I had to get a 3.3 Jato to last till my brushless Revo is done. :018:

I can't wait. I miss the sound and the smell of nitro (I did helicopters and a plane for awhile) and this will be my first nitro "land based" ground pounder.

Anyone have one?

one of my friends does and there fun but i still liked my revo more... imo the jato should have been 4 wheel drive that would have made it a better seller.......... well have fun

Appearantly we have a bad influence.. Man, you bought NITRO!! people get banned from this forum for less.. LOL

all i heard is that they are amazingly quick!! it's a matter of putting an engine in a car, that is initially made for a 2-3 times as heavy monstertruck..

lol. Granted it "is" technically a "nitro", but it is doing a couple of things for me.

#1 it allows me to sell it later for cash to get more stuff for the e-revo, because it masks how many trucks I have.
#2 it allows me to pull the motor and throw it on a Revo roller, then sell the rest.
#3 It gives me something to take my frustrations out on, and keep my other stuff nice. Its is a cheap to run beater. I don't wanna abuse my good trucks. And a little 2wd truck is cheaper to repair damage on than a 4wd.

#4, and most important, it has a handfull of people at work psyched up, wanting to see it. One, already, I have managed to infect with the RC virus. :017: He is getting a T-Maxx next week for sure, and after I get my system worked out, wants to change the T into a brushless also.
