We need 10th scale to come back

2WD Stock Buggy
2WD 19T Buggy
2WD Mod Buggy
2WD Stock Truck
2WD 19T Truck
2WD Mod Truck
4WD Mod Buggy

These were really fun in their day.

How about working on Brushed motors as well.

I know. Old school, but, if you like to tinker, there you go..

Remember the 1 run motors?? Get as much as you can out of motor

and then it needed to be rebuilt or it was done??

Talking Racing

I think the whole industry needs to pick up.

I surely miss 10th scale. Especially 4WD and 2WD Truck..

heck the way it was. All of it..

No complaining, just pure fun, lite trash talking on the stand, no hacking

dinners afterwards, and racing the next day all over again..

Preaching to the choir my friend! (Ruh roh, did I just say Dr. Evil is my friend, yikes… )

2wd & stadium truck are still fairly popular in SE Michigan. Possibly even a little resurgence lately, some of the new short course guys are giving it a go. 4wd seems kind of spotty best I can tell, despite the strong enthusiasm of the faithful.

1/10 scale is alive and well in Southern California. Five tracks in a 50 miles radius dedicated to 1/10 scale racing and 250 plus entries in the JBRL race series. Three years ago we were down to two tracks and one ran more 1/8 scales than 1/10. With both AE and Losi releasing affordable brushless RTR kits it is only getting better

Talking 10th Scale

Well, I have a question. I see many say 10th scale.

Do you mean 10th scale core truck??

My XX-4 is getting tired of sitting. I have to move the drive train in order to

keep the belts from sitting in one spot. The break if you do. Have lost

several.

I am glad to hear many are saying it's alive.

Not too many MFGs are making anything new in this respect.

Losi - No new XXXX-4 or XXXX-TCR.

Every class in 1/10 scale is popular and will get bigger for us now outdoor season is over .

AE just brought out revamped kits and RTRs . B4.1 , T4.1 , and soon B44.1

It should be pretty soon [Fall time when supposed to be released] and will see the start of Losi`s new 1/10 lineup .

The XXX has had... 3 revisions? The XXX, the BK, the BK2, and the XXXCR...

The B4... FTB4, and the b4.1...

now, the XXX4... is a disgrace.
