Most Truggies are 1/8 scale 4wd. Most Stadium Trucks are 1/10 scale 2wd.

Yeah, when I first got back in to RC, I owned a Jato for about 3 weeks, I quickley got tired of missle like parking lot speed passes and shredding/throwing tires, I did not find it good for much else.

can't you make it run rich and slow the top speed off it?

Not all stadium trucks are 2 wheel drive I own a 1/10 scale 4 wheel drive an amex cheetah.

Isn't that why this forum exists? To help the "newbs" questions no matter how silly?!?! Better to come ask questions here and learn from people with experience. I think the truggy question holds weight since, it IS a relativly new vehicle and without knowing any better its a confusing name. I think we should keep the name calling down and encourage more people to ask questions.

Actually the difference is 2wd and 4wd. Stadium trucks are 2 wheel-drive any scale, it comes from the 1:1 racing world, they have an off-road class of trucks, that are rear wheel drive and they do call them stadium trucks. And yes they do look kinda like our RC trucks. Truggies are 4wd, and it doesn't matter the scale they do make 1/10 scale truggies or smaller, though 1/8 scale is the most popular size, and the term truggy is an RC only term.

Oh and as far as the guy saying truggies handle better, I'd beg to differ. My T4 handles any track just as well as any 1/8 scale can, it just takes more skill with a 2wd is all, there more prone to spinning out.

Maybe try Moab(dunno if I spelt that right) tires in a slightly larger size to get more ground clearance for the offfroading and I've heard nothing but good things about those tires. And from what I've read the jato is crazy fast and a nice truck. But again I'm still a newb too so maybe someone else can dispute this idea or give a better one?
