I am thinking of buying one of these, just wondering if anyone runs one or similar 2WD stadium trucks. It is just for mucking around with mates and playing in the dirt tracks with.
cheers |

nicbeer ive seen the gt go . They are, like all associated cars , awesome
they handle well ,theyre quick ,good for parts and upgradeable.
Do you know what motor is in it??
how much you paying .Tonka has a Kyosho stadium truck talk to him .
He's another gas monkey when are you boys going to learn that elictric is the only way to go.
E_MAXX is the only truck to have to go fast. |

That I do. Love the speed of the Nitro trucks, used to have old Tamiya electirc off road buggies and the like, but not comparable to nitro. Rock Crawling, granted electric is good, but I love the moddig of the engine and bits on the Nitro trucks.
As for mine, it runs great. The tunned pipe and similar hop ups all help it along. |

I also have a Kyosho stadium truck (faster than Tonka's ). They are unbeatable for just thrashin' around with mates and doing stupid things with. The power delivery is a good challenge to master but they rip. sounds like thats what you want it for too. |

Nice work Nic.
Look forward to seeing pics of it hell dirty....
By all reports it's a great truck, hope you like it.
Let us know when you want some scary tyres for it, or maybe Russell will do a wicked paint job for you...

Thinking of getting some paddles and some ProLine holeshots. What prices you got over there for these in a 2.2" size?
Just took it out to the carpark and it goes from fast to oh shit it is quick very fast, and this is out of the box. :o

Nah, you don't want pro line....
Go take a look at www.monstertruckparts.com.au
and check out the range of IMEX 2.2" tyres.
Get yourself some G-Hawgs for all round use or some Truck Pulls for loose shit and mud.
We have a guy in WA called Ryoer Hobbies, you can buy from him.
Cheers
