YESSSS back in the like 2001 when I was little my dad got a Losi xxx-nt and that was my introduction to the hobby, and that was before brushless/lipo was really a thing so the nitro stuff was generally the king. love the smell of nitro, love stadium trucks. RIP old school Team Losi, RIP nitro 1/10th scale.

Truggies, brushless power and SCTs killed it. That being said the class was never really as big as it seemed and its original purpose is now redundant. It was really only intended as a feeder class for 1/8th scale nitro buggy, something that 1/8th scale electric buggy does while also being its own major class. Even in their heyday, a lot of clubs only saw a handful of nitro trucks vs at least twice as many 1/8th scale buggies. It's a shame, really. I've spent several hundred to turn an old JATO 2.5 into a track monster and I have nowhere to run it.

It’s been this way since the trucks were introduced almost 30 years ago with the original RC10T, which was pretty much an RC10 buggy with wider suspension arms, custom shock towers, and longer shocks. The wider stance, combined with relative low CG, makes them much easier to drive. If you have a good neutral setup, most of the time, you may just have to change tires based on what the track likes, but you can usually figure that out from what the locals use. The only time I recall ever having to change shock settings was to adjust based on how smooth or rough the track was overall. Wow, it’s crazy to hear some company names after all these years: MÍP, Lunsford... good to see that these companies are still around, particularly Associated. I wasn’t sure how things would pan out after they merged with Thunder Tiger many years ago. I haven’t raced since about ‘98 and only did very little off-road (I mostly raced on-road), but I still remember those days like it was yesterday.

RYAN!! You said it yourself. You said it right in this video. Stadium trucks are more fragile than buggies. Heavier wheels and longer arms make them more fragile and prone to breakage. Yes they are easier to drive for the same reason but they are more fragile. Even if you never crash, the extra weight of the wheels and tires will wear things out FASTER. If you never break a hub or arm it will wear out faster than a boggy because the arms are longer and the wheels and tires are MUCH heavier. Keep this in mind....

My dad introduced me to racing with an original RC10 converted to a stadium truck. He started out racing Tamiya Blackfoot, then the RC10, then the RC10T. We've many times tried getting back into RC, but there is just a lack of tracks and interest around us. We've done 2wd/4wd oval, 4wd road course, truck and buggy. If we started something ourselves, we've discussed limiting classes. Stadium Truck for entry level racing, a "race what you have" class for fun. 4wd buggy, and maybe a 2wd buggy. The idea is to have fewer classes in places with fewer hobbyists. We've also talked about requiring people to mentor someone if they want to race in certain classes. Pair racers with newcomers to help them learn.

That vintage looking body is sweet. I've been racing non competitive and club racing for 10+ years. For me the competitors racing truck are having more fun. Some of the same drivers in buggy are uptight and not having fun in buggy, but once they get on track with the truck they are having a blast. I personally love 2 wheel buggy on dirt but can't really stand it on carpet. But truck is so much more fun on both dirt and carpet. Your statements about the tuning window being larger for the truck are correct, so it then comes down to the driver adapting to the truck to make up for the sub optimal settings.

The must of this tinier elektronics dont really like to get the Plus before having the Minus, its just a bit saver to dont damage the Controller, or some parts.

I’m only a couple minutes in but I want to toss in my opinion. There is no better RC for a first than the traxxas rustler 2wd. I know traxxas gets a lot of hate but hear me out. It’s ridiculously cheap ($160 brushed-$200 with basic batteries and 270 with vxl), has a vast upgrade network, comes with tires with actual grip (but won’t last long) and can really answer the question of if you want a monster truck or buggy, or actually a stadium truck. They have enough blend of the two that it really does make it easy to tell what suits you. If you almost never use the suspension and ground clearance, try a buggy. If you find yourself needing more suspension and ground clearance, go MT. Happy with it? Keep on with STs and SCTs. It’s a respectable Basher but it’s best quality is as a frame of reference.

I think you are spot on and a great ambassador to the sport. I (44) started at 8yrs old with a hornet and a 4 channel futaba due to wanting a glider or plane. I stuck with cars and started racing with the original RC10, RC10L, RC12L. I got out when the RC10T2 was hot. Now my son is about to turn 13 and we have dabbled at home with some RTRs from Dramida to top line Arrma 1/8th stuff. I am in research mode deciding what to get each of us...gotta hit the semi local tracks in surrounding Louisville Ky area before buying. Thanks I hit subscribe when I seen that Kinser shirt last vid!

I think you're probably correct. I just got back into the hobby after a fairly long hiatus. I always drove stadium trucks in the past. I'm running short course 4×4 now. These SCT's really blew up in popularity while I was away. I can't believe how popular 4×4 is. When I first got into the hobby 25 years ago, 4×4 wasn't really anything more than a novelty. Nice video! I forgot to mention that I always went nitro in the past. Now electric is king and I never thought it would be so good!

Stadium Trucks are awesome! I used to love racing my B3 and T3 factory team kits back in the early 2000's. For me though ever since I was a kid I always had a thing for Buggys though. I just like the looks of older buggys. (hate the new cab forward look). But I also love the challenge that buggys present. Stadium trucks are too easy to drive though. They just have too much grip and are in my experience easier to dial in. SC trucks are kinda like buggys to in that they dont have the same grip a stadium truck has and there for are a bit more challenging to drive fast.

Great video first of all, I love stadium trucks my first kit that I started out with is my Kyosho Outlaw Ultima that I've had for now 29 years. That's when the stadium truck class was just growing and its a shame that the 2wd stadium truck class is hardly seen these days in my area, however now we are seeing the 4wd class take off. I'm happy to see trucks making a comeback just as I'm just getting back to the scene so I will be watching to see which manufacturers will be releasing 4wd trucks/ truggies later in the year. I'm aware that Xray has begun shipping theirs and PR Racing has a truggy available as well so the competition should be very fun to watch and definitely help the hobby grow more.

The old school 2wd stadium trucks are a pain to drive. They really teach you how to control your throttle. My first RC was a xxx-nt rtr. I just bash, but in the dirt, it was still a handful. A 1/8th buggy is like driving a high flying tank! Just turn the wheel and gun it! Never drove a 2wd buggy. Guessing they would be a bit more annoying than the 2wd st since the tires are narrower.

What do you think of the trinity Xfactor motor you are running ? Is it better than the old trinity monster ?

All the success that buggies have had over the years has made every other class posible. For me growing up in the late 80's early 90's, buggies are what rc was. If we are talking racing, anything winning at the track has "buggy" aspects to the platform. Trucks are more fun for for sure, because they are more forgiving, but nothing will turn heads and drop jaws like a dialed in buggy. Your right, trucks are funner , but buggies are better, cooler, faster😀

Short course two-wheel drive and two wheel drive stadium trucks are the funnest thing to drive I wish they would make a big comeback I'm seeing nationally the turnouts have been horrible for both these classes our local tracks used to get 25 30 shortcourse trucks every Sunday we're lucky now if we get six

Unfortunately stadium trucks have never been a thing here in my area ( EU ) . I race 1/8 E buggy only because I have to, it's the only class that seems to be popular around here. I still have my Losi XXX-T G+ Matt Francis. Awesome truck even today.

We're trying to bring back Stadium Truck at my local track. Really hoping we can get it to catch on especially after investing money in it. Quite a few guys said they are in though so hopefully we can make it happen.

I love running my t5m when I get the chance, but where I live 2wd Buggy has a huge following, so if I want to race weekly I need to run 17.5 2wd buggy

I was never that into buggies, although I had a gold tub RC10 as one of my first cars. Trucks were the new thing in racing when I got into RC. I liked the bigger wheels, they handled the grass and obstacles around my house better. There were also more kids driving trucks at the track, the older guys stuck to their buggies. My first racing truck was a Traxxas Blue Eagle LS. The battles I had at the track with RC10T's and JrXT's were epic. The early 90's was a great time for RC. A lot of guys around here moved to running buggies and SCT's at events and dropped trucks because all the hype was on the SCT's when they came out. I like the paint job on the Rustler body, looks old school.

That was my racing scene too. My JRX2 was great! Trucks were an outlier, as were 4wd cars. I raced against several gold tub RC10's back in the day!

Back in the day Stadium truck was always the more forgiving vehicle to drive vs buggy currently at my local track they are currently running ST and SC trucks in the same heat (scored independently for any points races) Short course is kinda dying out in sportsman/expert (still plenty in rookie class) and we are starting to see more Stadium Trucks now just not enough to fill a heat typically 3-4 of both during a regular club race 2wd 17.5 buggy is still king of the hill 4wd 13.5 buggy is kinda hit n miss most nights. 🍺😎👍🏽

Ryan your videos are great man. I aim to get my kids and myself into RC and I actually aspire to race at the local club. I did a few years back get a brushed 4x4 Stampede which gave us a taste. But then life got busy. But now I am dying to get my start in club racing. I figured due to lack of $ AND skill I’ll start out with 2wd SCT. Build skills learning how to control 2wd and save pennies for a 4x4 better end brushless SCT like TLR or TA. I really want to learn and race with my son. THEN I find your channel now I aspire to buggy some day but truck for now. Seems you prefer ST over SCT? If you see this and have time could you touch on why? Thanks for putting out such awesome content man. You’ll build this hobby and fill it with addicts the way you’re going now! God bless!!! Jimmy

so... what's the difference between stadium trucks and truggies? also, how much of a difference in performance between a common 4wd e-stadium truck and a Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL? do you think a Rustler 4x4 could be built to be competitive?

Always felt the same way brotha. Trucks are a little less predictable an keep you on your toes, plus they look better IMO. Drop some more nitro videos you need a 1/8 nitro truggy! Your channel is dope keep it up 🤙
