Short Course Truck

Realistic 1/10 short-course trucks — think mini Trophy Truck or Pro4. Bigger bodyshells, more grunt (10.5T brushless max), and a chunkier feel on the same off-road circuit as the buggies. Smaller grid than the other classes but consistently competitive — and the shells look properly cool flying through the jumps.
