Slash is the biggest electric class around here by far, we run "Spec Slash" and always have at least 18 or 20 people. Sure they may look cheap, but it's close racing and you can beat the snot out of them. I've already got mine preordered with the LHS. At least it comes standard with the cupholders :lol:

Yecch,

I think I just threw up a little bit...


(Sorry Losi guys, no offense...)


It looks like they spent less time copying the Slash than Associated did....At least they could have given it a pretty body like the SC10.

I like the fake molded radiator fan detail that's up front. I'm not sure why it's there, considering it's already got the decals of fans in the back.

maybe it runs hot...
Projects and shelfers:
Late Edinger, RC10B2, Dual Sport, GT, Kyosho Turbo Ultima, Triumph, Tamiya Sand Scorcher, Blackfoot/Monster Beetle, '67 Beetle, Nikko Rhino, Traxxas Fiero, Slash, Hand-built Dune Buggy..all on here somewhere...

I watched 3 pre-production trucks running in the JBRL race in Camarillo. They looked pretty good. It wasnt their top factory drivers either...2 Losi employees and one sponsored driver. In Open SC, they finished 3,4 & 5 in the main.
