1/6th Scale Stadium Truck?
I got directed to this site http://www.molzermoweryracing.com/off_road.html and was looking at the FG MT and also noticed that their was a 1/6th Scale Stadium Truck that said it was due early 2005. I contacted Molzer Mowery Racing and they said that the last they heard it was due out in Sept. Does anyone know the dimensions or what kinda power it's gonna have or anything else?

I just went to the Molzer website and tried to checkout with the Stadium Truck and it said that it's gonna cost $1210. Is it just me or are ST usually cheaper than MT?

Probably be out by Christams now. Based on the Monster truck chassis (4 shocks, side rails etc) but coems with front cable brakes as standard. Ususal 26cc Zenoah engine, but geard for speed & with the slick low profiles it should be a superb on-road car. And with some monster tyres will look even better I think. Plus the body will retro fit to all the Marder chassis cars as well.

Surprised it has disc brakes![X(] excellent value for money. In the UK the ST is £35 more than MT. Change over tyres/wheels and gearing and basically swop between MT/ST. btw how much are cable disc brakes? (lower maintenance than hydraulic) might get a set sometime (plus a servo) would I need a mixing computer TX/RX?

So you think it'll be quite a bit cheaper? Man, christmas, I want one now! I think it's awesome looking. What do you guys think the performance will be like?

The wheels are a nice touch but did you notice the holes in the tires!! If there's foam I'd hate to see them get wet. I'll just run my MT tires until they're bald.

SELWA: Could the holes be the indicator of remaining tirecompound??. I don't think they are all the way through the tire.
Like the F1 tires i rela life.

Hey Guys,
Unless the gearing is different on the Stadium truck, all it is, is a MT body with part of the rear bed and back window removed. The wing is from an F1 and wing side mounts and slicks installed. Anyone can turn their MT into a stadium truck with these options. It would take about 15-20 minutes to go from off road to on road. The cost would be about $400-500 to do the conversion oppose to 1200.00 That's just my thoughts.

I think it's going to come with a 17t layshaft pinion gear which should make it around 10-15mph faster than a stock MB or MT. Of course this will make it a little slower off the line, but this will stop the near constant wheelies these things seem to like

Victionone,
Order one, it's only the MT shell, with part of the bed and rear window cut out. Take a close look at it. Look at the post I sent previously and you can see what parts you need.
