I just thought this was so strange. The shock arrangement is tottally different
since both cars are from different era's. This XX4 I have drives nothing like
my B44 it's like I'm learning how to drive all over again. But I wanted a Losi
and Ive been told the XX4 is one of the greatest cars Losi ever made.
I bought this car off of this very website. I've done some upgrades like
the titanium outdrive savers etc..Figured I might as well show it off on this thread.
Sweet ride that xx4...I really want to try a Losi 4wd car...heard nothin but great things about em. If its anything compared to the xxx-cr then Im sure Ill like it. 2 Different cars I know but the Losis have that signature offroad handling that suits me.

I race my B44 against the 4wd short course trucks.
I can actually keep up with them too.
I can get them on the straight, but due to them having larger tires
they can get me through the rough stuff a little bit better.
I know the they dont fit in my class but ok, at least I get to run my buggy some.
I usually run my 501x in the wintertime. It's spring now.

You shouldnt ever have a problem gettin by those trucks. You are supposed to be more agile on every part of the track than them. There was a Kyosho SC truck at the track yesterday and me and the B44 were leavin him for dead.

I switched to barcodes and pal I was flying.
I pulled 29 laps in my 10 min main.
The Intermediate 2wd Corr trucks w/17.5 motors did hit that in thier 10 min main.
I was like this isnt right, maybe they were just being show-offs.
and proving to me they can hit 29 laps as well.
