It's just as brittle as every other stadium truck.

I don't know why you insist on saying the Jato shock towers are weak. 1 Person claimed that and it was a dolt who had the suspension adjusted so tight the shocks didn't move thats why the towers break. I own a Jato since it came out and run it every week and have yet to break a shock tower. Perhaps buy a Jato first then comment on it.

Agreed. Wait until you collide with soemone, or something else at high speeds and then you will realize how durable parts can be.

I agree with Badz.
I'm tired of people posting comments about cars/trucks that they don't own.

Just because somebody doesn't own the truck doesn't meen they don't have experience with it. I personally work at a hobby shop so I have a lot of experience with each truck. You wouldn't beleive how many people come in with Jato problems. Broken top plates, broken servo cases, snapped shock towers, broken arms. It happens. Most STs are built the same way. How much more durable can one be compared to the other? It all depends on the way people drive.

you have a point there, mine has broken two front arms and a rear shock tower because of my stupidity not because of faults in the design

RE: jato is durable
 
i believe you are talking about me when you say about that guy that breaks shock towers, at least if you break something you can go to your lhs and get a new one, i CANT, i dont have a lhs, so i always have to order new stuff, i tightend my shocks, because i wanted to beharder, i cant order better spring everyday.

btw, 46u didnt say anything bad, i dont what is the problem.

I sorry I most of misunderstood you the last time you broke one at the track as I thought you told me you broke them all the time and is why you keep 2 in your pit box.
