i think its a mix between an MT and an ST. oh well, it looks sweet! too expensive for me, though.[&o]

i dont think ST's really are a copy of anything. im pretty sure theyre just made to go fast off road and take turns fast.

Close, it's actually a mix of a Buggy and a MT.

that's a bad *****... depending upon how i like my MT2, it might be my next truck. the 1/8th scale truggies are tough to beat.

the main thing that makes them a trug is it has a center diff instead of a tranny. just like anything else new wait to get one for at least 6mo so they can work the bugs out of it. the hotbodies LSP trug is proven and really is a great deal and tough as nails
