That Losi truck would be something I'd be into for sure. I know nothing about the power band of a nitro engines, or if they can be geared for maximum speed of 30mph? Too pricey for me at the moment anyhow. Anything nitro coming my way would have to be rock bottom cheap-ish RTR...maybe HoBao Hyper VS buggy. I tell myself I'm dead set on buying only 1:8 scale buggies or 4wd SCT that is built somewhat off of 1:8 scale buggy. I'm done with expanding the 1:10 scale fleet (fingers crossed
).
It's an obsession for me (nitro). I'd have more trucks than I do, but I just don't have the space. 5 planes, 7 boats, and 4 trucks is my limit.

Heres the Novarossi truck pulling some wheelies. Engine is breaking in still - about halfway brought the third quart of fuel. Still has a long way to go before she's gonna be totally leaned out for some speed runs. This truck easily gained 10mph top speed with this engine over the SH .28 P6 it replaced. I am totally a fan of Nova engines.
