GO PHEND!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not anti ST by any means. But I'd hardly say they're the "Real Trucks". Shortcourse trucks resemble full 1:1 sized trucks that are raced in REAL life dating back to the Heavy Metal classes back in the 80's (Walker Evans anybody?). Stadium trucks, realistically should have been called 1/10 Truggy's like their 1/8th scale counterparts. Infact, you want to see what a 1:1 stadium truck looks like...Well, it looks like a Shortcourse truck only they used "mini trucks like what would now be a Tacoma or Nissan Frontier (back then they were just Toyota and Nissan pick up trucks since there weren't any full size Tundra or Titan trucks) instead of fullsize trucks
I'm not trying to take away from the excitement of the 22T. It looks to be a great platform and will hopefully bring the class back and hopefully not to the detriment of shortcourse. Because Shortcourse have really fun classes as well.
