Thanks for the updates, I notice on the XXT page a couple of the pics show my truck chassis incomplete - might be worth updating them to show the chassis complete with shocks etc? I am sure they are plenty of pics in my build thread here http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=19020&start=60#p215365 :lol:

Go on a little Thanksgiving break and everyone is talking abut me. :)
There is something gross about my avatar picture?!
I have been thinking of changing it up, need to find a picture of a little kid playing in the kitty litter box. :wink:

My scan wish list... GTX manual scan is about it. I have had a couple people offer and then they disappeared. I think people soon realize what a pain in the butt it is to scan a full manual.

Honestly though, if anyone has any instructions for 3rd party stuff they went to submit that is great.
I have a JG Rear body mount instructions I still have to add.

I appreciate all the thanks for the site. It has really grown over the last few years.
The stats for this year, so far, are 4,688 visits from 54 countries. It has much less traffic than rc10talk of course, but then the potential audience is a lot smaller. Not a whole lot of people out there looking for old Team Losi info. It is still cool to see all the people who do find the site.

Sabulatech(oldrc.com)....what a major work load that has been. If you ever get the urge to put a whole hobby store inventory online, pay someone to knock some sense into you.

Jamin, I will look into those pictures. 8)

If anyone else wants to have pictures of their stuff in the gallery sections send me an email with the pictures or the link to the pictures. I will get them up there along with at least your first name or rc10talk name if you want. I don't pretend to take ownership of anyones pictures, you are just being kind enough share them with others.

I forgot to add, my super secret double awesome wish for vintagelosi.com. It is getting a hold of Gil Losi Jr and seeing if he has any historical pictures or other historical info that could be added to the individual model pages.

So if anyone out there has a good relationship with the gentleman, or someone who knows him, and could pass that request on.
If anyone could manage that I would dedicate a whole web page on how awesome you are. It could contain pictures of you and your favorite pet or a picture of you and your favorite hammer relaxing on the beach together.

I'm not sure I will be available to all requests, please check with my assistant before scheduling.


There is one person here that I know is still reasonably close to Jr, I'll make sure he sees this thread.

I did send a mail to Gil Losi Jr about Your "super secret double awesome wish". See Your email inbox if something is coming from Gil Jr. Thank You for Your offer too, but I refuse it this time.

I could scan that GTX manual if someone has it. I will, of course, send the manual back to the owner too. Someone with the manual PM me about this if my help is needed.

Jamin You have a cool new avatar! I ALWAYS read Your screen name Jammin' anyway and now it looks like the real logo too.

I have a paper copy of the GTX manual that I would be willing to scan. My manual is a printed copy of a downloaded file but the quality should still be very good as a scan.

How do I get it to you?

Anyone have a lead on a good GTX body?

Just found this link to a PDF of the GTX manual. Let me know if this doesn't work for you and I'll scan the manual anyway...
