The Traxxas is a great truck and a lot of fun but for me the Jammin is a better racer (on the track). It handles a little better, is easier to drive fast, etc. One thing about the Traxxas truck if you race you need the center diff, it is night and day regarding the handling with the diff installed.

Shark, I'm holding you responsible. I'm doing the Jammin (or Hyper) over the Slash. I'm kidding, but you convinced me.
The Slash vidz are out now and it looks very "Slash". A fun SC yes, but every vid of the Jammin/Ofna looks like what you said to me....better going faster and you can push it hard!! The Slash looks like it can get "un-planted" pretty quick.
I guess now it comes down to Hyper or Jammin. So let me get this straight...the Hyper comes with your typical Slash style SC tires? Only the Jammin has the oddball size? I'm not disputing the Jammin's tire capabilities here, just size.
and wow!! $52 for a clear Hyper body? Dang!!

Yes the Ofna uses "standard" (Slash sized) wheels/tires and the Jammin uses slightly smaller (more scale) wheels/tires. It can be coverted, but it actually handles pretty good with the smaller tires. I just hope Proline comes out with some replacements. Jammin customer service has been outstanding, they answered all my questions and were very interested in my bumper problem.

I was at the track with shark, I ran the Ofna, we had 2 at first but broke a cvd on one. I think the Jammin and the Ofna are more set up for racing and the Slash is a good all around truck. Both the Jammin, Ofna and Slash have some parts issues (braking) we have all 3 in our group. I broke both front upper a arms at differant times the first day I drove it, I blame the motor, it was to fast
. I was running the 6900 and that thing was FAST!!!!!!!!!!. Had some good crash's. I'm now testing the 5700 motor and I think I like it better than the 6900, at least at the HRH track, the shash was braking some bearing hubs and it likes to high side its self, the Jammin I was told has a glass front bumper. This last past weekend I broke both front body posts, BUT that was due to my kids SC8E (11 LBS) landing on top of me after the triples. And yea the price that Ofna is charging for the body WITH OUT STICKERS is out of control. Looks like I'll be running someone else's body and thats two bad, I like the tall fenders so I can run the body low.
