Losi XX

[Wassy]

Hi All,

I have just brought myself an Losi XX as abit of a project and restore job. I just wanted to check if people know how this will handle brushless?

Looking at it, it has the original single slipper.

Cheers
Mark,

looking at it again, I am sure this is a hydra drive clutch.

Also, can anyone tell me how to tell if its a CR or the standard XX

post a picture and I`ll tell you quickly if its a XX or XX cr or a mix.

And converting to a dual pad slipper setup is super easy I was told

I haven't seen that page on vintagelosi.com before - very helpful info!

The XX is my all-time favourite 2wd buggy & whilst at a disadvantage against modern mid-motor cars (given the high grip type tracks that we race these days), they can still put up a good fight in the right hands.

As a vintage racer they are supreme! & Being released around 1994, the XX qualifies for most vintage race series. The DoubleX is easy to set-up & drive & are generally pretty durable. Spare parts are becoming a little hard to get hold of these days & it seems people who race these cars regularly have a number of cars - the main race car + cars for stripping for spares - its the easiest (& often cheapest) way to stock pile spares. Sabulatech http://sabulatech.com/storefront/ is part of Vintagelosi.com & does have a number of XX parts listed - some parts, Dan (the site owner) has had reproduced including the venerable front bulkhead - which were becoming almost impossible to find & ridiculously expensive when they were advertised for sale.
