i want a picture of a x2 on a scale the x2 is no where near lighter then a rc8t.
ive driven a pjx jammin and the rc8t slaughters it. it handles better jumps better and turns better. and for those that say the pjx and the x2 arent the same they are ythe same truggy but the jammin is wider because they had to use there motor mount wich has a huge footprint. so all those people that claim the x2 is lighter i want a picture of it on the scale

all true ..... driven the rc8t yesterday good truggy turns great but i wont compare it to the jammin...jammin is faster nor i campare it to str-r.. the losi 8t is the almost comparable to the rc8t but soon that will change when losi bring out the 2.0 version
hey Max by any chance you know roughly what the run time you friends get on fuel on the X2?

The mileage we are getting is unreal....we filmed 10:40 track running on a huge track with loose deep dirt and a 200' straight..and returned with 30 cc of fuel..... That is my race modified JPX 21 on a JP4, Picco medium plug and OD 30% and stock X2 clutch..a full house Jammin ride LOL.......... radar the setup runs 45 MPH and has acceleration like a 28 ..... the X2 is off the hook, i absolutely love the Truggy !! i love how it jumps, it hangs low and lands with zero drama, just hooks up and goes...
heres the video we shot, i did edit out some of it... we would have finished the tank but we were getting eaten alive by Mosquito's so we called it a day at 10:40, the driver was getting all bugged out !! LOL so any odd wipeouts were where the driver was swatting off the swarms of bugs that were attacking us....

that motor is within an inch of his life, lotta off throttle too. he'd get even better mileage all that said if he'd put an egg under his trigger. sometimes i wish folks could sit in a real car and have some1 use the gas like that.
again, saw more hub retainer ring failures causin folks to drop outta heats. and subsequently tryin to find fixes.

Which motor is within a inch of its life ? are you referring to the motor in the video ? If by chance you are I can assure that motor is not within an inch of its life, its running a good tune and temping an average of 210.... That particular motor runs like that day in and day out and never misses a beat...just like CLOCKWORK !!!
Hey Maximo arn't all motors withing an inch of their life... or a fraction of a millimeter anyway, half a turn in moves the needle a mm or so and its a gonner!!!

my rc8t run's great
i have an rc8t that i just left the losi 8t for and so far it's been great. no slop handles great. shaved time off my laps. it's still pretty early only had it just over a month. but i like it better than my x1 or my 8t. by the way anybody want to buy a losi 8t with a grip of spare parts.lol
