which nitro ST is the true king? or can there be one truck claimed king? i wanna purchase the best. ive herd bad things about the jato. But what trucks the best in terms of durability, top speed, accleration, handleing? i dont race on tight dirt, we race a large asphalt oval and bash in a large stone cory and such. ignoring price what truck have you had the best luck with? firestorm? jato? MT2 18SS+?

oh come on. no opinions? All those "offical" threads ruin this section of the forum

No there isn't a clear cut 'king' for stadium trucks. King of what?
There is a 'best truck setup for your driving style', but only you can build that.
They all can be built with loads of aftermarket stuff to make them tougher/faster/lighter/quicker....

rc10gt2...xxxnt ad2...those two are top

bry14661

sweet thanks. im just lookin for something that is fun and fast and durable in stock form.

rcdudegermy10

then I'd say your best bet is the rc10gt2, the xxx-nt is more expensive b/c of the radio system...the winning field today is split 50-50 between those two trucks...or If you want to spend less get a rc10gt (used), just as good of a truck...

heres what you do just get a kit from 1 of those trucks and buld it from there. get a nice angine and radio.

bry14661

does that usually total around the same as a RTR?

sfar785

well, it depends on the radio system and engine you buy...it's all about the thickness of your wallet.

bry14661

well ide like to spend as little as possible, but having to spend more wont bother me. ive searched a lot and seen a lot of different motor setups.. what should i drop in for just overall crazy speed and power

rcdudegermy10

O.S. .18tz, or if you have extra get one that is eb modded, or mod it yourself...I'm running an os .12 cv right now, but you have to have a .12 for racing so .....that's why I have it, and I love it so far

Snaut Rocket

i would advise you not to get a 18 tz. it would tere up your tranny. an os 18 will be plenty of power.

bry14661

ok so does anyone have any ball park figures of speed and such i can expect with a setup similar to this.. i like the gt2 with plentiful parts out there. I havent found a 2 speed for it. does it exist?

rclynx

I could do anything for the right amount of money but why???? The GT's are made for the track and one of the best out there so there hasn't been a lot of people wanting to change that. They have the JATO for the crazy speeds if thats what you want. The 18TZ will make your GT about as fast as you could ever want it and thats to fast for a GT[:'(]
