Default Buggy vs Stadium Truck

just any buggy vs any stadim truck

i dont care which just which ones would be most likely to be faster and stronger (durable) RTR right out of the box, bone stock, nothin added

and im talkin about nitros not electrics cause i may be lookin into buying one or the outher

i have a nitro Team Losi XXX-NT but ive never had or even tested a buggy untill recently when a friend of mine wanted me to tune it for him

I have driven both IMO the buggies are faster, easier to drive and are stronger. They are not really a fair comparison as a 1/8th buggy is a few steps up from a 1/10th stadium truck. For the same money its no contest, buggy all the way.

Definitely a a 4wd buggy would whoop a stadium, even a 2wd buggy would whoop a stadium. Wait for the Associated RC8 to come out, it has the most suspension travel of any buggy ever created like a monster truck, it has the COG of a pan car and it's the lightest 1/8 buggy ever!. DEFINITELY WORTH WAITING FOR!!!

its not true on the whooping at all. stadiums hold their own on the track with buggies, it just takes a lot of skill. buggies are infadct barely faster than the ST's, just easier to drive fast.

just easier to drive fast.
The other way to put this is "superior handling"

No... a normal person would in a wrx would beat a normal person in a formula ford, but the formula ford is FAR quicker. in reality, the difference is its harder to drive at the limits and the rexxy is 4wd. How is a buggy superior handling if a stadium truck is just as quick in the hands of pro's?

if im allowed my 2 cents, i think stadium trucks handle better but buggys are quicker if your refering too 1/10 size. Now if you jump a scale and go to 1/8 scale then buggys rule that arena.

Except a pro driving a stadium truck on a cartain track and the same pro driving a buggy on the same track will lap quicker with the buggy.
