Jrx2 prototype???

I think I'll also use this response to the topics of reproducing parts or any other controversy. It's just so much easier and less stressful.

Who'da thunk interents could be this easy?

I feel fortunate that I got to work with the Losi's for so many years. It was fun hanging with Jr. especially when he would move offices or clean his office. I never saw an aluminum proto of the JRX2. Jr. over the years showed me quite a bit of cool stuff but I don't even recall seeing an aluminum car other than his RC10 proto. The closest thing would be the Magnesium chassis xx-4 protos. I wish I had hung onto one of those chassis'

Hi Richard. Thanks for Your information. Do You have any interesting stories about (vintage) Team Losi prototypes, products or ideas that was tried but didn't work or didn't went to production? I remember that You did write once to here (=rc10talk.com) something about transparent tyres. Why were these made?

HI Jirka,
Sorry it took so long, but I finally got a picture (poor) of the transparent tire. I think the clear tire was just to see if they could run the mateial. I also have "tranparent" plastic outdrives but they were shot to test the molds without causing any damage.

Rich, is that rubber or is it an SLA part (hard rapid prototype)? Either way, very cool. Thanks for sharing

It weird, not rubber, but still flexible. Reminds me of our old HT compound, but not rubbery if that makes sense

Well rich, if you need those tested on a crawler I am your man, lol.

Bout my second set of Comp Claws but the pre-pros are still running strong!
