|
|
Hey Folks,
Well, I couldn't stand it any longer ... got the new Truggy bug and pulled the trigger on a Jammin X2 CRT. Yeah, I know, as Truggies go, it is already out of date. But, couldn't resist the Nitrohouse sale price.
Research shows that it is considerably lighter than the ST and should still be an extremely competitive Truggy. I will still be on the Ofna Forums, but not in the Hypet ST portion ... I will still be glad to answer any questions some may have concerning the ST.
BTW, anybody want to buy a Hyper ST Roller ??? |

Just a short report on my new X2 CRT.
The build went well with adaquate instructions. The Truggy is definatly lighter than the Hyper ST ... When completed, my X2 weighed 9 lbs without fuel and body.
My first race was last Saturday and I came in first in the Main. Our Truggy turn out has been pathetic lately and I was racing against 5 Buggies.
The X2 CRT is not only lighter, it also turns quicker, has a tighter turning radius, and the brakes are outstanding. I like everything about this new Truggy. |

| So guys I jumped ship as well I went with the D8T im still building it but I will give an update this weekend. I am not getting rid of the ST I will still be racing it every now and then and I will keep up with doing mods to it. I will be doing a new chassis for it I am going to make it longer and moving the weight forward as well good luck with your trucks. |

Hey smith,
Yep, I took a hard look at the D8T myself ... but when Nitrohouse put the X2 CRT on sale, that was the clincher. I took a look at Fleabay for parts availability and found the X2 CRT parts more prominent also. Plus, it is tough to beat Ofna/Jammin durability. |

| I was took a hard like at the X2 but I have a hard time getting parts for that truck so I when with the D8T and man what a truck that thing is lighting fast saved at least 3sec a lap off. But it is not near as durable as old faithfull but it is a great truck. |
