Team Losi Matt Francis Edition Triple-XT
Move over Brian, Matt Francis now has a signature truck! Matt's well-known red motif visually separates his namesake ride from a standard-issue Triple-XT, and in typical signature-vehicle fashion, the Matt Francis Edition includes just about every performance upgrade part Losi offers. Here's the list:

• Graphite composite chassis and suspension components
• Hard-coated, machined-aluminum slipper shaft and top gear
• Ball-bearing steering
• Titanium-nitride-coated, gold shock shafts
• Threaded, hard-coated shock bodies with molded preload collars
• MIP CVD drive shafts
• Red-anodized-aluminum front hinge-pin brace
• Red anodized, ball-milled motor plate
• Red-anodized front axles
• Machined-titanium turnbuckles
• New "Fury" body and Special Edition stickers
• Red aluminum rear hinge-pin brace
• Red front and rear bumpers, body mounts, wheels and rod ends

Suh-weet! The Matt Francis Edition will cost more than a standard Triple-XT (duh), but you'll save megabucks compared with the cost of buying the upgrades separately.

A ready-to-run from Team Losi? Not in the traditional "entry level" sense. According to Losi, the race-prepped Triple-XNTs will be the same full-on racing trucks Losi offers in kit form, but will be built, adjusted, and personally inspected by actual Team Losi team members like Adam Drake, Todd Hodge and Greg Hodapp. The trucks will come complete with a performance Picco .12 bump-start engine, JR XR3 FM radio system and custom painted body.

Sure, we all knew it would happen eventually, but did you expect to see a truggy version of the 8IGHT so soon? Click Here for more pics of Adam Drake's ride and discussion of this red-hot truck.

Wow! The company that lit the fuse on the off-road mini explosion has just tossed a new grenade into the battle with the Micro (not mini) T, a 1/36 car that looks to have all the performance of "big" stadium trucks! More info here.

Team Losi's Muggy will be hitting stores soon, but we've already got our first-drive notes. So, is the Muggy more monster or buggy? Get the scoop here!
