I got this from a buddy of mine a while back. I have no clue what model it is. All I know is it is a Losi and it is at least 5 years old. Anyone have an idea?

Looks like a JRX-Pro SE with the Hydra Drive added.

Oops, truck tires! Whatever they called the truck version of the same car. Jrxt Pro? The Hydra Drive was still my favorite hop-up of all time.

Doesnt look like it. I found a site with old losi trucks and I cant find any that have the strange hinged front end.

lol!!!

That's just your basic Losi XXT... same as my old XX buggies (like I ran in the youtube video... 74mph)

All the XX cars have that hinged front bulk. This was early enough to also have the hydra-drive on the slipper too. It actually pretty cool... a 1/10 scale torque converter.

Would you happen to have any idea of what year it is?

Umm... it was a mid to late 90's era...for the xx and hydra drive. I really don't know the exact year when it was released... or when the xxx came out. I would rather not just guess.

I can check a few old mags and see if that helps.

EDIT: Looks like the XXXT came out in 2000... and I would guess that the XXT came out around 93-94. The old mags are packed away. :)

I have some great vintage RCCA... late 80s and early 90's. It's pretty cool to look back at how things were. The hobby is so much different now... I kinda miss the old days. Sometiems, lol.

I got into it right when the Revo came out, so I still consider myself a rookie.
