Hot Bodies Lightning Stadium 2 Pro RTR takes advantage of recent developments in truggy racing to give you all the advantages that add up to lower lap times and more podium finishes! This RTR truck is completely assembled and ready to go, so you can get off the workbench and out to the track fast!
The chassis of the Lightning Stadium 2 Pro RTR deserves special attention because the base chassis has been upgraded to 7075 aircraft aluminum alloy. This special blend of aluminum is extremely lightweight compared to standard aluminum, plus it's very tough and resistant to bending and scratching. Super-strong front and rear chassis braces provide a huge amount of fore-and-aft stiffness. The rear brace is made from extra thick aluminum, keyed to the chassis for extra strength and attaches to the chassis with two widely spaced machined aluminum mounts. The radio tray and middle bulkhead are made from black anodized aluminum to add extra rigidity. The Lightning Stadium 2 Pro RTR also uses a complete set of hex head screws for reliable and secure hardware. You get strip-free and tough hardware throughout!
The Lightning Stadium 2 Pro RTR drivetrain features a bearing-equipped clutchbell, aluminum flywheel, steel spur gear, front and rear center universal dogbones, spiral cut bevel gears, completely sealed planetary 4-gear diffs, tough steel outdrives, universal dogbones at all four corners, and a full complement of rubber-sealed ball bearings. Bringing everything to a fast and safe stop is a pair of cross-drilled steel disc brakes that are clamped with new one-piece calipers with specialized high-strength pads. The brake bias is independently adjustable to give you the best driving feel when you have to brake. The power delivery of the Lightning Stadium 2 Pro is provided by the same 4WD shaft drivetrain used by the US National Champion Lightning 1/8th scale buggy. Shaft drive is the way to go when it comes to truggy racing, because it provides the most durable and most reliable drivetrain available. In rocky, dirty, wet and sandy conditions, the Lightning Stadium 2 Pro drivetrain cannot be beaten!
The big-block 4.6cc Power House Engine with Jump Starter comes bolted into the chassis with aluminum engine mounts, which in turn are mounted to thick aluminum plates bolted into the chassis. This allows you to remove the engine and replace quickly without having to constantly adjust the gear mesh - just unbolt and go!
To give you extra runtime and more fun on the track, the fuel tank is larger than previous Lightning Stadium trucks: 150cc instead of the 125cc of earlier models, so you can get in more laps before needing to pull into the pits! The internal baffles keep sloshing and fuel bubbles to a minimum and the integrated stone filter protect your engine's delicate internal bits.
