will admit im diggin the body style, but that fake tyre on the back has got to go. i think this will give me an excuse to finally go micro, but the losi product line needs to go back toward racing.

Wasn't there a big rumor that they were working on a rock crawler to go with the Axial rig? Something about associating tires with new cars; they released a monster truck tire shortly before they released a monster truck, an 1/8th Buggy tire came out right before the 8ight was announced, then they spread news about rock crawler tires and everyone went "OMG they're making a rock crawler!"

Curious, how are guys racing micro-t's. Can you mount a transponder on these at all? The desert truck version I like as it looks like there alittle more room in there, but then again, may not be necessary.

Thats what I was thinking. If there's more room for things like a transponder these would be awsome! I own two micro-t's one stock and one lipo'd and bb-motored. I've fooled around with them outside on dirt with mixed results. The stock one is good with the wedge body on my garden oval. The wheelbase incress might be whats needed for some really good offroad micro action. Now if Losi has these lil' badazz's would come with a dsm system like the sliders! I couldn't help but get one for sure.. What these going for t9?

YOU THINK? Having a spare wheel on the back adds that scale real look..........maybe? And its not a tire or tyre its a whole wheel
