Always wanted one of these and finally I have one , This Mugen Bulldog is fitted with a Teamline Patriot RV old school relay ESC , a Peak Racing Dynasty 19T motor and still runs its 4 wheel steering using twin servo's to reduce slop , and like most of my cars the tires are worn from running . 107_24...

This is my Trinity Evolution 10 box art replica that I've wanted to build since I first saw it and the magazine ad about 30 years ago. It's about as accurate as I could make it but has a few minor differences. The box art car has many small differences from a built kit, including a Losi battery cup,...

Hot Trick ‘Trinity’ Optima. This is a car I have been lusting after since seeing it as a 12 year old kid in a December 1986 mag article. It took me quite a while to source all of the parts required for this build, especially the elusive Trinity upgrades to the already hard to find Hot Trick conversi...

This is my recently built Composite Craft Worlds RC10. It's my first RC10 buggy. I had been keeping my eyes open for a CC Worlds chassis for years. When I finally found one, it was the short version. Luckily I found this proper long chassis' shortly after. It was on a dirty, grimy car, and had epoxy...

I tend to vote for the one that makes me feel the worst about myself

The thing about paying an arm and a leg for something is to make sure its somebody else's arm and leg

So a little background first... I started racing Losi trucks way back in the beginning, the late 80's, first JRX-T's, then LXT's. I continued until the mid 90's, when I got sick of having to buy the latest gadgets every few months just to stay competitive. After that I was out of racing and the RC h...

I found some miss-matched wheels in white that I mounted some modern rubber on, as well as some old HPI black Star 5 spoke wheels I used for my clay track tire setup. For radio gear I'm using a Futaba 3PV transmitter, and an R204GF-E antenna-less receiver. Also, had to change gearing to be a little ...

Just as I was thinking I was close to being finished, I came across some extra nice goodies that I had to have. Original Losi threaded shock bodies (XXT vintage, I believe), and some nice titanium nitride coated shock shafts. Found a really cool custom cut chassis protector in carbon fiber as well. ...

And, of course, lastly the body. I wanted a slightly modified version of a Pro-SE scheme with different colors. The gray in the stripes & the bed accents came out a bit darker than I wanted, but live & learn. Just an excuse to get TBG body & try again later.

Oh, and I almost forgot... MCI racing provided a custom colored decal sheet that I used to go with my choice of body colors. This also allowed me to keep the original sheet intact. I substituted the yellow accents for blue & the pink accents for gray.
