Marc's Take
The Stampede is the one I would look at for more traditional bashing.
In my Bigfoot-versus-Stampede discussion, I liked how the Stampede 4X4 BL-2s paired the shared platform with a body arrangement better suited to the rougher driving I had in mind.
- Think about how you drive. The Stampede body and its retention system appealed to me for jumping and harder use.
- Suspension is a worthwhile direction. GTR shocks and choosing appropriate springs were among the improvements I discussed for refining the feel.
- Make the upgrades work together. I also highlighted steering response and the effect of a center differential as part of a balanced setup.
Optional suspension upgrades discussed: GTR long front shocks for the front suspension; GTR XX-long rear shocks for the rear; select the appropriate springs separately.
My take: an enjoyable monster-truck platform with plenty of room for a purposeful handling build.
