yeah, be very carful. Second time out with my jato- I hit a parked trailer tire going about 45-50. ooch it hurt. I did blow one of those tires,that was strange....so don't do donuts on pavment.

That reminds me when I was driving my inferno 1/8 in the school parking lot. I was coming down the parking lot and didn't realize the curb stretching out and bam! Broke the plastic arm on the front end of the buggy, that was my first crash that actually did some damage hehe.

First thing is get some decent off road tires ! The Anacondas are great for the street but suck really bad off road .

Dont try to steer under power , the JATO pushes really bad under power . Though you probably already know this .....

I've got a new JATO 3.3 and i'm looking for good All terrain tires. any suggestions? Moabs or Masher 2K's? Anacondas are ok on the street even in the cold with the wheely bar my will back flip. They do balloon alot though, but i don't think there is much you can do about that. stay on the road with them though becouse absolutly Zero traction in grass or dirt.

All terrain tires can be found at the Pro-Line web site.

I race with my Jato (2.5) and I run Bow-Tie T's in the rear and Edges up front. Dirt Work's and Moab's both do fine on/off road.

Sup All, I also just got my Jato and noticed that the annaconda tires seem to break free of the rims, whats the best glue to use to solve this prob, its not even running at full speed yet!

I got the car friday morning broke in and by Saturday Night I was rebuilding the bulk head... lol like they say 'Brutally Fast' cant argue with that.
