Watch out for the new Losi Speed-NT from Team Losi! As the brother of the Losi Speed T, this nitro version looks ballistic; It comes with a .20 Losi Engine mated with a two speed transmission for ridiculous speeds of 60+MPH! It even comes with a nice looking 2.4Ghz Radio and Receiver stock. Should be a great choice for tearing [...]

Well, it went down at the ROAR electrics nats last weekend in Nebraska. In the first A-main of 2wd Mod Buggy, Maifield and Tebo were running first and second. On the last lap, Tebo pulled a [...]
Wow, there hasn’t been crap going on in the industry lately. No big news coming out. No big products, just lots of boring. So how about some “in’s” and “out’s” for this weeks episode? Anodized blue parts are “out”, and “gun metal” anodizing is “in”. I’m guessing a lot of car manufactures haven’t gotten the memo yet, so there it is, [...]
So Losi finally stopped with the teasing and unveiled the new Losi 8ight-T 2.0 RTR Nitro Truggy. Off the bat, I have to say 2 things really stick out. The crazy low profile body.. the thing looks like it was squished. Probably a real nice low CG! And the fact that it ships with a [...]

So here is an interesting twist on this weeks Cub Report. Normally I’m here opening my big mouth and waiting to get a phone call from the Big Squid about how he can’t believe I would post that… well this week I got a little help. Seems someone under the name “R/C Ninja” sent Brian a little fuel for [...]

Recently we posted a rumor about Losi buying Kyosho America which we heard from a pretty reliable source, but I just got an email from someone sitting next to Mr. Losi saying that it was only a rumor, and that it is not true. I still have a feeling that there is some big news coming out of the [...]
