Monster Truck Madness – Talkin’ Losi LMT Spec Racing

Hey folks, happy Thursday to you! This week we are heading into the monster mailbag as I got a good one involving the Losi LMT. Hey Doug, Recently I was watching some Trigger King races,  is there a reason you guys don’t have a LMT spec class anymore? Not really a fair race when stock LMT’s are up against a modded out clod. What about a shock on [...]

Monster Truck Madness – New Rotten Apple

Hey folks and Happy Thursday! Last week I wrote about updating my Rotten Apple paint scheme and it’s now finished so I wanted to share it here!

Monster Truck Madness – Racing the LMTs

Hello everyone and Happy Thursday! I just had my first monster truck racing weekend of 2023 and got to get my fleet dirty! I want to focus on my LMT’s here, though.

EVERYBODY’S SCALIN’ – FINE LASER DESIGNS CLIPLESS MOUNTS

What’s up Squid Nation! As much as RC has evolved over the last few years, we still tend to see body clips being used on some models. Not a big deal, but body clips can be a pain in the Squid at times. Like when you need to get the body off fast because its smoking and so on. Fine [...]

Monster Truck Madness – Building the TLR Tuned LMT

Hey all and Happy Thursday! I wanted to share where I’m at with my TLR Tuned Losi LMT kit and share some overall build impressions thus far.

Hey all, happy Thursday! Last weekend the rain FINALLY relented and I got to go monster truck racing for the first time since March.

I’ve written in the past about how the Losi LMT was starting to become a dominant [...]

Monster Truck Madness – Buyin’ and Sellin’

Hello everyone, Happy Thursday. There’s a very timely e-mail that just came in today, so let’s get right to it. Hi Doug, nice to email meet you. Got a question for you: I’m super intrigued by Horizon Hobby’s sale on the Losi LMT roller—$260 until 4/22 or supplies run out. However, I’m skeptical. Why the deep discount?
