One of those well intentioned, poorly conceived exercises in adolescent impatience and disappointment. Lesson learned. :lol: Sounds familiar... I had a box delivered from TBG. Including decals from MCI. 8) And then I took a deep breath and started cutting and masking and painting and applying decal...

My latest XX build. Just waiting on a painted body. Wow! Just stunning! Love the stripes on the chassis. 8) I gathered my vintage Losis for a photo. The XX Cr is my old racecar that I parked after my last race in -97. Then a couple of years ago I wanted to get a JRX2 and then it got sort of out of ...

It's finally here!
I will go for the original white version since I have an original vintage one in the collection.

Hmm...quite large box from Germany.
What could it possibly be.

The cat seems to approve.

Hi, I got a tip regarding a Junior T for a reasonable price and from a neighbour country here in Europe. I bought it thinking it would be a nice pile of parts. It turns out the truck has never been run. Not a scratch anywhere. I guess it is a late one since it has the white front bulkhead and a ligh...

Thanks for the comments about the Junior T body! I ordered a big box of bodies from TBG just a couple of months ago. Never saw that they had the Junior T body and never thought to ask them. I even had special colored decals from MCI made. Decals that are now on the Jconcepts body. Guess I'll have to...

I contacted TBG regarding the Junior T body. It turns out they had stopped making it due to supply shortage for the specific Lexan needed. However they managed to make me a body using a different material. Big thanks to Trish and Jon! 8) MCI provided the decals. I tried the function where you can ch...

The last byggy I raced was a XX CR back in -97. I still have it, but I can´t get myself to drive it. So when a XX showed up on a local auction site I waited patiently until the last 15 seonds and placed my bid. Won it at $90! The Tekin charger was from the same seller and I got it for $10. :D 202305...

Found a guy in Norway that had 50% discount on old stock Losi stuff!
Been looking for misc parts for a long time and he had them all!

Since the inner upright was broken anyway, I decided to try to fix it.

Try to save as much as possible from the broken upright, then carefully file a piece of carbon fiber to fit.
Heat up M3 nut and press into upright.
Let´s see if it holds up.

Good input! Now they are really rounded!


Slowly getting reassembled.

Schumacher Active Caster System for Losi XX.
Was gifted to me last year by a friend who only used it a couple of times back when it came out.

Now updated with paint!
Decided to keep the pink wing. It sort of matches the pink in the decals.

Made an effort to make one more run before the rain.
Didn´t make it...
The second the cars were put down on the track the rain started.
We run these cars a lot and they needed a good cleaning anyway.

Finally!
A very nice box from Grand Prix 3D in Australia has arrived.
Been waiting since 1991 for a chance to build this!
