I'd say it's a pretty high chance there will be one, my wife hopes not though

I would say 100%, considering DynoDan, Frank Root and the boys have been testing one in private for a while and have admitted as such on a couple of different forums.

I heard from a reliable source that TLR will have a completely metric electric off-road line-up in the course of approximately one year.

I'm especially looking forward to a 22-based short course truck!

I'll be putting the 22 front wishbones and hubs on my XX4 - they look alot stronger than the standard ones. And come to think of it, I'll be putting the rear 22 wishbones on the XX4 too, so I only have to keep one type in the spares box...... and I'll probably put the 12mm socks on the XX4 too...

See where this is going

The stadium truck seems to be next. I was browsing an online store yesterday, and using the search, I stumbled across TLR0023...

I really hope the 4wd will look similar to an aluminum version of the CAT SX3/XX4.

We will wait for a brand new Losi 4WD off road car (1/10) , cross fingers.

In the meanwhile, my 'old' XX4 world edition is still running on the Italian off road tracks. It's stay in shape actually.

I hope Losi will design another fantastic 4WD.

I'm sure they will!

But guys, do you reckon it will be a belt or shaft driven 4WD from TLR?

Default If there's a new TLR 4WD - what will the baby be named???

It really puzzles me how TLR are able to keep the lid on about a new car. After all, these are Wikileaks times...

If they release another ground breaking car like the 22... I think a lot of racers will jump ship to TLR for both classes! But it wouldn't be ready for the 2011 season I'm guessing. And it's probably wise to make sure the 22 gets a good start first.

If it comes, will it be named "44"? Maybe not, since there's already the B44? Any good guesses? ...

XXXX4 would be over the top
Since the new 2WD is called 22, it seems like the X-naming is history
Any squared annotations would be too much X-Factory
4our?
444?
4?
4x4?

Just can't wait!!!

We know that Jukka Stenari is designing for Losi, we know the world's are in Finland this year on a track he has won on...... I wouldn't be surprised to see the new 4wd at the worlds

since the 22 is for 2 layout, 2 wheel drive, the 4wd might b called the 14 or 24, kinda lame, but just as lame as 22. A cop pulls you over, you get off topic then you ask your passager to pass the 22, you get tazered, no fun, something a little cooler would be nice

There's a name I've thought about several times, and it's the only option that doesn't sound to similar to the others, and I think it's catchy and brilliant. Of course.

Ten-4.

I also have a feeling it will be belt drive, it's in their DNA. And very unlikely 1 belt, so 2 or 3. My guess is something very similar to the CAT SX3. That's a very very good layout in my opinion.

Thx for the info!

I believe if a new Losi 4wd car will be out, its name will be Losi 24 or something like that :-)

I hope TLR team will design a new 1/10 4WD off road car.
