We Couldn't Believe Losi's NASCAR Was...

Did Losi just crack the code for a fun RC racer with the NASCAR AWD RTR found here: bit.ly/4bX5hRy The crew over at Losi gave me the opportunity to get a first look of the new car and of course I couldn't turn it down. These new cars look like they’re going to be a blast and since they wear fully licensed NASCAR liveries of popular drivers in the 1:1 series, it amps up the excitement of these cars even more! Beyond a peek at the cars, there’s also a special guest appearance in this video making the drive one of the best I’ve ever had here on the channel. You can’t miss this video! Special thanks to Jeff ‪@413RC‬ for the help shooting video.

[@LosiRacing]

Thanks for your time Greg! We are glad the people can take your word for it and not just ours... see at the next one :)

[@sethsisneros1388]

Take my money please

[@rolexdpracer]

Losi, take my money. These things will make a great series for weekend parking lot racing! I follow both of you guys on KZbin. The collaboration is very cool.👍

[@rcdriver]

We had a blast. I bet there’s going to be a lot of weekend warriors having fun races with these.

[@413RC]

CANNOT WAIT for a class of 5-10 of these racing around a road course. Going to be epic!

[@rcdriver]

Absolutely!

[@413RC]

The overhead clip of you guys stuff in the golf cart at the end is my favorite

[@rcdriver]

@@413RC Well thanks for shooting that clip! 😂

[@LosiRacing]

us neither :)

[@hmisay4976]

I hope they offer the blank bodies. I know the full NASCAR livery is part of the appeal, but they look super clean in the solid colors.

[@morgfarm1]

I can confirm clear bodies are available for all 3 makes. I ordered the Blaney OE car and 2 blank Mustang Darkhorse bodies. Just waiting on the shipment to go. Probably in a month or two's time. Most parts on this car are Grom parts from the Arrma side of Horizon Hobby (who owns both Arrma and Losi). I have the upper suspension arms with adjustable turnbuckles ordered too. If I can figure out the font used for driver names, I'll relay that back also.

[@kbwarriors]

​@@morgfarm1 Hi I'm wondering where you bought the clear bodies?

[@morgfarm1]

@@kbwarriors Through LOSI directly, the clear body shells aren't available from A-Main yet, which is interesting, considering Horizon Hobby owns Arrma, Losi and A-Main.

[@wellcrc-6703]

Glad to see you guys used the FF for the review. Surprised ole cleeter didnt want to be in the video 🤣

[@Super1handed_rc]

Finally some run footage… they do look fun

[@TORX-69]

You and mark are my favorite youtubers

[@guest6423]

The NASCAR tub chassis parts plus your existing Grom buggy could make for a really cool 4wd off-road racer.

[@Jack-wc3ob]

They did exactly what you mentioned under the grom Mojave

[@CCxRC]

Super fun video! The cars look great

[@rcdriver]

Thanks buddy! We’ll have to meet up someday for a mini crawler collab or something.

[@hpiedsavageed7608]

anticipated to get a losi 1/12 nascar! Nascar has been my favorite childhood motorsports for awhile and glad to see losi producing a cupcar!

[@rmarkley79]

Those looked like an absolute blast. I'm more of an offroad enthusiast, but a couple of those out front with a few cones has me thinking 🤔 Thanks Greg!

[@FarmerFpv]

Those are perfect for drinking some beers and doing parking lot oval races with the buddies. I already Pre-Ordered the McDowell, Bass Pro Shops, Menards, and the NAPA version. I'll order the Lucas Oil and the Hendrick versions when they come out. I wish they did the Ross Chastain Busch Light Flannel Nascar Body. It is so sick!

[@Paul__FC]

Please , please , please bring back sunday parking lot racing! If they get it right it will be my first Losi

I got my number 12 Ford mustang on order now 😎👍

[@darkhellhound1989]

Cool that Cleetus lets you use the Freedom Factory

[@rcdriver]

Such a cool facility!

[@Sysiphos]

For the price I'm actually tempted to just order two so I can hand one to people to try and race me

[@LosiRacing]

Bingo!

[@ed0c]

freedom factory baby! did cleetus come down at all? he is big into rc now too

[@demoths]

That suspension looks absolutely dialed out of the box. I was questioning the wisdom of a brushed setup when these were first announced, but after seeing them in action it seems like the right move.

[@3041jmarsh]

Couldn’t have made it 1/10th so we could have had an updated nascar body could they.

[@richardbrown6762]

1/12 scale is great because you can run on a basketball court and the surface is perfect just think about that 😁👍

Almost forgot I have the Bass Pro version pre-ordered until this video lol. They look like they handle great

[@rcdriver]

Awesome! Enjoy it when it arrives.

[@richardbrown6762]

Let's race on Sunday afternoon 😁👍

[@DoubleADay]

I'm not a Nascar guy but I could see where this could be more fun than you could shake a stick at

[@rcdriver]

Yeah, it may have a NASCAR body, but these will be fun going any which way in a parking lot.

[@bustedaw11]

Man this is an awesome collaboration! Wild seeing both you guys in the same vid 😂 Thanks for an awesome vid!

Love it I like your style big respect from London Town

That corner at 5:37 tho! Huggin that corner!!

[@BC-rc]

Got one pre-ordered, can't wait. They looked very durable,double head on with tire

[@rcdriver]

Yeah, that was a full throttle head on with the tire. Bumper, body mounts, arms, all fine.

Lol those chase shots😁👍

what’s the biggest scale tire we could put on it?

[@BellaT-nu4vv]

Is that only me who somehow expects that the cars gonna sound like real Nascar when they start playing lol

[@roadstar499]

They seem to have well engineered chassis...there are no rc racing clubs where i live..if they offer brushless version with all metal gears i would be interested. Nice demo

[@travislohneis224]

Can’t wait for these cars

[@rcdriver]

Pretty awesome platform. So much fun!

[@Krapper515]

Alright... I wasnt gonna get one but if these end up getting super popular and people start meetups for racing, these are gonna be the next big thing in affordable RC racing

I ran the white car and Mark had the silver car.

[@JLary71377]

Just watched the video MSM posted. You guys looked like you had a blast. I'd get the Menards Mustang, or Kyle Bush's #8 cause I'm a fan.

It’s so annoying that these aren’t coming to the UK.

[@joseCalderon1976]

I love how you guys were crashing. 😂. It was amazing to see you both in the same video

There were some good entertaining crashes. We were laughing! 😄

[@NoodlesNJ1]

Just curious is the realeases will have the Grom mounting system and no body clips.

[@FlyiDCG]

I dont normally comment, but I really enjoyed this video, especially starting at 9:53 I wish more RC channels would make action videos like that. I dont know much about Losi, but if these were 1\10 cars Id look into copping one!

[@rcdriver]

Thanks for taking the time to comment! That ending action sequence was fun. But my back still aches from sitting twisted in the golf cart to drive the RC. 😆

[@richardbrown6762]

1/12 scale is almost the same size as 1/10 the cars are 11and one half inches long and 7in wide 😎👍

[@scottbronson9738]

They are very kool!🏁🏁🏁

[@brendanmcg4358]

Gonna need a chevy body for this one but it looks awesome!

[@JT-6s]

Hmmm…. did Losi “adapt” the chassis and make it longer, or did Arrma have a longer chassis all ready to go that they themselves have plans for……perhaps a Grom Infraction?

[@ralphhondaman]

That or I'm going to guess a Grom mojave too.

[@LosiRacing]

it is our design, we want to make sure to solidify that with the logos on the bottom so they weren't confused in the future.

[@paulpadilla5288]

That was awesome.....my 2 favorite youtubers.......an epic video......got 2 on order....😎👍

[@just.jose.youtube]

Bodies look nice!

[@svpracer98]

If you can get gm and the other one to sign off on licensing other bodies, these would be awesome!

[@deezrcz]

So epic! Now we need licensed mini stadium super trucks!! Too bad we will never get that from losi since the founder of traxxas is affiliated with the SST series.

[@whatsintheboxx]

If it would not be from Horizon I would buy one. But no support for a hater company !!!

[@richiebledsoe1006]

Didn't think that dude drove anything but Traxxas lol

[@1peanut]

Everyone always wants to go brushless. They just don't understand how fun brushed motor racing is.

[@ampgp03d]

I’m kinda curious to what the specs are cause I have some old McAllister bodies that fit the old losi mini late model. I like the Camaro body but I want an old school Monte Carlo on it

[@1peanut]

Big question here. Is the shock towers part of the chassis like the other ARRMA GROMS ? also Motor temps after the race ?

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

Fun to see you guys having fun running cars together. Love what both of you bring to the hobby

[@rcdriver]

We had a pretty good time. Thanks for watching!!

[@justsendit99]

It was cool to meet all the KZbinrs at Arrrmagedan. Hope they do it again. A collaboration with other RC companies would be even better. #freedomfactory

[@rcdriver]

I meet a bunch of awesome viewers there. I had a great time. Hope to do it all again next year!

[@rbaldino]

How do these compare to something like a TT-02? They're listed as 1/12 scale; are they legitimately smaller than a 1/10 touring car? I'd consider getting one if I could put some different bodies on it. Thanks for the vid.

[@FlyiDCG]

That's my worry. Greg & Mark are making me want these but I have a lot of 1\10 parts. I still run Tamiya NIMH bats as well. I'm intimidated by newer bats that explode if not charged properly. They look really fun though.

[@ryanlsorrell1983]

I pre ordered the bass pro shop and I plan on getting the Horizon and maybe the Lucas oil when they come out. I got to have at least 3

[@nitrobreath9064]

Well he is already at Arrmaagedon so...😊

[@jaysonchrzanowski9230]

Sorry for my ignorance, but are Losi and Arrma somehow linked? Im an old-school HPI nitro guy just getting back into eletric rc stuff. I have an LMT BogHog that i love bashing. Been wanting an on road rc like the infraction just cant pull the trigger! I really like these nascar rcs and can see myself grabbing one or 2 and doing some upgrades.

[@rcdriver]

All good. Yes they are. Horizon Hobby is the parent company to both Losi and Arrma. So sometimes we see collaborations between their brands. Horizon also has Axial, Spektrum, TLR, ProBoat and several other brands.

[@jaysonchrzanowski9230]

@rcdriver that makes perfect sense. Glad they are using a platform with a bunch of upgrades already available. Wish my only local shop wasn't traxxas HQ!

[@ectorvalle4059]

I hate when a manufacturer only makes one brand of bodies they sell! We as customers want variety! For example, I'm NOT a Ford fan at all yet they keep pushing that brand left and right! If that's the only body available what's the point of buying one? NASCAR is a competition against brands like, Chevrolet, Dodge, Toyota, and ford. It would be more fun racing your buddies with your favorite car manufacturer brand RC car! The sad thing is, Losi, Traxxas, Arrma, etc are all pushing ford!👎🏽🤦🏽🗑️

[@rcdriver]

Easy… they have Chevy and Toyota too. They just had the Ford body samples there which is why I spoke about it specifically.

[@carlcarl6032]

Just like the BL2s with the nice Cadi body, this to is ruined by those friggin body clips. So sick of body clips. How hard can it be to make a simple snap on, Velcro, or magnetic attaching body. Or there are about ten other ways they could do it other than those ugly annoying body clips. Ruins the look of it.

[@gigi9467]

Round and round? Hard pass can they turn? Lol

[@rcdriver]

They’re balanced and steer both directions. We only had two tires and no real spot to turn into a road course.

[@trout7454]

What’s most disappointing is the release date. It’s after summer. Very stupid. I know why they did it. They are trying to see uptake before they place their production order. LAME! Horizon I’m very disappointed in you.

It's not good for professional I see racing too much of body rolling because it doesn't have a Saw Bar... Is good for small children who start in the hobby not professional racing....😅... It's better to buy theme associated or Traxxas
