I'm hopefully selling one of my trucks to buy the 4x4 Los

I REALLY want to pick up a Losi Slider though just to do some oval stuff, haha

Well what do you want? A short course truck like most of us have? ( I am selling both of mine, hehehe,, lots of upgrades)

Those short course trucks seem to be the most popular. The Associated SC10, HPI BLitz, Traxxas Slash, Team Losi XXX-SCT, etc...

Lots of options. Associated and Losi just came out with 4x4 kits, but the slash 4x4 can be had in a RTR setup so you don't need to buy a radio system.

I bought a Traxxas Slash 2WD because it was pretty cheap and pretty indestructible, and lots of traxxas aluminum upgrades( i bought everything). I bought a Losi XXX-SCT 2wd because it was a new truck out, and was getting alot of good reviews. The radio system was supposedly better than the others(the receiver itself is a $50 piece) and the handling of the truck was awesome according to some that have every other truck and have raced them all.

Hard choice for sure :)

i found a outdoor track 5 miles from my house and a indoor track about 25 miles away in akron, OH.

i was going to get a HPI blitz but they were on backorder until late april!

i cant wait to start playing around with this thing. the last r/c truck i had was a Tyco Hammer
