It’s Thursday again already? Oh my does time fly around this joint….. ========== Cub Reporter When is Losi going to put out something decent for a change? Hot D*ck Willy Cubby– Great question, I think? Ok, everybody knows Losi isn’t really “Losi” anymore. So to properly re-word your question, it would be “When is Horizon going to put out something decent again under Losi badging?”. Well, [...]
Another new product’s existance has been leaked through an early advertisement.

There isn’t much detail in the advertisement but a few of the new features include a carbon fiber TVP chassis set, a full complement of hard [...]
Kyosho has had the micro on-road scene pretty well locked up since the very beginnings of the class. Losi, it seems, is keen to lock up the micro off-road scene. They’ve done a fairly good job of offering performance minded vehicles in tiny packages. Another job that Losi has been fairly good at is taking one platform [...]
So the Losi Strike is considered the Dodo bird of the short course class. We all know that they need to release a new chassis to be competitive in the class.

Editor’s Note — Here are the facts: Adam Drake was top qualifier in the buggy class. Jared Tebo TQ’d the truggy class. Tebo then went on to win both the buggy and truggy classes. Jeff was sent there to take pictures and provide coverage of the event. What we got back from him was this “story.” [...]

For a limited time all new Losi Night Crawler B-n-D kits will include an extra complete set of Losi’s high performance Comp Claws tires. On their own these tires would set you back $40, so this is a pretty decent deal by any standard. No other info is available right now so just keep an eye on your local hobby [...]
Losi has a new mini for the dirt oval fans out there. At first glance the new Mini Sprint may look a lot like the old Mini Slider, but the similarities are only cosmetic, and even then only at a distance. The Mini Sprint features an all new chassis with a bottom load battery tray, mid-motor layout, and Fiber Reinforced [...]
Losi‘s still fairly new Boss Claws 2.2″ crawler tires are now going to be more metallic. Losi is soon to be offering the Bosses in their silver compound for additional traction on varying surfaces on those hot summer days that we all know are coming soon.

Losi is jumping on the closed cell bandwagon. They’ve recently announced a new closed cell foam tire insert for 1/8 scale buggies. These new tire inserts, as is common with closed cell foam, are very durable and won’t break down quickly. You can also reuse them multiple times, saving you money in the long run. These new inserts should be hitting [...]

As with all the other B-N-D [...]
