I recently bought a Jato after getting back into rc trucks. I really love it. Like night and day with my old HPI Nitro MT lol.

i have had a jato for 2 years. my advice is dont mod it. untill it breaks. mine is very modded. but as stock it was lots of fun. drving advice learn to tell when it starts to get in trouble early so you dont crash.

So true! Crashes are not gonna be pretty at the speeds these jato's will reach stock or modded. You gotta love  2nd gear high speed wheelies .lol.

NIce car. I have never driven a Jato, but had a TMaxx, Nitro Rustler and a Nitro 4-Tec; all were excellent cars. I am itching to see what the Jato will do against my Losi 10T.</p>
