| Losi super petition
I don't know about the rest of you but i would like to see a shafty super crawler from losi, i was wanting to try and start a petition for losi to build a super crawler, if enough people are interested mabey losi will make one. It worked for the micro, it only seems right for them to have a crawler for every class and i just want a shafty super that has parts that will be avalible. I know this is the 2.2 thread but there is no other area that was losi specific for supers. Feel free to post feelings or thoughts... Nic |

Good luck with your petition. Super class isn't very big or particularly popular, at least not in these parts. In order for Losi to get involved, they need to see big numbers.

Would be cool...but never happen. Plus they don't build anything over one pension on one site. But would be cool to see one and how they would make it?? Worm gears? |

Build one out of Losi parts like the Traxxas guys do with T-Maxx parts. That might get thier attention. It'd be nice to see, but like the others, I doubt it'd happen unless supers gain thier popularity back. |

I don't think it will happen, but mabey it will, they may already be working on one you know how losi is secretive about projects. It would be cool if rich or someone from losi read this. I understand that the chances of anything happening are slim to none but you never know if enough people are interested it may happen, they said they would never build a micro in an email reply. Thanks for you honesty but we might as well try, we have nothing to lose nic |

having another option for super is always a plus. I also think that a big reason that super isnt more popular is that their isnt a economical starting point for the class....having a ARTR Losi Super for maybe $100 more than the LCC would be an instant hit. Basically make a LCC at 17.5 wb and 13 inch width with 40 series wheel and tire, and add 2 MOA axle brackets to the kit if ya want to go that way. Even if this isnt a option I think a Super sized tire in losi blue compound would sell faster than they could make them. |

I'm so sick of hearing "I don't think this will happen" that is lame, and if it doesn't happen that attitude is why. If this is a petition, I think the proper response would be "yes I would buy one" or "no I would not buy one." The only thing that is killing supers is that attitude. |

| Losi super petition
Got my vote. Ive been hoping for a good super class shafty for ages. Make the wheelbase adjustable between 16" and 18" to fit within the class rules.

Shafty super = FAIL. If your going to build a super kit in needs to MOA. Do I think it will happen, nope. Would I buy one, yeah. I can see the mini's CVD pins really hurting in those axles though |

Its not lame to think something won't happen, its called realism. I'd like to start a petition to fly Carrottop to the moon and leave him there. I'm sure lots of people would sign, but the majority of them would agree that it probably won't happen. super shafty ftw! | |
