RE: OFNA
Yes, OFNA is arguably the best supported brand after HPI, you can find their spares EVERYWHERE. I don't know about customer service, as I don't livein the US, but you won't have any problems with such a popular brand.

RE: OFNA
OK, definitely this then. It's prob the best you can get for the money. - $489

If you can stretch the budget just a little to $515, then DEFINITELY get this.

The Jammin is a race winner in the right hands, it's a very good truck.
Hope that helps.

RE: OFNA
A body can be changed. The jammin is indeed one of the top truggies out there. I don't like the muggy myself, dual steering servos sounds like a waste of money. As for superior to the matrix, I would say yes, but I have not owned either, so it's a pure guess. Personally I would take an OFNA over a CEN product every time.

My buggy is an Xray XB8, WAAAAY outside your budget and not available as an RTR. My monster is a savage X RTR, well inside your budget, but not a truggy.

RE: OFNA
lol! No, I don't get into trouble unless my work is not done. What I do with my time is my business (I'm 30 years old and quite senior here), plus, I am responsible for internet policy at the company, so I'd be pretty surprised if someone managed to catch me.
For the truck you will need... Fuel and batteries. That's it.

RE: OFNA
It's ok, I didn't have to answer if I didn't want to.
looooooool, no I don't think I'm OLD, what I mean is I have a senior POSITION in the company, there aren't many people who can tell me what to do.
Warranties are a difficult subject...if you decide to drive it off a 300ft cliff, and it breaks, whose fault is that, yours? Or the manufacturers? See what I mean? Also, engines do not usually have warranties (apart from defects warranty), don't worry too much, just follow the manual for the engine, and you shouldn't have any problems.
Including the engine and all electronics, my XB8 has well over $1500 in it. It's NOT A TRUGGY, it's a buggy.
You got my reply to your pm? You understood?

RE: OFNA
No I'm not a champion at all, but I do race. I've not won an off road race yet, but my buggy is still quite new, and I am more of an on-road racer anyway. I plan on great success with my touring car this season and next. I'm a pretty good driver, but not the best by a long way.
Since I live in Athens in Greece, Manchester United is over 3000 miles away. However, if you have heard, the Champions league final will be in Greece this year in a few weeks. Tickets are over 2000E on the black market now, I will watch on tv.

RE: OFNA
The only 1/10th touring car I have right now, yes, it's an Xray NT1, again with thousands of dollars in it. It's the real deal, full race spec, best on-road car in the world at the moment. It's silver now though...
