Overview
Feed your inner racer with the affordable, ready-to-run Losi® Mini-T™ 2.0 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck in striking red. This is the perfect entry point into competitive RC racing in the UK, combining professional-grade engineering with beginner-friendly features. Whether you're looking for a ready to run RC car that requires no assembly or you're a seasoned enthusiast seeking a compact, race-ready platform, the Mini-T 2.0 delivers exceptional value and performance. With its TLR® race-inspired design based on a ROAR Nationals winner, this brushless RC stadium truck proves that you don't need to spend a fortune or tackle complex builds to experience genuine racing excitement.
Stadium trucks and mini racing have become the perfect match for aspiring RC racers across the UK. Compared to traditional RC buggies, stadium trucks are significantly more forgiving — they're easier to drive, easier to jump, and handle better over bumps and varied track surfaces. The compact 1/18 scale size means this brushless RC model is simpler and more affordable than racing with 1/10 scale and larger vehicles, whilst still delivering competitive performance. The Losi Mini-T 2.0 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck needs few, if any, modifications to be accepted into popular mini racing classes, allowing you to avoid the expense and intimidating learning curve required to compete in larger scales. You won't need to stress over what tyres to run, what electronics are best, or what options to choose when completing your setup — everything you need comes straight out of the box.
Straight out of the box, this ready to run RC truck is completely assembled and ready to hit the track. The efficient 2-in-1 brushless motor and ESC system can achieve speeds around 30 mph, whilst the suspension is inspired by the prestigious TLR® 22 — a vehicle often seen on the podium at competitive 1/10 scale buggy races. The combination of high power with predictable handling enables the Mini-T 2.0 to perform like a high-end machine, agile in the corners, easy to jump, and with plenty of durability to survive crashes and continue to the finish line. When you're not competing at an event, set up a race track on your driveway, in the basement, at a park basketball court, or anywhere with enough space — and let the whole family enjoy Mini-T racing fun.

Technical Performance
The Losi Mini-T 2.0 2WD Brushless Stadium Truck represents a masterclass in affordable racing engineering. Built around a 1.5mm thick 6061-T6 aluminium chassis plate measuring 232mm in length, 179mm in width, and 91mm in height, this compact brushless RC model delivers professional-grade build quality in a size that's easy to transport and race anywhere. The Spektrum 6000Kv brushless motor paired with the integrated 2-in-1 ESC provides maintenance-free performance with a responsive power delivery suited to stadium truck racing. The 18-tooth pinion meshes with a 60-tooth spur gear in the metal-gear transmission, which benefits from full ball bearing support throughout the drivetrain. The vehicle achieves approximately 30 mph top speed, making it competitive in mini racing classes whilst remaining manageable for developing drivers. The independent suspension features oil-filled shocks with 7mm bore diameter, easily adjustable via threaded collars for track-specific tuning. The 2S LiPo battery compatibility (7.4V) is optimised for the motor's power characteristics, and the included 810mAh Smart battery provides practical run times between charges. Tyres measure 1.4 inches in outer diameter with dish-style wheels 1.10 inches wide, mounted at a 5.91-inch track width and 6.30-inch wheelbase. The polycarbonate body features a screen-printed colour scheme in vibrant red, with integral braking provided by the ESC. The Spektrum SX108 steering servo delivers over 40 oz-in of torque with a servo saver for consistent steering feel and protection against collision impact. This water-resistant construction makes it suitable for varied UK racing environments, from indoor carpet tracks to outdoor grass and clay surfaces.
