What's the difference between a GTX and an NXT?

Post by highwayracer »

hello All,

I picked up a losi gas truck a few years ago but I don't know which one it is. Here are some "before" pictures of it:

my understanding was the NXT had all the graphite stuff, same exact truck as the GTX.

Sort of like the XXXNT and the XXXNT Drake edition

Yeah a GTX is probably correct answer.

I actually discussed this a little bit with a former Team Losi employee a little while ago.

The big things are the Dual Disk Slipper, the change to the inner hinge points for the rear and the CR hubs on the rear. There is also NXT specific shock towers.
The GTX was also an exclusive product to Horizon Hobby in the days when Team Losi was independent from them.

That's interesting to know. I have a BNIB NXT that I need to get around to building at some point. :)
