THE Losi XXX-SCT BND Short Course Truck ReviewBetter late than never? A Losi XXX-SCT finally landed on our doorstep for a good ole’ fashioned bashing. How did it hold up? Read on my friends…
I was using some box Brian left for me as a foot rest. It was a good height and sturdy, but the nasty look I got from him a few hours later means it was for something else. After some careful observation apparently it was for a review or something. So for those of you wondering what’s in the box [...]
