more prepared you are the easier it will be when you get there. IE, batteries charged, electronics installed and working proper...

Looking forward to seeing this one done. With the Strike being delayed you'll easily be the first at your track with a Losi SC truck.

Re: My XX4 - Heavy Metal Truck

Thanks guys. I saw JK Racings bodies and if this were going on the shelf, I'd be considering one of those. The Truck body is actually pretty serviceable for my purposes, the buggy body looks like poo. They are readily available but I am trying a budget custom "wrap" and see if I like it an...

My XX4 - Heavy Metal Truck

Having seen JKs truck here and on other forums I've always had it in the back of my mind to get one. It was only recently that I added an xx4 search on ebay to my routine to hopefully track one down. A couple of weeks ago I stumbled across this one, kept my eye on it and with no bidding on it I figu...

Cool truck. I've been on again/off again thinking about getting one of these kits for my T4.

BTW, great paint too. Simple and distinctive.

Re: Never seen this before?! 3 Losi rebuilds at once!

Oh, should I tint the windows or leave them clear? Should I back the white inside with a black to darken the colors? They match almost exactly but they are bright. Clayface need input................. Love the paint. How long has the paint been on? It seems to me that I look at a body that I just p...

Re: Latest Ebay grab MX 4

Really nice collection! The paint on the B-max is killer. Is there any way we can get a B-max in the states? even if it were possible, spares would be an issue. Definitely possible I race with a guy locally who runs a B-Max. Neat car for sure. He keeps the usual spares on hand (arms, hubs, towers) a...
