Why did you sell your Losi 22?
With the excitement of the launch and the period following, I've noticed a rash of 22s for sale here. Some have been for time or economic reasons, but some have been, for whatever reason, because the seller hadn't got on with the car. As a recent addition to the sport, I'm guessing this is common with new chassis releases - every car has its quirks and nuances.
I myself like the look of the car - beefy yet sleek, lots of potential. I just wanted to know the story behind some of these sales, to get an idea where things didn't go so well?

for sure with all the hype around it's release, everybody expected too much...to be a second quicker with the 22... and many were disappointed. But the differences are not that big between the top cars anymore. I will agree with colmo that I see the car has great potential but needs some tweeks from the stock setup as I feel it is over damped for dirt tracks at least.Other than that the car looks GREAT! I also find it odd to see all these harsh comments and sales... |

There are great differences between chassis of the top marques, in how they handle and what not, I am lucky to own a 22 and a 201X, some tracks the 22 is faster, others the 201X is faster.
With the 22 I bought, the seller couldn't fit their electrics in.

I have also been woundering why there are so many for sale.
I have a 22 im no expert but i think with a few tweaks here and there it is a good car. Fer enough it is rear end twitchy but im sure losi are working on somthing to help prevent this. Personally i think it could/is a good car. |

I love my 22. after 5years of a B4ft that I loved, and 2 months of a cougar, that I hated with a vengance
BUT I run mine rear motor, mid motor looks one hell of a squeeze to fit stuff in, the ones I have seen in mid (just about all) are like any mid motor, great when the grip is all there, but on low traction surfaces setup can be a bit of a nightmare. If you have come from a B4 like me, the 22 in rear motor is a nice change, but in mid
