It was some good times for sure. Any idea how the track got its name? Bears were EXTREMELY prevalent here, people were not! You Do NOT go out at night. Many bear encounters including tripping over one on front porch and one coming in garage while I was changing wife's oil under car. They do not easily scare. Watched numerous cubs grow up. It was near the Ocala National Forest with a heavy population. This particular bear I was filming and approaching to see how close I could get. Was within about 30 feet when she just got up and walked off. I also walked off in house to change pants...lol. not a smart plan!! Not the best video but just wanted to share...thanks!

A group of us started out with 5b's back in 2008/9. All converted to 5T's when they came out and eventually Losi 5's. The 4wd losi's were a dream to drive coming from a 2 wd. platform.

I can't imagine trying to drive my 5B on a track . It's next to impossible to drive the damn thing in a straight line. The only way to go straight is to go really slow. That's against my nature.. At WOT it pretty much does what it want's and tells my to f off .

We had 5b gassers, maybe a little heavier, but yeah, hard to keep it straight , esp. Electric which is stupid fast. Favorite hpi though was my 5T...that truck really helped me learn to drive. Graduating into the 4wd losi was a dream!

Mine is a gasser with an 34cc OBR reedcase motor.

Never had a reed case or any porting done. Always used stock zen 320 and put in a +2mm crank making it a 340 Torq monster for the track!
