Hi I'm new to the hobby and I dont care what the cost but will a stadium truck be able to go as fast as a sedan car either on or off road??? :)
 
off -road yes because tc's can't go off-road, but in a drag race a tc will easily win given they have close to the same engine
 
Just like the other ones, engines, shocks, gear ratios and what type of surface you run on. I've seen 2WD stadium trucks smoke a few 4WD buggies on a clay track.
 
Umm I'm talking about speed how fast can you get a stadium truck to go NOT RACES.Sry but thx anyway.
 
that's only because buggy's weigh way more than st's...if it's a high traction track then buggy's won't be able to use their 4wd to an advantage
 
I have raced both.
Touring car's on road, will hit speeds from 35 to 65 MPH depending on what you have in it, or what kind of car it is.
Stadium trucks can hit those speeds if set up to, but will not be able to handle the same.
On dirt, you wouldn't be able to handle that kind of speed, so people generaly gear them down for low end power.
 
Ok thx guys but i have a touring car that goes 86 mph(its a CEN) and was wondering if i could get any stadium to go atleast 70 mph not on dirt bmx track but grass.Ok thx guys my question has been answered.
 
The real answer is YES. You can do it, but the end result might be costly and end up being a waste as it will be more difficult to control than your CEN.
