In 1990, Team Losi came out with their JRX-T. With this, the world of off-road racing exploded. One year later Associated came out with the RC10T. The first of the RC10T series. Now 9 years later the two are still at it. Team Losi released their XXT "CR" Graphite Plus in the summer if 1998. At about the same time Team Associated released their new RC10T3. The G-Plus raised one big question, "Which is better the T3 or the XXT "CR" G-Plus?" Both trucks are extremely popular at the tracks, and both win! With off-road being the most popular in the R/C world, thanks to Losi and Associated, it's no wonder why competition is so fierce!!
