needed something to entertain myself as i'm getting older and thought that a nice little nitro RC would do it... and it did

got it about a month ago and have already had to replace broken parts

Traxxas Jato 3.3

here it is with the factory wheels
here it is with a set of aftermarket Proline Trenchers... also need to get a set of them for the front to add weight so the front tires stay on the ground more
the most fun i have had in years

To add extra weight to the front use big lead sinkers Love my Revo 3.3

i almost got the Revo but i realized that i needed the speed that i could get from the Jato

first damage...

shredded a rear tire

popped this puppy at a top speed of 74mph left front a-arm and camber link broken and waiting on parts also broke the same a-arm when it hit some concrete and shot up in the air about 8 feet around 2 weeks after the first breakage

I can see you are having a great time with the demolition erm I mean fun running of it

My Revo 3.3 next to my sons DBX

Wow! I'm a girl, but I'm jealous! You have great toys!

after several hours of work completely taking my Jato apart and then putting it back together... my full set of stainless steel screws are done
if you value your RC and want to keep it in better condition, i would recommend the stainless screws upgrade. as i'm sure you can see from the picture, there are a pile of extra screws in the kit i got

for anyone that don't know about the kits, here's a link for mine http://www.rcplanet.com/Stainless_Steel ... tra018.htm

as well as i would recommend the site i got them from which is http://www.rcplanet.com/

one thing i did notice when having it apart was that my axles were starting to twist... means i will probably have to get some new ones soon

Good looking job done there

here's a video of my Jato running. not the best video as i was trying to record it as i was running the car
