Losi 22-4 delivery date early March

[simonrhart]

Looks like the Losi 22-4 is delayed. The TLR website is now talking about early March: http://www.tlracing.com/Products/Def...rodID=TLR03005

Was hoping to get my hands on one end Jan.

well that sucks if its true.

A post today on RCtech from someone who sounds like they are in the know says something a little different. Basically the march date could be for backordered kits as the first have sold out.

http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...thread-87.html

Either way, it sounds like the kits have not left the states yet. or at least the kits destined for shops in the states have not left horizon USA yet.

Good, ordered mine as soon as I saw the picturebut need to get saving if it hit the shop there would be trouble

Yer I also read the US were expecting it very soon

[simonrhart]

amainhobbies expect it in on 27 February. Originally the release date was around 27 January as I was planning on picking one while n the US next week. I guess this won't happen now.

Something is happening around Kyosho 4wd too as the Lazer kit price has been reduced at a couple stores.

Going by what some of the US TLR guys are saying, Horizon has the first batch now, gone through QC checks to be shipped soon, the Febuary dates are for the second batch, anything ordered after Wednesday should be in the second batch.

How many if any of batch one get to the UK who knows.

It looks like every other 4wd car out there. I think this is what is interesting about the new Losi, it's different from everything else.

Different from everything else bar the 17 year old car it's kinda based on

[racingdwarf]

Had to chuckle, was going to go into an in-depth post about the matter, but just couldn't be bothered at the time, you summed it up in a sentence worth also saying that many cars since then have had there suspension geometry compered to that 17 year old car!
simon was using his old xx4 this weekend on the grass track, just behind him was a 2nd time out of the box xray so it can still keep pace with the new stuff in mortals hands

[simonrhart]

Alright smart asses different from anything other than the 17 yr old XX4 !

Pick mine up tmro, didn't plan on it being that early….now were did I put that credit card I had no intention of using

[GrahamH7060]

Mines arrives tomorrow yippee !

[simonrhart]

Saweeet it feels like Christmas again

Here is cheaper: http://www.wheelspinmodels.co.uk/i/2...FeE1Qgod9jEAAw

Not point in buying one here in US. The cheapest I've found it over here is £285 so not worth saving £15 for the hassle and potential customs on my ass.

Simon

[simonrhart]

Ordered, can't wait for it to turn up! not sure when I will get to build it with crazy travel right now.

Simon

[racingdwarf]

got mine, now to find time to build it

[simonrhart]

What will you do with your Lazer?

I will run both side-by-side.

Simon

[racingdwarf]

yer same, I'm happy with the kyosho, I will run the losi side by side for now, I just ordered it as soon as I saw it as the old car was soooo good I have no reason not to like the ZX5 so it stays
