Look what Santa brought us….. Ok I know it’s not ready for resale and there is no acual release date. But it’s like getting a IOU from Santa, it’s from someone you can trust right? So be happy and enjoy the new information on the HPI RACING 1/8 scale Savage XL two-stroke powered gas machine!
We talked a little about this car earlier but there was little detail of its release. It’s LARGE and it’s Gas powered so we are going to follow the release of this machine and we will get our hands on one to review as soon as possible. While the image above does say “prototype shown” it’s clear they have made some changes. Including a much larger carb, which looks almost like a full size Walbro. I can not see a pipe in the image but I am sure there is a tuned exhaust stuffed in there somewhere.
Stay tuned to LSN for more information as it’s release. Official link from HPI Racing HERE.

After a long wait the team at LunaTik has finally released their Losi 5IVE-T tuned pipe. The guys at LunaTik are known for making one of the industries cleanest, best looking, highest quality and best performing pipe on the market for the HPI Baja.

The time is now, they have come up with what we would call a very clean and well executed tuned exhaust pipe for the 5IVE-T.

The Driver Stand talks to Mark Hull of TGN Distributing about the Team Associated 1/5 Large Scale and more!
Take a listen to the newest postcast from The Driver Stand. Craig talks to Mark Hull of TGN Distributing and editor of LSN. They talk some more about the possible Team Associated 1/5 scale and more on the industry in general. There is a possibility of an Associated 1/5 Large Scale truck, car, buggy or whatever and the discusion leads into how that could effect our industry. LSN talked about the possibility of a large scale buggy or truck from Associated in the PAST and have heard positive and negative responses from it. I don’t think this will be the end of the talk about a new brand to enter our market…

Large Scale News has the world exclusive sneak peek of the newest and greatest product from creative minds of TeamChase. When you look at the 1/5 scale short course Losi 5IVE-T it’s hard to criticize over its looks. But take a closer look and spend some time with it and you will start to consider changing how yours looks. You may decide to make it into a buggy by removing the body and running panels on the cage or maybe by changing the body all together. But the bumper is one area often overlooked and options are often limited or in the Losi 5IVE-T case, non existent. Until now…..
The minds of TeamChase has figured out how to create a cool realistic short course look while also increasing overall strength and durability. It has a cool minimalistic appearance and the thing looks beefy!
Here is was we know so far about the new Losi 5IVE-T Short Course Bumper.
