Default FG STADIUM TRUCK UPDATE

Sorry, mis-translated the info I received. The Stadium truck is the MT chassis. Leopard stx is the FG leopard race with the VS asgard body.


The FG stadium truck bodies should also be released too.

Ok - can you tell me the difference between this and whats avail now in the Leopard STX? -- is it just the TOP?


ORIGINAL: rcnutshobbies

Just got some news on the FG Stadium truck. They are based on the Leopard Race chassis not the Monster truck. It will basically be the leopard with monster tires and the stadium truck bodies.


The stadium truck bodies should also be released too.

Bad info

There is no FG STX , someone is putting a different body on a FG car.

Ths FG stadium truck is based on the Monster Truck Chassis, as per FG.

The tires are currently being changed a bit, causing some production delays.

VS Modelsport markets the Leopard STX, which looks to be a Leopard with a Asgard stadium truck body.

Monster truck/ marder/ beetle are all based on the same chassis. The differences are:

Monster truck to marder - side plates, different spur and pinion gear, complete front arms, front shock tower 8 shocks(others have 4), monster tires, MT body, body mount positions on roll cage and front support bars.

Monster Beetle differences from marder:
monster tires, different spur and pinion gear, roll cage body mounts, monster beetle body, front body mounts and shock tower

thats what i meant, they are all the same so basicaly same length/width/track
were as the leopard is longer (and a little wider ?) so is handles better, if the stadium truck is a diffrent low slung shell, and large slick wheels WHATS THE POINT

i didn't think there was any difference between the marder, MB and MT compared with the Leopard, i thought the componants were just higher spec compared to the rest.
