RE: what stadium truck
Sorry buddy....but I don't have the "expertise" in Nitro stadium trucks. However, I have heard really good things about the Associated model. You plan to race? Competitively? Bash? That would be the first thing(s) to consider.

RE: what stadium truck
but if you strictly going to bash with it then a nitro rustler will be choice... and also the nitro evader is a great truck to forgot to mention that one.

i agree the rc10gt2 is an awsom truck. also look into the losi xxxNT adam drake 2 edition. that one is no joke either.

RE: what stadium truck
If you are mostly bashing, I would suggest one of the entry level trucks from Traxxas. Parts are readily available in most hobby shops as well.

RE: what stadium truck
i know people here will rebuttle me, but in my opinion the jato 3.3 is not a great truck. its not as durable as other traxxas trucks. it does not handle well on pavement and even worse on dirt, and with all that power it just makes matters worse. jato is pretty good for a street racing it will smoke almost anything out there in a straight line but thats pretty much it. just my 2 cents.

I have a great Losi XXX-NT RTR w/2 engines and a ton of stuff to go with it. Everything you need to run including fuel.
Here is the link, willing to negotiate.

RE: what stadium truck
i strongly agree with this guy, the jato is crap, get an mt2 it has 4wd and handles way better than a 2wd st, i would suggest the mt2 18ss but it is a kit and since you said you want an rtr the mt2 rtr is not as good but is still a fun truck, also i heard that the firestorm 10t is a pretty fun truck and very dependaple but it is 2wd so it all depends on preference
