already got mine on order at the LHS. cant wait. I really like my b6.4 compared to my b6.3/6.2 so im sure I will love the t6.4 for the same reasons over my t6.2

but iv been around long enough to remember paying sub $200 for a Team Kit. Factory Team kits where a little more $220 - 240-ish.
iv got an RC10T i would like to replace, but im not a racer so that price would hurt. unless like my 10T i can run it for 30 years. anyone still bash stadium trucks or are they just race cars now?

Gas was also 1.39 per gal or less back then.

same here but it is what it is. You also had to sink another 250 in aftermarket upgrades. Most of that stuff is in the box now. 389.00 is right in line with kit prices for the last 5-7 years.

El_Rando-

People must still be bashing Stadium trucks, the Traxxas Rustler is still being sold and AE has never stopped making a 2wd stadium truck. I have the T6.1 (had the T2 and the T4 before that0. I don't bash, but for the durability and drivability of my T6.1 it would be a great basher. Even being Mid-Motor the truck is very stable and drivable. I am sure you would get at least 10 years out of it.

i don't think iv spent anywhere near that much on hop ups for ether my 10T or GT. racers maybe did. all iv ever done is replace what was broken or worn out. can't remember if the trucks came with bearings or not. pretty sure i put the MIP CVD's on them though. and i guess if installing RPM ball cups instead of OEM ball cups is a hop up, or replacing a broken shock tower with a graphite tower is a hop up then iv done more than im giving myself credit for. the shock tower for example wasn't done out of necessity, it was done because that's what my LHS had in stock, it was maybe $4 more but the guy behind the counter claimed it was stronger and i was a rambunctious 12 year old who liked to bash the BMX trails so why not. still don't think iv spent $250 though. although thinking about what iv said in this post $120 sounds reasonable.
im sure if i had this new T6.4 id do the same thing with it.

I did that with my T6.2. basically ran it box stock and over time upgraded worn out parts and replaced broken stuff along the way. I've learned how I use it what hop ups I like so I'm just going to put them on when I build the t6.4. I did the same with my b6.4 just went baller right out the box. All good fun however you do it.

it is crazy how long it takes too get stuff done at horizon

Anyone else notice that it states a body is required to complete...does this mean they are no longer including one? That would be a shame.

didn't notice that. but reading that list i noticed that it'll need wheels and tires. i know tires have been omitted for a while now but sense when does a kit not come with wheels?

and what is mint by "other helpful items'? cause shock fluid is listed. im assuming it comes with shock fluid and that's a reference to other weights for tuning. or am i wrong?

It will more than likely come with a bottle of 30wt for the shocks. I haven't bought a truck kit in a while, but I do know the short course doesn't come with body or wheels.

There's a few companies out there that don't include wheels. It is kinda frustrating how they try to cut costs like that.

TimF 05-18-2023 02:07 PM

My B6.1 did not come with wheels, I knew they were not providing a body on the SCT but that is new that no body on the Stadium Truck. I guess they are now implying that tires/wheels/and bodies are "tuning options" like on 4wd Sedans so pick what works for you??


76jimmy 05-18-2023 03:00 PM

Pretty sure I still have my t6.2 body that came with the kit. I used a JConcepts f2 body. I never liked the AE body. I'd prefer it was reflected in the price but that's the way it goes I guess.
