The Team Losi Racing® 22™ 5.0 SR buggy picks up right where the 22 4.0 SR left off and is the next evolution of the 22 2WD buggy platform. Optimizing the 22 5.0 SR specifically for dirt and clay tracks in the spec racing classes, the setup window has been narrowed and performance maximized. The revised SR driveline with molded composite outdrives and aluminum saver rings, along with ultra-durable small diameter steel drive shafts, provides the 22 5.0 an ultralight driveline for maximum torque and speed.
Included is TLR's innovative and maximized Direct Drive System (DDS) with an ultra-light and short layshaft, aluminum spur gear hubs, and a 72T molded spur gear. Turning focus to the front suspension, the TLR® team found a way to make the 22 5.0 significantly easier to drive while still giving the car more mid-corning steering. Increasing the length of the steering bell cranks and spindle arms, along with changes to the Ackermann angle give the 22 5.0 a significantly smoother steering feel, especially off-center and high speed, while increase low-speed steering for tighter tracks and 180's.
The 22 5.0 takes the 22 platform to the next level, and it will take you to the top of the podium!
Improved SR Drivetrain
The innovative 22 SR differential with the aluminum diff assembly and composite outdrives provide the easiest to maintain and lightest diff system. For the 5.0 SR, we've replaced the composite outdrive rings with longer CNC machined aluminum rings to improve the outdrive durability for today's ultra-high grip clay tracks. Still focused on durability, the 22 5.0 SR has also moved to use the steel SR driveshafts, which have a smaller diameter than the stock steel driveshafts for weight savings, but they offer a substantial increase in durability over the aluminum SR driveshaft option.
Direct Drive System
Included is TLR's innovative and maximized Direct Drive System (DDS) with an ultra-light and short layshaft, aluminum spur gear hubs, and a 72T molded spur gear. By eliminating the slipper assembly, several grams of rotating mass are removed, and there is no power lost with the motor driving the spur but not the transmission. You will feel the extra snap and torque when exiting turns and accelerating over hard to clear jumps.
