Stadium trucks are 2wd and have different shock tower config than a buggy as well as a body that covers the shock towers; they also have similar sized tires front and rear, while buggys usually have exposed shocks and skinnier tires in front and wider tires in the back.. Both are mostly 2WD in 1/10 scale; when you go to 1/8th scale you will find 4WD buggys. Truggys are a cross between a 1/8th scale buggy (4WD) and a 1/10th scale stadium truck. The Losi Ten T and Losi 8ight T are both examples of truggies. The Ten T is a 1/10th scale 4WD nitro truggy while the 8ight T is a 1/8th scale 4wd nitro truggy.

so if it has exposed shocks , 4wd with a center difand no exposed parts (shafts) under the chassi . it would be a TruGGy ? by the way i'm manly talking about a kyosho.or mugen

From the looks of the chassis, yes, that would be a truggy.
