Show us you Stadium Trucks

[Crazy L]

Hey you guys, I thought that, since there is a "show us" thread for the SCs, I would create one for it's down trodden but older brother, the stadium truck. With it's big wheels and it's unrealistic look, it does have a more aggressive stance and arguably, a more race orientated chassis.

So I'll kick off with my el cheapo Team C TC02T, Which so far, Have not had chance to race properly but have done a few laps at my local club.

Running an old Novak GTB, with an SP 6.5 sat in the back. Savox low profile up front. Team C Ali front wishbone mount with brass insert, and Paint by Magoo. That's about it for now.

Lets take a quick look:







Let's keep 'em coming chaps

Can I play?

Here's my mid-old school Losi XXT



Its the top-spec Graphite Plus model, i restored/cleaned it up a year or so a go & now runs a sensorless brushless set-up in it. The shell (Which was NOS from DMS) represents my first attempt at using liquid mask



I haven't raced this truck, but it makes a good fun park runner

what front and rear tyres is everyone running? I was thinking schumacher yellow mini spikes for the rear and stabbered ribs for the front, but seem to struggle with rear end grip mid corner

ta

ps will post pics shortly when shes clean

Lots of racers this time of year are resorting to using the JConcepts Goose Bumps (in Green compound) which are very good in the moist conditions on astro etc...

We found, so far, down at Torch, Losi step pins in red work well, with staggered ribs up front so far. Was lacking in off power corner speed, but modded the ackerman. Much better now

DerbyDan, I had a old XXT, back in the late '90s. Mine too came with the Damn Yankees membership card, as I bought it from DMS, oddly enough. They were THE Losi dealer at the time.

No sorry, I got mine from dinball iirc. $105 which didn't include postage of course, but I went for cheap (read: slow) which took a week and a half. I originally took a look at SMD, considering they're the disty, but JB doe's not do them. Saying that, If you asked him nicely and offered him a curry and a nice bottle of wine, he might get you one especially lol

Wow, this thread has died a death eh.

Just working on a tweak for my TC02T, including lowering the shell as I think it's mounted too high. Also, stumbled on a couple of ali bits from ebay.

Pics of the tweaks coming soon.

I hope it dont die i like this yhread maybe more clubs could do more like silverstone to promote trucks as they are brilliant outside

Need a new shell though the old one doesn't fit now
