textured bottom jrx2 who else own's one

[GJW]

hi losi fan's! im quite curious to know who else on the forum own's a new built/nib textured bottom (super early) jrx2? still a personal favorite of mine we all know the rc10 edinger's are few in number's, but what about the mighty jrx2

[delsami]

i am a ae fan. a friend of mine is a losi fan. i traded a textured chassis/no stamping motor plate and aluminum outdrive spacered jrx2 to him. i also included a nice jr servo. my jrx2 needed nice wheels and a body tho. He gave me a 5 race day old b4.1 factory team.

perfect, weare both happy

I bought my JRX2 back when they first came out. Mine was a rough bottom. Sadly it is basically a Pro-SE today and the chassis and most everything original aside from the gearbox are long gone. 20+ years later and I wish it was bone stock again.

I also have about 40" of 20deg material that could make these again- Pop quiz-anyone here know why the texture is there?

This AE guy some how has one.................My JRX2 collection is almost better than my RC10

When you don't look the stuff finds you, so I am officially no longer looking for a mint early Edinger RC10

Of all your cars Gary, this is my favourite!

I believe RCVeteren on here has an unused textured chassis plate too?

These chassis & the earlier smooth chassis seem to be really thick... I got a smooth chassis from an earlyish car (ali outdrive spacers, no logo on motor plate etc) and its considerably thicker than one I have for a later car... its quite a bit heavier too!

P.S; Gary, is that one of the factory painted shells? I'm glad you have shown a picture showing the rear... I was wondering how the striped finished around back of the body.

I have a textured bottom JRX2. The original box(lost) did not even have a picture of the car. It just said limited production run.

I plan to clean it up some day, but I have been so busy with other R/C projects.

I do have a new one like this pattern, it has a mysterious 3rd hole by the right steering bellcrank hole as well. I have seen this on one or two others and have never got an answer why. It appears factory drilled and countersunk and since the thing is new I can't explain it. I am going to build a yellow motor plate, yellow wheel 5 link out of it.

I have another new built early X2 that has the more weavy tan looking color throughout in this thread but not a great pic.

If your not looking it will find you is so true...one of losi buggies has that chassis...

Thicker fabric on the top layer? maybe it is just the texture of whatever material they are sealed in for vacuum curing?

Yup-
