A local hobbie shop guy told my buddy to buy a Jammin over a Losi as the jammin parts are alot better? Thicker/bigger. He also says the Losi trucks are more for guys that like to work on their cars alot? I thought Losi trucks were top of the line? I think i need to go see them in action to make up my own mind. I am hoping the local guys are willing to let me pick their brain after the races??
Some motors cannot be upgraded to Bump start, just because they do not make back plates for them, also in most cases you will need different engine mounts so the flywheel sits lower to engage the starter box wheel
