when will it be out

[styleone]

Looks really good. Losi needed a new 2wd Stadium...Wonder if the chassis will be a bit roomier than the 22 buggy? Guessing its going to be a sniff longer so should negate the problems with shoe horning the electrics in....hold on a minute...Atomic Carbon Tardis 22T???? Aviiit!!

I wonder if it will come with rear grip as standard, or if that will be an option like on the buggy

[bzb]

depressive mode on:

oee a nice looking maybe hard to drive losi

truck class is non existing here in holland anymore, and i tink most people learn there lesson bying a new unproven platform
(so why losi why??)


on the other hand: its a new rc car on the market so more to enjoy, they look so nice

[AfroP]

the stadium truck class doesn't exist anywhere outside of the US unfortunately.
I used to run an RC-10T2 back in the day, racing against JRX-T's and XXt's was always a good laugh.

Strangely it has come out at £199.99 RRP which is £15 less (for more - if that makes sense) than the buggy??!!

Going against the grain I wonder if the chassis is longer?

Super long 22 Buggy anyone

Just heard on the RC cast podcast in an interview with one of the developers that the chassis is actually only 2mm longer because the buggy is so long already.

Maybe to spark more interest? Demand and all that.
I would personally love to see the stadium truck meetings coming back, but wouldn't buy one until something does happen, but that wont happen unless people buy them. Kind of a catch 22....

Yep not wrong! I was going off the prices on the TLR site when it had first been put on there, the truck is $10 more on there but the UK price is obviously different.

[Darren Boyle]

Ry, seems strange to me and it is not as if the exchange have moved much since the buggy arrived either..... but hey ho, anything that is "cheaper" than expected is always a good thing I guess

[JohnM]

Maybe since trucks aren't big over here, they need to try and make people buy one, instead of expecting them to get one like they will in the States.

[ryanlownie]

Yep, you can always rely on Losi for decent pricing. You'd usually expect a price to be much much higher than a USA price but Losi stuff isn't so bad really.

I think £200 for the truck is a great price, shame there just isn't much trucking being done over here, I'd get one if there was a class for it!
