Li-pos for any use were just outlawed by ROAR. I say dump ROAR if RC is to have a future....

I would'nt mind picking up an electric car,
It would give me more practice time on the track.
What would be a good durable starter car?
I need to learn to drive better before i worry about going fast.



IN GOD WE TRUST, ALL OTHERS MUST PAY.

sounds like your on the right path to getting faster! slow is key at first, even if you have to roll the jumps so you don't wreck.

I'd say the Associated T4RS would make a good starter truck.

Who's Ready 4 One - 11-14-2006, 11:13 PM

XXX-T Sport RTR Brushless w/XR2i
Team Losi Sport XXX-T Brushless RTR II w/Novak motor, ESC and JR radio


In Stock: Illinois
In Stock: California

Retail: $549.99


Product Number: LOSA0096

--------------------------------------------------------------------------Features

Proven XXX-T chassis
Novak SS4300 Sensored Brushless Motor and ESC (ROAR legal)
Factory-finished body
JR XR2i computer radio system with digital trims and 2-model memory
High-Torque Z-590M steering servo
Factory assembled and ready-to-run


Overview

There is no question that brushless technology is the future of electric R/C. The explosion of electric aircraft popularity certainly confirms this trend. Now, Team Losi and Novak have joined forces to make the first 1/10 RTR electric stadium truck available in an RTR form with brushless power!

Naturally, the higher price point may exclude your more budget-conscious customers, but the advantages of brushless power should be easy to sell:

-Longer run times and higher speeds
-Virtually no maintenance
-Programmable Novak ESC for reverse or ROAR-legal racing (where reverse is not allowed)

The future of electric RTR's has arrived-and Team Losi is delivering it to your shop today!




Team Losi has always been at the cutting edge of design for both racing and sport models. The XXX-T RTR has distinguished itself to be one of the most popular electric Ready-To-Runs due to its racer inspired design and industry leading electronics. Team Losi now raises the bar yet another level with the XXX-T Brushless RTR, the first electric RTR equipped with a state-of-the-art brushless motor system. There is little doubt that brushless power is the future. With greater power, longer run time, better reliability, and much less maintenance, brushless offers more of everything the enthusiast wants. Until now, the only way to achieve this level of performance and reliability was considered costly. With Team Losi and Novak working together to offer this remarkable package the enthusiast can enjoy all of the benefits at only a fraction of the cost. The custom made Novak system includes the innovative sensor-based SS4300 brushless motor, which is ROAR approved. There is also a pre-programmed user friendly Super Sport based ESC with One-Touch Set-Up and Thermal Overload Protection. The ESC features two user-selectable profiles, one with reverse and one without for racing. Both options offer built-in drag and push brakes, which until now have not been available. The XXX-T Brushless RTR brings together the unique combination of a race-proven Team Losi chassis design, premium JR XR2i radio, and industry leading Novak brushless motor system. Best of all it all comes out of the box ready-to-run with a killer new trim scheme. Like all Team Losi RTR’s the XXX-T Brushless uses all genuine Team Losi replacement and performance parts.





PERFORMANCE FEATURES
1. Exclusive XXX-T suspension package with hard-anodized oil-filled shocks
2. Exclusive rigid molded chassis with dropped center
3. Molded suspension components feature interlocking construction
4. Universal driveshafts deliver crisp acceleration and improved handling
5. Adjustable slipper clutch for improved traction and acceleration
6. Racing transmission with heavy-duty adjustable ball differential
7. Precision ball bearings throughout
8. Novak SS4300 sensored brushless motor
9. Novak Super Sport 10.5 brushless speed control with reverse
10. Rugged racing tires pre-glued on one-piece yellow wheels
