My RC cars...yes they're all Losi!

This one is the first car I ever bought...a Losi XXX Kinwald Edition. It's a 2WD model, easy to work on and the parts are readily aviailable. This model has recently been very popular again as people appear to have decided that the XXX Kinwald was / is better than the more recent XXX-BK2 Edition (Brian Kinwald 2). Long live the XXX.


This is my current favourtite, the XX4-World Edition. It's a 4WD model which jumps well and handles well, especially off-road. However, this is a pig to work on and due to it being 4WD belt-driven buggy (with a whopping 3 belts - arggh) there is a lot more to go wrong and it needs a lot of TLC. Just look at it though...it's damn fine!


You know when the indoor season comes along and you get a bit tired of running buggies? No? Well anyway, this is my attempt at resolving that issue. Essentially it relives the boredom for about 2 -3 weeks and then I just have to do some jumps again. On the plus side these saloons shift a lot quicker and it's a great way to practice your lines around a track. This is my XXX-S 4WD saloon - and yes it battererd - well the shell is anyway...like I said it is a good way to practice. A lot of tracks in the UK are only geared up for running these sorts of cars, so if you want to get about a lot and have mid-week racing then a saloon is pretty much a requirement.


Well...that's it for now....and here's me talking like I have an audience and hopefully I will have at some point.
