The car is a Losi XXXCR with the Atomic Carbon mid motor conversion. I brought it second hand about 4-5 months ago off a fellow racer who himself had brought it just for the comprehensive spares package that came with it for his own 'CR2' (the name given to these converted cars). After a quick strip down I soon realised that it needed some parts replacing/overhauling & wasn't going to be a quick case of chucking in some radio gear & heading to the track.
The whole car has now been stripped & cleaned & rebuilt with the following new parts;
-Front uprights & steering arms
-Front wishbones (now graphite)
-4 gear transmission housing from PSI racing (who also offer a mid motor conversion for the XXX) Mine is one of the first that was machined - hence the white delrin, the production items are now supplied in black
-All new RPM ball cups for the main camber & steering links + the small Losi ones at the servo
The rear end has also been converted to the earlier XXX arrangement which had a narrower VLA (inner hinge pins are closer together) for this I used;
-XXX Graphite wishbones (mine are actually XXCR ones!)
-New hubs
-Ali XXX/XXXT Pivot plate
I topped all this off with a new 'Phobia' shell which I painted in my usual scheme to match my Corally touring car.
Anyway heres the pics of the finished product;

The gearbox needed some slight modification to fit!
