I've got one!

It arrived to Kyosho Sweden this wednesday, I built it on friday and raced it in a national event on saturday (yesterday).

I've never owned a stadiumtruck before so it was a new experience to drive it. In sweden we don't have an official stadiumtruck class but in one of the summer cups we race it basically without rules other than the car type .

Yesterdays event was one of those. We were only 4 attendees since this is only the second ever event in sweden with the car type allowed. I TQed ahead of this year's Norwegian 2WD champion Roy Gjemble. The car felt really good even though the pack appeared to be way to high in the suspension. I tried to build if with Tebo's winning HRH Shootout setup. I had no problems other than that the steering rod kept getting loose, a stupid build error.

With some work done and proper tires (Kyosho Sweden didn't get any wheels delivered so I only had one pair of rear tires) I could probably have gone a lot faster.. but it the point in bying the car was to have fun and that was really accomplished

In the end I finished second in the event after trashing the rear t-plate in the last final. But all in all, a very good car which is super fun to drive!
