I find it funny how GRP is trying to reduce its prices to make money in hard times while every new kit from manuf have been 1 or 200 more than the past versions. It looks really nice though.

That has to be one of the ugliest bodies I have ever seen, but im guessing it will drive better than the original.

yea..I guess that's why the Losi truggies did so poorly at the races..I thought they drove fine..as long as you were a competent driver and know how to set up your truggy..if not.... just had a few issues with the throttle servos..But that is one ULGY body..It's a stretch calling it a "truck" ..

It is like one of those I think it was in the 60's trucks that had the flat front that looked like a Van and then was a pickup. I think Ford made them. Cannot remember the name.

I have one that i got in a trade and i wasn't really impressed with it. I was hoping for something to like blow my mind because it's a LOSI but I felt that my friends mantis was better and more fun to drive. I didn't have all the time in the world to set it up like I would, but I did what I could and for the price that they sold for i was really upset. IMO (but BTW I have the LOSI Muggy not the T so that might be the deciding factor for who knows???)

ORIGINAL: INTEGRA

until they release pics and info on losi's site...and Or Neobuggy or RedRc posts an Article...those pics are still in question....they are not trying to standardize the wheel offset's...Jammin's run 1/2 off as well.
[hr]
ill believe it when i get a response from Drake in regards to it...OR Losi posts it on their Site with a release date....2 things which have yett to happen....No one has even seen the losi guys testing the new machine...so again another indication those pics might not be factual....if so w/e no sweat off my back....Just means i have 1000's in tires that are of no use to the new truck is all....Im just hoping this isnt the case is all.
[hr]
you guys just dont get it.
[hr]
proof point...you dont even understand what my argument is about...Go back and read...then you might get it....Never did i doubt the new truggy was coming...im all for it....Just not the new width changes in the arms and wheel offset.
[hr]
reading the thread and knowing my dispute helps.
[hr]
no comment.
[hr]
apologize for what ?
......i honestly dont know what to say to that. hahahahaha

nice vid. On that first out lap i was hoping that drake was just getting the feel. I finally got to see some professional driving. that truck looks set up very well. I miss my 8t. It suited my driving style very well but i just couldn't keep a rear diff in it for some reason. I was hoping Losi put spiral cut diffs in this new truggy. i would have bought another if they had. I'm gonna stay with the mugen for now.
