Most people use the excuse that part support and setup info for the local track isnt available locally so they would rather get a losi . Monkey see monkey do most importantly.
Its cool to bash the losi for those of us on the outside because its silly to have one manufacturer dominate in sales so 1 sidedly when there are plenty of viable options out there. The fact that many losi drivers think there car is the only one that exists makes it no surprise there's a backlash.
on a side note ( and perhaps a bashing one ) , It seems most of the 90% of the a-holes at my local track that never turn marshal are the Losi drivers . I don't know if its that way everywhere else, but it puts me further in the minority just like my cars.
