Hey everyone! Thought I would share some pics of my LX-T for interest sake and to reminisce.

Back in the 90’s I turned my LX-T into a dedicated indoor carpet off-road racer. Was such a fun and competitive truck, and I got lots of compliments on the body design

I also have a XX-T and LX-T/Duratrax nitro conversion I’ll have to dig out and take some pics of. All have been retired for a couple decades now (I miss my racing days).

Cool truck! I would like to see a overhead chassis pic too..

Very nice LXT with some great upgrades. Would love to see pictures of your others as well.

Love the stereo mc’s chassis protector

Couple more overhead pics for @BattleTrak

Here’s my mostly stock XX-T. Was only ever used for dirt off-road and won me a lot of races, loved it

Ha thanks @RETRO R/C It was the perfect sized sticker and was a requirement at the track that all chassis screwheads were covered so as not to snag on the carpet.

And here’s my third Losi (I really should give it a full detailing), it’s an LX-T with a rare Duratrax nitro conversion kit. This was from the early 90’s nitro craze when there were very few race competitive 1/10 stadium trucks as 1/8th 4WD buggies were still the kings of nitro. I raced this for many years including the Gas off-road world challenge in 92 and 93 at Freedom Hill in Auburn Hills Michigan (it’s now a big amphitheater!) where I got Jack Johnson and Jammin Jay Halsey’s autographs on my t-shirt like the nerd kid I was (and yes I still have a t-shirt from 1992) In 93 I got to race against (and lose badly to) Brian Kinwald in the heats. I ended up on the podium of the D main that year, I think BK won the whole thing.

I have a shelf wear but unused Duratrax chassis, if you’re interested send me a PM.

Nice! Thanks for the offer @romulus22 but I have an unused one as well sitting in a box!

Oops double post

Another cool paint job!

Interesting lightening on that LXT and looks well done…you usually just see haphazard holes everywhere. How is the flex & twist on it?

It seemed fine, I think I did it in all the right spots even tho I wasn’t a structural engineer or anything It handled really well!
