I've been very lucky in my career in that I have been able to see new products before they're actually announced to the general public. One of the products that was the hardest to not spill the beans on was the Losi XXX-SCT. I had an opportunity to see most of the early CAD drawings in March of 2010 and was thrilled with all the extra details that were going into this project. This wasn't just a stretched XXX-T, quite the contrary. I knew from what I had seen the XXX-SCT was going to be a very special truck and had the potential to be the best-handling Short Course Truck out-of-the-box.
After months of pestering Losi's Keith Whisler, asking him when it would be here, when I could drive one, when I could have one of my very own, I now have one sitting proudly on my workbench. Having seen this truck from the planning stages, the pre-production version and now the production truck, I am totally amped up to be able to hit the track with an XXX-SCT of my very own. Will it live up to my expectations? There's only one way to find out.

Can it fit a traxxas velenion motor and esc?

[HorizonRCdotCom]

@marshallrc79 Yes it can

[Nuclearrc]

I just purchased the roller version and it comes with a 88t spur. I am a basher mainly and I'm putting the Dynamite fuze 6800 kv esc/motor combo in it what pinion would you recommend for this setup? Like I said I'm a basher and not into hearing about the truck only being a racer. Thank you for your time any info will be appreciated! :)

@Nuclearrc I'd start around an 18-tooth pinion and go up or down from there. Keep an eye on the motor temperatures to make sure things aren't getting too hot.
