ive always ran losi but i do think they have fell behind the 8ight ball just a TICK! its not much just a little off i love losi always have but fact is i ran a mp9tki2 and that thing handles the ruff tracks and has more steering plus with the weight the mp9 has it seem to glide on out side surfaces better. But if u ever take me to a fast smooth track im taking losi all day any day.
