Well a winner with us anyway....
(If AE can roll out the Re-Re RC10 then I'm sure TLR would have no problem)

If losi did a jrx2 then associated would have to retaliate with a graphite kit, then losi would go plastic, and associated back to aluminum. Wait... Haven't I heard this story before?

And you would not have people complaining about rere parts being sold as originals!
Mmmm Commemorative Mini line, with the parts exchange from the jrx line you could almost have a single commemorative kit that you could build anything from a Jrx2 to a LXT I would buy the heck out of that! lol

I miss brushed motors in that hazy, everything seemed better when I was a kid, kind of way.

It does "break" the story behind the name of the 22. Should it be the 14? or 41?jamin wrote:The best 4WD platform brought bang up to date! I might need to grab one of these for my shelf, to go next to the original Its a XX4, but has styling from the old yokomo '93 car and an optima mid custom from way back when.
Super excited to see how this goes this week in Chico, best of luck to the TLR guys, go Mr Bloomfield!
I dont get the name 22-4 though, I thought 22 was 2wd, 2 motor config. Whats gonna happen when they bring out an updated version 22-4 2.0!?
I'm gonna turn one into a Rally Weapon, I've got the parts, hopefully I can make them all fit. 22-4-RW?

$469.00.
I may have to just run my XX4 for a while and see how many 22-4 parts I can swap in as I break/wearout stuff.

Re: Losi XX4 Re-release!!! Er.... wait a sec... :D
So has Losi, the Mini T was quite nice actually, I have a couple. They are pretty sweet scaled down xxxt's. Make a Jrx2 with that dedication to miniaturization and I bet it would be equally as good. Losi did not invent the mini scale catagory, but they did make it successful.knixdad wrote:Tamiya already did it and they were truly awful little machines, imho.clm wrote:Well how about making the Jrx2 smaller?

Anyways, the original 1/10 cars Tamiya emulated were not renowned for handling... and the small versions were more loose interpretations of the big ones.

You are quite right about that last part, Tamiya took bad handling cars and made them a little worse.clm wrote:So has Losi, the Mini T was quite nice actually, I have a couple.

That being said, it would be quite neat to have a tiny JRX2 with tiny 5 link suspension.

Re: Losi XX4 Re-release!!! Er.... wait a sec... :D
I've been staring at the parts wondering the same thing. The one piece Shock Tower/Diff Top Cover looks very cool indeed. No more disassembling a large amount of the car to get to the diff or to replace the side belt. Or to swap the Spur Gear.Y'ernat Al wrote:$469.00.

Re: Losi XX4 Re-release!!! Er.... wait a sec... :D
Very nice car, and it's named as its predecessors, XX-4, XXX-4, 22-4, dunno why everybody focuses on the 2 motors layouts / 2wd of the 22

Pre-ordered mine just now!!
Like in the video with Todd Hodge, mine is going on the shelf next its predecessor, the XX4. I might pick up some TLR ally hubs for the rear just 'for show'. If only Trinity did ally upgrades for it
