Come on Losi - New 4WD Buggy

[Drift_Buggy]

XXX-4 must be out now for around 5 years now and the xx-4 w.e was re-realised a couple of years ago and now no longer sold again. The 4wd buggy class is really starting to take off and we are still stuck with that single belt driven fragile car. 99% of people prefered the xx-4 over the xxx-4 (even thought it had 3 belts and saddle pack batteries). A new 4wd buggy that has the new EA3 material and the same suspension set-up and chassis layout (but hopefully only 2 belts) would be one sweet buggy

[tony2]

they would prob makeit a shaft drive with a saddle packat the back!
oh wait then it would be a bJ!! lol

seriously though why spend a huge amount of dollarson a 4WD that will be beaten by the A team, Just look at the worlds this year. If truhe master has a B4 he would have laped the field.

in saying that it be good to see a new car.


Also the xxx4 is close to the strongest car in the field.

[.MAtt.]

I would say it would probably be more like a yok mr4-bx & tamiya trf501x belt driven car with with there EA3 material and shocks

Does losi really care about racing anymore? based on the worlds they don't seem to..

If they make a new 4wd e buggy, maybe they will firesale the XXX-4s by doing the brushless RTR thing like the XXX-S?

I would like to see them put a new wheeler out there, or heck, hook up with the XFactory guys and go with a revised X-5.

If AE got the B44 off the BJ4, don't see why Losi can't get the XXXX-5 off the X-5

You mean XXX-4 CR Actually I don't know what they'd call it, but XXXX-5 seems like a too big of a name...it probably weighs more than the car itself

The BJ4 was a joint effort that culminated into the B44 not a copy of the BJ4.

Umm, ok.. LOL.... Thats like saying AE was on board from the beginning when the bj4 first came out.. Not...LOLOLOL

[Metla]

It amounts to the same thing, what difference does it make?

The BJ4 would not be in its current state of existence if AE didn't have a car on the market to use as a base, and the B44 wouldn't exist in its current state if the Bj4 had never been created.

Its a win-win situation, A car based on 2 companies race pedigree.

Lets hope both make lots of money

From what I got out of the debate on the B44 thread, it was

[Jack Smash]

The next 4wd car losi comes out with will be a 1/18th scale RTR. Don't forget they dropped the TEAM from LOSI.
