Quickly looking at the lap times, Lutz had a faster fast lap in the 4x4 sc than anyone else in any class. The only faster laps were him in the nitro buggy and truggy. Thats some serious wheeling in a SC truck.

So I raced with Lutz today. He is a freaking rocket. When there is someone that good driving near me, I apparently tense up, drive like complete crap, Try to get "the edge" and try a completely wrong tire, get super freaking nervous, etc, etc. Just a bad day overall for me, but not for Lutz...
By the way, one of the nicest guys I have ever met.

Damn, thats a nice 1/8e turnout you guys get there, Wish we could get it to take off like that around here Its till struggling a bit, but I love it.

that track has two lines. one for the 1/8 scales and one for the 1/10 scales. so they weren't running on the same lines so you can't really directly compare the times. it pretty obvious he is fast as hell though...

Lutz was impressive. Talked with him for a few about his Durango today. His car was clearly the class of the field not only because the guy can flat out drive,but his car was just that good.Noone was gonna come close.He pedaled IMO just a little.
Glad to hear the Durango guys have an answer to their own growing pains with their truck as he mentioned to me. And yes,he was not faster then 1/8 anything because as mentioned there is a 1/10 line and 1/8 line. He did win gas Buggy pretty easily. Lights out.

I got my Losi Ten-t SCTE 4x4 in March.
I was very impressed the first time I ran it around the track- it handled great, really nice truck.
All that changed when I started jumping doubles and triples!
the first Day I ran the truck I lost one of the front spring seats (no big deal, I found it on the after a short search), later in the pit, I noticed that the truck was leaning to the right- it was the front of the chassis that got bent up at the screw stops for the lower arm-so I bent it back in to place.
On the second weekend that I took the truck out to track I landed short and the rear driveshaft popped out! no big deal- loosened up some screws and put it back in place- the "only" bad part about this was the new arch in the chassis!
The third week everything was good until I landed short again but this time it was game over- front of chassis was bent down, front driveshaft popped out and so did the screws that attach the chassis brace to the front Diff.
I tried to contact Losi several times this past week but my calls were never returned.
It’s been almost three weeks and I have yet to receive the pins for my diffs and I can’t even buy them because like many parts for Ten-t’s they are out of stock.
So after running my Losi Ten-t SCTE 4x4 ONLY three times the truck needs a new chassis and some other parts that are unavailable.
So as long as you buy this truck to cruise around the track and not take any jumps-it’s great!
Just thought I would share my experience with those that are thinking of buying one of these “crafty” little things.

I saw these pics and though someone snuck over and snapped shots of mine....
I cant really blame the truck though.... Weird things happen when you try to turn a triple-double into a quad- single

Even though I've seen a Losi do it consistently there, it seems the lighter Hyper has an advantage if the driver is daring enough to go for it. Seems to just have that extra little power from being lighter that it needs to do it.

the de wheels
ok I bought a set of wheels from the hobby store the DE ones, they didn't fit on the truck very well.they rubbed and locked up when tighten. so I figured I bought the wrong wheels. I went to a main hobbies and ordered the white scte rims on there. then after looking at the part number, I think it was the same part number as the rims I got from the shop. so I guess what I'm asking is if the DE rims are the ones that have to be modded to fit right? any help would be nice please and thankyou.
the part number I ordered are the DER-SCT-10w, not 100 percent sure that the part numbers were the same but if they were I gotta change my order cause I don't trust my self to mod the rims to fit right.

losa 6253 drop screws
http://www.rpphobby.com/ProductDetai...tCode=LOSA6253
this may be a stupid question but here it goes.i took my losi aparts yesterday and noticed the the droop screws and maring my truck.i found the part number from the first page of this forum but i dont understand how these screws are different.my question is do you put them in with the head down so you have a larger contact patch or how do you install them to not hurt the truck frame.thanks
