HPI MT2 18SS...I bought a Duratrax Evader and spent a horrible amount of money trying to make it faster more durable....I picked up a used MT218ss for about 200 cdn...in trade value.
It is by far superior to any stadium truck I've driven....you really don't need much as far as upgrades...be carefull what you buy used though being new you will not know what to look for. I suggest you save a little longer and buy new.

well i really like the traxxas jato :D they look like good trucks and there not to expensive... and they can be modified alot :)

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

The Jato is a great truck and it is wicked fast. I dont recommend it for a first nitro. If you were to go the Jato way you wont have to do much in modifications other than better tires and in order to get better tires you have to change the 2.8 wheels to 2.2 wheels. Then RPM a arms and upper chassis brace. You wont have to mod it to be fast. For a beginner I would recommend the MT2, Firestorm, or Nitro rustler 2.5. All goo trucks.

If you have $350 get a GT2. Better truck than the Jato IMO. Especially for the price.

its not my first nitro i got a RTR nitro sport SE...

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

We will forgive you for that[&:] just kidding, but you can do a lot with the sport....................If you already have gotten your feet wet your next car or truck should be a kit so you can really identify with what an RC is all about;)

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

Ive got a firestorm , its a great truck but i wouldnt recommend buying used like i did it took me a week to fix it all up then i went and totaled it into a curb in about an hour of fixing it new is best ! :D (but otherwise I'd recommend it, while its working that is)

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

How many threads asking "Which truck should I get" do we get per week, anyway? Just read through the forum and look at the other threads...

Anyway, GT2.

Hey I think it was only 3 this week[&:]

In the past 6 months theres been enough threads to make a sports jacket[sm=bananahead.gif]

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

If you already have st you should get a mt.

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

DO NOT GET THE JATO first of all it has too much power for a beginner i am a beginner with nitros also and i got the new mt2 18ss and i love it goes fast enough for me it is very durable and it is also a kit so you get the chance to see how it goes together and you can make sure that every thing has locktite on it and the motor is not the best but i find it easy to tune. and if you do get the mt2 the first thing that i did to mine is get about 3 feet of fuel line and put it all from the gas tank to the exhaust and other that you really cant make it any stronger it is a very very durable truck it sort of likes the air but not like a buggy will so if you are interested in the mt2 check out hpi's website or use this link http://www.hpiracing.com/products/en/10445.html

the jato was my first truck and im very happy with it, very durable, wicked fast.the only thing i dont like is the ez start, clutters the chassis and the rubber coating on the plug wire disintigrated

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

guys by the way im not a beginner im intermediate driver...!

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

if you are just bashing go with a jato or firestorm

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

dont you wanna know what tires to get too!![:@] Oh, wait, we get those all the time too! Are you sure your not a beginner? kiddin![:o[:'(]

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

OMG........................I can't take it[sm=lol.gif]seriously

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

is a jato a strong enough car to go to the skate park and do the jumps??

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

With some simple upgrades like RPM a arms, chassis brace and different tires like Moabs or Yokahamas it is plenty strong enough. Its a tough truck and buy doing these small mods it is awsome.

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

get a rc10gt2 factory team and become a champ :)

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

buy mine

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

i have everything you need to start off with check my profile pict. ill give you a nitro rustler many hop ups and a tmaxx the tmaxx needs a motor but you can use the motor off the rusty it takes 5 min. to change motors 300.00 $

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

I have a question.......How does the jato 3.3 do on grass????????

RE: looking for a stadium truck... not much experience
 

i got a Nitro Rustler as my first one and it is a good learner cause you got power and when you get some experience then you dont have to go buy another cause this one is a good beginner and a good intermediate stadium truck
