A new oval release from Losi
#32
This thing really 1/18 scale? Dimensions make it seem like it is a bigger scale. No matter that car looks like it will be a blast to drive! My 2WD mini Tamiya GB-01 on pavement or the dirt with it's 7 inch wheelbase is big enough to be very driveable and has the feel of a larger scale R/C, but is still relatively compact, so you can do a lot of running in a smaller space. Driving it around on pavement I couldn't help but think I would rather have a a stock car shell on it than a buggy. Which made me think about touring cars, but that scene is all about 4WD. Awesome to see this rear wheel drive come available, though I don't really see it gaining much popularity in the racing scene here where I live…but who knows, maybe others locally will be into it as well. I would enjoy running that thing on a paved oval, dirt oval, or on-road course.

Yeah there was a some info about the size on dirtoval.com. This MLM has been lengthened and maybe widened so it's almost a 1/12 pan car size. I've never seen a pan car in person before so IDK. On losi's site there is a pic of the slider and MLM beside one another and theres quite a bit of difference.
LOL. I keep wanting to call this car an M&M because of how MLM sounds when you say it real fast.

I will use the RTR body for now and pick up a clear shell later. My slider is using the RTR body, but I cleaned off all the Losi decals and redecaled it my own. I'll probably do that with the Late model too. I just can't wait to get this car. Losi has gotten on to something here. I'm waiting to see if this catches on with the other Manurfacturers.
