I still talk about mine :)

It'll be in it's second race tonight as the V3 Jato. I'll also be running it in a trophy race at my local track on Sunday.

When the outdoor track was open there were a couple people that ran Jatos, but they were beginners to the hobby and racing so they didn't get much recognition. I expect there will be a couple more on the track for the next outdoor season.

The Jato is proving to be a pretty durable truck so far, too. I was able to break a turnbuckle when I ran into my garage, but I haven't broken another part since. The new track at my local shop has been nicknamed "Carnage" and is breaking vehicles left and right. I actually broke my XXX-4 buggy every time I put a battery pack in it; 4 packs, 4 breaks. The A main started with 11 buggies and finished with 6. I was one of the 5 who broke. The Jato took just as many tumbles and crashes without a single sign of wear. I'm very pleased with the truck's durability.
