Now Team Losi owners have something to ‘strike’ fear into their competition. With this SCX-T upgrade kit from Exotek Racing you can convert the venerable XXX-T into a completely ROAR legal SC power house. Similar to the kit released by CRC, the SCX-t has been developed and tested to ensure the best performance, fit and durability.

Its unique bumper mounts accepts the Losi Strike front bumper and Traxxas Slash 4×4 rear bumper for extra durability and realism.

Having shown us their prototype Losi 8ight EU Fighter body shell last month, Bitty Design were in touch to tell us that their new body has been finalised and is now available.

Also thanks to a new air scoop situated along the side of the cockpit, the throttle and brake linkages don’t rub off the inside of the shell when in operation. Developed by Factory Losi driver Riccardo Rabitti, this new body has already won the 2nd round of the Italian Championships.
