Ryan Cavalieri Wins Losi Champs

The 4th annual Team Losi Off-Road Championships was hosted by the Minnreg RC Club in Tampa FL, but it may may as well have been called Cavalieriville. Ryan dominated the event by TQing and
winning all the Factory electric classes with his Trinity-powered Associated rides. Cavalieri's Sirio-equipped RC10GT was the truck to beat in the Factory Nitro Truck class, but he gave up the win to Team Losi's Adam Drake after Adam exploited his Triple-XNT’s quick-change wheel feature to move into the lead with fresh rubber as Ryan’s GT slowed due to worn tires.

Sweet. Good lookin' Associated. I dont know any other company who can come back and do so well after losing Pavidis and Easton. Looks like Tebo and Cavalieri will be cleaning up.

just goes to show AE can rebound from anything. Think about cav. He maybe has only driven his new cars for what, 2 weeks? and he shows up and sweeps the race. Now that shows a true racer right there.

BTW, anyone see the turtle under the straight? I have a pic of it somewhere......

He raced 4 classes! Dang! Thats a ton of racing to do! Obviously he has a set of mechanics to work on his cars for him.

You guys are so naive. It's not the driver, it's the servo tape.

You tape your servos in?! Dang, all that extra weight I've been wasting with screws and blocks.....

btw, I see a 4wd buggy there.. Was he still running a Losi for that? or something different?

I beleive he was running the BJ4 . Since the BJ4 uses alot of AE components, I am not suprised to see a good amount of AE drivers running it.

I think it's assinine of AE not to make a 4wd buggy. Obviously there is a market, and it would only get stronger if someone made something that could hang with the XXX-4 that didn't cost twice as much (like the BJ4).

These 3 posts are teh win
Anyway, you guys are still dunces. Even rookies know its how fast the paintjob is. pppfffttt come on now.


I get a kick out of watch Team Drivers flip flop brands and seeing there results. Always interesting, the brand based commentary following is usually pretty funny too.

A little less time playing Counter-Strike and a little more time interacting with people "IRL".
