Hey everyone! Last week I wound up getting busy and missed my usual Monster Truck Madness post, so I’m posting twice this week to make up for it! I wanted to change subjects for this extra post to talk a little circle track racing- in particular the Losi 1/12 NASCAR RTR that made massive waves upon its announcement last week! While [...]

Hello everyone and Happy Thursday! Today, it’s time for my “mini” review of the Losi Mini LMT Monster Truck. The truck has been out several months now, but it’s taken a moment for me to get one in my hands. Let me talk about why that is. I’ll be straight with ya’ll, I have been pretty soured on “mini monster trucks” after [...]
Over at Losi they have uploaded a new King of Hammers – RC Car vs Real U4 Car video. The video shows a full scale U4 going hard in the rocks against the Losi Hammer Rey rc car. Needless to say, it’s quite the interesting video with the two going over the same trails on the ultra-tough King of Hammers [...]
Greetings all and happy Thursday! Well, some big (small) news dropped today! Losi has announced the 1/18 Mini LMT 4X4 Brushed Monster Truck RTR, in Grave Digger and Sonuva Digger body packages. You can click the link here for the full specs, but the main gist is that Losi, well, shrank the larger LMT into a smaller platform that has a very [...]

Hey guys and Happy Friday! Today’s MTM is coming out a day late, and it’s because I tried writing something about monster trucks but it was impossible to not be swept up in the Losi Promoto-MX Motorcyle hoopla, so the heck with it. Let’s talk about the bike. Dirt bikes rule. While my own personal 1:1 riding days ended, oh, probably [...]
Hey folks and Happy Thursday! Well, last weekend it finally was time to re-power my new TLR tuned LMT. I got five to six years of use out of my Graupner brushless system, but it finally starting acting up. It was time to go shopping! It’s been awhile since I’ve had a new Castle system so after doing a bit of research, [...]
Hello folks, you’ve made it to Thursday and another Monster Truck Madness! The Trigger King monster truck club that I race with recently held their second outdoor race of the season, and I was able to get even more trigger time in with my TLR tuned Losi LMT. Not only that, but several of the trucks were in competition across various [...]
Hello everyone and Happy Thursday! I just had my first monster truck racing weekend of 2023 and got to get my fleet dirty! I want to focus on my LMT’s here, though. Both are quite a bit different from each other given they are the same platform, but both trucks are my two favorite r/c’s that I currently own. Let’s start with [...]
Hey all and Happy Thursday! I wanted to share where I’m at with my TLR Tuned Losi LMT kit and share some overall build impressions thus far. In my 30+ years in the hobby, I’ve somehow never built a Losi kit before. Kinda wild when I think about that, but it’s true! The instructions are nicely laid out, and each step of the [...]
Hey guys and Happy Thursday! Just a slow news day in the r/c monster truck world, eh? In case you missed it, Losi announced a limited edition TLR Tuned LMT. The main specs that differentiate from the RTR version, save for the obvious that this is a builder’s kit that needs electronics and tires to be completed- – Carbon Fiber Chassis Plates – TLR [...]

All new from Losi is the 1/10 Polaris RZR Rey 4WD Brushless RTR. This high performance UTV has a great scale look, while also having big brushless power under the hood. Here are the highlights- * Officially licensed by Polaris * Designed after their top-of-the-line RZR Pro R wide open model * New RZR Rey independent rear trailing arm suspension * Standard 4-clip body [...]
I called it! Sort of. But I am surprised that Losi was the one to fill in the blank. Surprised, but not disappointed, seing how Doug seems to be absolutely in love with their LMT. There was an IFS-shaped hole in reality, now it is gone, and the RC fauna is better off for it. I haven’t had the time to [...]
