that's a decent saving too, I really like these, but I wonder if I'd end up getting bored?.. love My straight line blasters...but after a while I wanna rag it round a few sharp corners too, what's it like on the bends?

[@MrGoat73]

Available in the UK for £490 ish if folks don't want to import. They should sell a cheaper set without any steering functionality, it's redundant anyway?

Use metal exhaust tape to keep tires from rubbing the paint of the wheel wells.

Yes... definitely

Great idea 🔥👍✌️

If you wanna run the car that low get belted tires🤨 because They are still gonna rub and tear up the tire and eventually the tape. 😤 whoever designed the car needs kicked in the nuts.🤨

[@derricksazrc3411]

Oh my gosh that was hilarious.. I’m happy you finally got your drag car. I finally got mine too , the Traxxas one. Your videos are what made me want to start running with the GPS and get that great Telemetry. Great video.

[@TomleyRC]

Glad you are having some fun with it... so much better with the GPS

[@garykee1]

Awesome video! WOW!!! I just checked my nearest hobby store's website and they are retailing for $519.99 Canadian Dollars plus battery. At least in my part of Canada. Shows you how the pricing would vary from country to country and region to region.

[@TomleyRC]

Yeah that’s cheap for the UK!

[@TomleyRC]

Thank you 🙏

[@workingclassperson2124]

RC nerds RULE!! Been looking at these. Get one eventually

[@nicksantitoro]

This is far from a no prep drag car! You have to buy the car, wait for it to arrive, unbox the car, charge the battery, take the body off to install the battery, put batteries in the transmitter, and take it outside to use in the street!! This is a ton of preparation to get racing. Horizon should be ashamed of themselves. LOL 😂

[@TomleyRC]

Haha... luckily the road was not prepped.. so we good

[@ghpjerry]

That was funny.

[@chrishorst1318]

It means no preppie ppl allowed to drive it. Lol. As a rebellious teen, I hated "preppies". Nice vid as always mate. Personally Im mad its impossible for me to get some german n french rc makers in usa. Especially "Reely" make many rc I want, but its impossible to get in US.

[@theLyzhendricks]

they have one of these at my local hobby shop

[@southernracing2468]

That’s not what they mean by no prep they mean like no prep drag racing where you race the street or backwards on a race track so you start on the unprepared surface

[@Art-zs6sl]

It was a Playstation 5, that kicked off my RC habit. Now I have a Revo, Teton, Trx, VS4, YD-2 SXIII, TA dr10. Glad the scalpers got them all I am having fun outdoors!

Yes, lots of fun, especially when you are able to time them. Makes tuning so much more rewarding

It's now 1 year later (July 10, 2023) and I just bought this car, ready to run, from Amain for $149.99. The Losi 22s roller is only $69.99. I'm really not a drag racing fan so I plan to change wheels and tires and convert mine into a road-race car.

[@toddleavitt3366]

Yes many times to fit in the box the body is mounted lower had to raise my body mounts on a Short course truck or the wheels would rub too

[@goatrock714]

Killer Drag Car! Only seen picture of it on the box at the hobby shop, Way better looking on video! Thanks for showing! And so true about Christmas!

[@goatrock714]

Do the Drag cars steer enough if I want to cruise it around and not go always straight?

[@TomleyRC]

Yes, you can cruise around with them. May need to just raise the body a little first

That is a very good looking car there. Some really nice touches on it.

[@TomleyRC]

Agree 👍

Such a beautiful 69 Camaro. The body detail is amazing. Great price, good electronics and its a Losi. 👍 The only improvement I can see is the rear tail light covers ?

That's nise the best looking drag car off the shelf love the SS looks so good better than all the others out there need it in the UK now wheels look so nise 👍

Loved the scale look when they released it. Sucks we can’t get it in the uk 😢 definitely think it would look better without the stickers 😉

I nearly got the Blue... but thought the Red with stickers was better for e camera. And because it’s got Summit on the side... which I bet Traxxas hate haha

[@kyleranderson5557]

My local store has a brand new one on sale for $250 and I’m so so so tempted but I have no use for it🤣

[@PerformanceFestiva]

If it makes you feel any better, we can't get most of the hot hatches that you lot get. No GR Yaris here, we never got Cossie Fords or any of the good pugs either. We can't even get 3 door Fiestas. I guess they assume everyone who wants to go fast wants a V8. Oh well. Great video! Maybe Horizon will change their mind and send some muscle your way. Cheers!

[@TomleyRC]

Well you can now get e Drag Slash over here… so Losi missing out 😅

[@Dustinielson]

Sweet - do the rear tyres have soggy sidewalls to hook up like a full size car?

[@IstasSB]

I thought "no prep" referred to the track not being prepared or modified before/during the races. How would a car be "no prep"?

[@NBC_NCO]

I believe prolineracing makes a belted drag tire. Might help with wearing the paint. Some people may know them as protoform .

[@TomleyRC]

I’ll take a look

Great passes right out of the stinking box wicked bro!!!

[@ragsixracing]

The Traxxas has a gyro setting to only work during braking. Not sure if it's legal, but it saves the car after the pass.

My grandfather had the opportunity to be part owner of summit racing when they were in the process of getting the company started and refused the offer. If only he hadn't I couldn't imagine the types of life we would of loved. RIP

just because a company went big doesn’t mean you wanted to spend 30 years being partners with the person

[@secureprivacy2080]

I agree on spectrum battery are a little high on price but I have been happy with how well they are holding up. After over 20 cycles I'm still at 1 each cell for resistant most batteries I have tested are more around 15 resistant after couple charges. So to me that has alot to say about why cost are bit higher more mine are the 3s 100c 5000mah plus I do get a avg of 4 mph faster vs my cheaper batteries. I wasn't sure I wanted to buy them when I could get same for maybe 20 less at same rate so wanted try them to date they are still the best I've tried and yes wish they would cost less but to me a cost to benefit seems to be in that there batteries are worth it for now. What's your best battery for price that has same spec that would be compatible???? Keep the great reviews going 👍

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude. Nothing really wrong with the Spektrum ones, I just think cost is a little high for what you get. I use these: chinahobbyline.com/shop/detail/454. CNHL have a good reputation for making decent Lipos.. and price is unbeatable

[@secureprivacy2080]

@@TomleyRC I haven't tried one cnhl . I've tried alot over the years my best budget battery right now are the povway I got from Amazon have been good I have 8 different sizes from 6s 4500 down they do good job and ovonic not bad also I use in my fpv race qauds 6s I also tried a smc it was very good but it wasn't mine so I couldn't test it way I like to and not sure how they are price wise . Keep up with your channel your doing great and hope we see some new break through stuff in the future if not it's still a fun hobby that's safe and better to do then worry about all b.s. in the world

Did you balance the tires/wheels? 2.8 would be really good straight out of the box without a balanced set of tires. That's impressive.

One of the weird issues with rtr. Seems like they try but fail at body and suspension that aren't adjusted for each other. Had issues with some of the rock crawlers. Had to trim up to an 1" around the wheels on the HBI one (got it on sale for $100 at tower hobbies 15 years ago, I think they discontinued it).

Beautiful looking car that its a pity they don't sell here in UK did you get stung with customs tax, as when I bought my typhon 6s from amain when it got to UK I had to pay I think 91 quid in customs tax so it didn't work out any cheaper and had to wait nearly 2 weeks for it. Still my favourite rc though by a long way

[@Repeals]

get the losi 22s and buy the sway bar kit los334021, Im certain you can get even better launchs out of it. I would suggest putting limiters in the front shocks, also a different rate spring up front. Take the rear limiters out and adjust the bump stop to be a little smaller. Some gearing and a different set of tires, easy 2.5 to 2.6 seconds for only a 60 bucks in mods and maybe half hour on the bench!

[@TomleyRC]

I’d choose the Losi

[@just4kicks950]

It's awesome 💯 Losi needs to get there sh*t together & get these out to the people no matter where they're. Glad you was able to get yours, I figured the tires would expand & rub the body. Thanks for the review & Run Cheers 🍻👍
