Not long ago, Losi released the Speed-T, a new truck based on the XXX-T platform. Losi is releasing another truck based on the XXX-T, the Desert Truck.

Not very long ago, Losi released their 1/18th scale Mini Slider, which gave life to a usually un-heard of class, 1/18th scale oval racing. Now that there was an easy way to get into the action, many Mini Sliders were sold, and RC tracks all over the country were building small purpose built oval tracks just for these trucks. Now, losi has given us all another option for a miniature scaled oval racer, their all new Late Model 1/18th Scale Oval Racer.The oval racer is packed with tons of new features like a longer, more stable chassis, multiple battery mounting locations, a RX-280 high speed motor, long arm suspension with oil-filled shocks, a low profile rear shock tower and short shocks, and much more.

 Since I made my first post on this project a few days ago (http://www.zerorc.com/project-ultimate-micro-t), my Micro-T has gone through almost a complete overhaul. I am about $300 deep in this project out of my pocket, and I must say, it has been worth every single penny! My micro is by far one of my favorite vehicles that I have owned. No matter if im racing it at my local hobby shop (where it receives alot of attention), or if im just messing around in my house, the Micro is a blast and never gets old. The thing looks sickly with all the new parts and hop ups it has received, so much so that it stays on display at the local hobby shop between racing days. Here, check the little bugger out!

Team Losi's 1/18th scale Mini-T is well known in the world of RC, and is by far one of the most popular Minis of all time. The Mini-T has most likely had every part for it redesigned by tons of after market companies, and there are several amazing machines that have been made out of these things seen all over the internet. Now, Team Losi has put everything great about the Mini-T into an even SMALLER package, the 1/36th scale Micro-T! After watching many inspirational video's, I could not resist, I upped and bought a brand new Micro. I will be doing a full aftermarket conversion, and I will be posting a new update article every other week, possibly weekly. Here is the full list of what I have bought so far:
