Amazing! Still out of my price range but a very nice car. I love Losi and am impressed with the balls they have shown lately with trying something new but not being arrogant enough to just slap something together and push it out the door. They take what's worked before and tweak it into something new. Worked well for the xxx-scb and I bet this will be a hit too.

I should probably go to Losis site but is this thing out yet?
Site says they're due in early October but you can pre-order now.

I never believe release dates which is why I never pre-order RC's. I remember the Losi Comp Crawler was delayed for months past its original release date. When they finally did release it, it was plagued by worm gears that were machined backwards. I hope the Five-T does not have similar issues.
Great thing about Losi though, they have superior customer service and they will take care of any problems fast. At least that has been my experience.

Wow it better be good with a $1600 price tag...
The HPI 5SC ss is $900 with no engine or electronics, and it's not 4wd. It is a lot of money in this economy, but it's a lot of truck too. Everything about 1/5 scale is expensive but fuel.

I'll be honest. I dont' like it. Any one of the RCNT artists could blow that away. A canvas that size is amazing to work on.

Eww Jeff Gordon colors, gross!
I love how its a 4piece lid design so you can replace pieces instead of whole. I am going to try and get one of these!

But if you did the math over a few years of racing every weekend you'd actually save money over a nitro truck or buggyThe HPI 5SC ss is $900 with no engine or electronics, and it's not 4wd.

Yep, that's why I have a Baja. Nitro fuel is pretty expensive here too, $52 a gallon.

Wow adam drake is funny he puts a nitro sticker on his 1/5 scale... Novarossi was nitro motors last I seen...maybe its just because he is sponsored by them..:\
