I'm looking to get into 2wd gas stadium truck racing. What is the truck of choice? I know there are a few different ones out there now days. Just dont know the best. Any input is a great help Thanks in advance.

Team Losi AD2..the outdated rc10gt or the Mugen MST1

Nitro evader has a much better motor .18 vs .15 and has aluminum chassis and costs less. I have one tuned for racing and it blows away the losi and rc10gt at track.

parts availability is a big thing, Losi and AE you can find parts all over...mugen you pretty much have to carry your own stock
most places restrict you to a .12 so a .18 is useless and unnecessary for racing

FYI the evader is the old Losi GTX just not 100% the way it was but close

i remember when the evader elextric truck came out it was the xx-t losi truck.
all the way thanks for your input i thought that the .12 was the limit i will have to double check that.. is either of those 2 trucks a favor over the other? i dont want to buy one and then regret it a month later so im trying to do some homework first.
thanks for your help

The AE FTGT holds up better but they drive different. For those serious about racing Losi and AE are the ONLY real choices. Engine size> .12 unless it is an RTR and then you can only use the exact same make and model it came with. Anything larger than a .12 will only help on straits and will cause you to enter a corner too hot and then the .12's will then be on your tail mid corner. And a .12 uses less fuel, I can not see any advantage for larger than .12.
P.S. with the new plastics Losi is using (VLA) breakage has improved
