Jammin X2 CRT RTR
My friend is going to get his first nitro rc car, and im helping him out find one. At first, we looked at the Hot Bodies Lighting Stadium, but those are discontined. Then he was looking at the Muggy, and now I seen the Jammin X2 CRT RTR. Since this is his first nitro, would it be easy to maintain and not need any or little hopups to keep running good? Is the Force .28 easy to tune and reliable? I see it is $550 at Tower, minus $60 from the $300+ coupon code. So is it worth about $510? All it needs is fuel. Ive been researching them and they sound very good. Thanks!

that truck is tough and the force 28 is easy to tune and runs pretty good for a RTR.

I did the review on the Jammin' X2 RTR for RC Driver Magazine. I found the truggy to be extremely durable and fitting for an all around truck. The Jammin' is happy on the track. Future upgrades should include replacing the servos and radio.

Greg B, do you happen to have a link to where I can find the review? It is on the newerr, X2 RTR right?
So servos need immediate replacing? Like they wouldnt be fine for just the average joe?
I see some ebay servos, .13 speed, 208 torque for $25, and you get 2 of them! They are ALL metal geared, so are they worth it as an upgrade?

Chris,
The review for the Jammin' X2 RTR is in the new issue of RC Driver. The O'Donnell truggy is on the front cover.
Like I said earlier, the Jammin' is a fine truck. I think anyone would be pleased to own one. The servos will do just fine and I don't think I would replace them just for the sake of doing so. Most factory servos are slow and plastic geared so they usually don't have a long life but I would run them till they die.
