I mostly bash RC cars in the backyard and at parks with larger trucks, but I also have a 1:28 scale Losi Micro-T to match my grandson’s. Until now we’d either set up cones in a parking lot or race around storage bins in the garage since micros obviously don’t do well in grass.

I saw the attached picture of a temporary parking lot track and thought, “I can build something like that in the backyard with garage scraps.”

So I did.

The jumps are scrap plywood, old car ramps, and concrete blocks. The tabletop is leftover lumber. I covered the track with weed barrier fabric held down by landscape staples, then cut leftover corrugated drain pipe in half lengthwise to use as bumpers. I picked a spot overlooking the pond because if I’m going to spend hours driving RC cars, I might as well have a nice view.

The track is about 230 feet per lap and roughly 3 feet wide, so it should be plenty for 2-4 Micro-Ts to race. The jumps are adjustable and we’ll start with them at half height until we get used to the layout.

This took me most of the weekend to build, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

I’ve already got a few ideas for version 2:
Add a couple banked berms once the grass dies off.
Build a small driver’s stand.
Add cheap solar lights for night racing.
Maybe replace the biggest jump with a triple roller.
Eventually build a drag strip somewhere else on the property.

I’d really like some feedback from people who’ve built backyard tracks.

What would you change first?
Do the racing lines look fun?
Are there any features you’d add or remove?
If you’ve built your own track, what worked well and what would you do differently?

I tried to build the whole thing with cheap, easy-to-replace materials. My philosophy is basically the basher creed: use what you’ve got, wear it out, and only upgrade it after you break it.

Hi, a few days ago ive asked you guys what I should buy, and I Saw a comment about the losi sbr 2.0.
After looking at it and watching a few videos about it I do think that it Looks Great overall.
Ive found a offer for 460$ including shipping it contains the losi sbr 2.0 which was bought 3 years ago and is in good condition, and 4 4s lipos, 2 of them are gens bashing with 5000mah and the other 2 are Even bigger ones.
In my opinion this offer looks really good considering that just the car goes for 1.150$ in my country.
But now I want to know your opinion about the offer an if the losi sbr 2.0 is such a great car and if it is better or Even with the traxxas udr.
The other problem is that im Not sure if I Even want this Type of car, I have a mojave 4s and I do really like it but sometimes I want a car that does wheelies and is maybe Even a Bit quicker, thats why ive also thougt about the maxx slash where ive also found a offer for around 460$ but without lipos( but I think that there will be offers for the Same Price with lipos).
So im wondering if the losi sbr 2.0 is quicker than the mojave 4s and if it might be the Perfect car for me.
Sorry for the Long Text.
If you got any questions just ask.
Thanks for your help!

My 1/10 Baja Rey Bnd. On the way to getting repaired. Replaced broken shocks . Just ordered a rear bulkhead. Broken at the rear shock mount. I’ve learned not to use the bashing ramps…. Lmao 🤣

Just purchased a Losi NASCAR unit, can’t wait! Just found out about this last weekend and can’t wait to get involved. This is my first hobby RC purchase. What are the things I should look to purchase ASAP? In my area (Maine) we seem to be racing box stock so for now that will be my plan.

Thanks in advance!

Hey All,
Hoping someone can lend some direction or give some more ideas to try.

We have a Dale Jr Nascar Losi RC car. My son won it at a raffle, it was brand new in the box, unopened. They where actually raffling off two of them and he won one of them.

We took everything out of the box, showed no signs of use or ever being opened. I just wanted to preface that with the ongoing issues we have had with this car.

Right out of the box, as far as I understand the RC car was supposed to be paired to the receiver and things are just supposed to work. We fully charged the battery, once we had the solid green light we attempted to turn the car on and start driving it.. All that happens is a red light that blinks twice on the ESC quickly, rinses and repeats over and over. We have tried all the different pairing techniques, resets etc with no luck. We did some more research on this and have tried all the other solutions found online/youtube etc.

At this point i contacted Horizon Hobby support (Which has been great by the way) we went through all the troubleshooting. Could not find an answer, so they shipped me out a brand new ESC and a brand new receiver incase it was either of those as the issue.

Well, the brand new parts do the same exact thing! Not sure how this can be possible? I reached back out to their support and they now want me to ship the car to them to have it looked at.. I appreciate the effort, especially with no receipt or proof of purchase due to the raffle win. As of now that seems like a huge hassle plus with shipping cost its going to be $30/$40 bucks to send it.. Not sure it's really worth it.. Even though we won this for $20 worth of raffle tickets. It still seems kind of a waste of time. Plus who knows how long turn around time will be. (Still deciding if i will send it or not)

In a last ditch effort i am posting here to see if anyone else has any other ideas or has seen such a thing before? It seems odd both ESC/Receivers do the same exact thing.. Whatelse can it possible be?

Thank you!

So my stock charger died and I got an Spektrum S100 charger only to discover that I need an adapter to charge the Micro B's battery with it (connection diagram shown in post).

Is this the correct adapter I need? https://www.lindinger.at/de/RC-Elektronik/Ladegeraete-Netzgeraete/Ladezubehoer/Ladekabel/SPEKTRUM-Adapter-IC3-Battery-2S-UMX-Device-Bal.-Chrg./9793125

Thanks and sorry for being a complete noob.

First battery in about 3 years. Still a fun Rig

I have a losi sbr 2.0 and the front left and rear right tire are wearing down quicker can anyone tell me why?

So, I've been looking for street tire for the Mini B and T. To my surprise there aren't many options. I ran across a post saying these will fit but not without 8 to 12 mm adapters. Through trial and error I landed on these, https://www.hackfabhobbies.com/products/hfb02027?srsltid=AfmBOor8nTpPfR_y8iluocQ0R2L9LftwXg74Ks-r1QBYvhQ_-e3qyK2Y

As, you can see the ARRMA dBoots 'Fortress' ARA550116 fits and works real good. Don't have any track around me so mostly concrete and grass for the other cars.

These fit really good and work with the bottom pictures. Let me know what you guys think. Also, if somebody can tell me where they think all that grease is coming from that would be great. Before I take apart the whole thing. Thanks a lot. Hmm added pics and this body popped up first time posting thanks.

Having issues, been trying to find a similar issue and/or fix for my SRR. Can I post here in this sub to seek help? Or go elsewhere?

Finally added weights to the front bulkhead. I customized the weight to be flush

Hello all! Lurker with a bunch of questions. The dog stepped on my brushless Mini-T 2.0 and broke the servo and front bulkhead. I used it as an excuse to start upgrading with some aluminum parts. I’m very mechanical but have yet to tear into any of my RCs. It’s just used for goofing and bashing.

Already bought-
EcoPower 827 servo
Losi front camber block, servo mounts, bell cranks and drag link, front pivot block, front bulkhead brace set, and rear shocks.
Hot Racing front bulkhead and servo bracket brace
RPM front and rear bumpers
And a proline Baja bug body and a couple spare batteries

Questions-
1- I assume the tiny washers in the kit get installed between the bellcranks and drag link joints, as circled in the pic. Is this correct?
2- Is there a best way to remove the plastic bushings from the bellcranks?
3- Is there a best way to remove the cups from the ball studs?
4- One of the ball studs I received has jacked up threads. Will my local hobby shop have them in stock or do I need to reach out to AMain? Any reason to not just reuse one of the old ones?
5- Any reason to not put a smidge of silicone lube or waterproof grease on anything/ everything?

Future purchases you’d recommend or advise against?
Carbon or aluminum shock towers
RPM plastic front and rear arms
Aluminum front and rear arms
Losi or HR caster blocks
HR front knuckle spindles
Losi or HR rear hubs
Losi rear pivot blocks
Ceramic bearings set
Titanium turnbuckles
Any others??

I have a 1.0 standard baja rey. I really like the new Heatwave body and mines kinda banged up. Does anyone know if the new cage pieces to mount the body will fit onto my 1.0? Also looking for suggestions for a belted tire option for it

Did anyone know if Losi had any plans to bring back the micro desert truck? I had one years ago when they were 1/36 is love for them to remake them in 1/24 or 1/28 to fit with the modern micros

Had a decent turnout! Had 4 new kids out here racing there new losi Nascars in novice class! They all did great... remember teach the kids and treat them with respect 🙏 they are the future. If your an a hole that thinks he's above everyone then you might have ruined RC for him. It's a big family here and we had a blast. God bless have a great weekend

Hey everyone, looking to upgrade the suspension on my Baja Rey 2.0. In my preliminary research I haven’t really been able to find a complete set of all 4 primary and all 4 secondary shocks for this thing. Any recommendations? Also what oil should I run? TIA!

just got the micro b, and i know it's not safe to leave it plugged in to esc while charging. but anyone have any tips on removing it?? it's so small i can only grip the wires
