Who will buy?

Who is going to buy a JATO??!!

**Unbreakable207** · 02-17-2005 01:40 PM

I will assume that many people who own a rustler and have had it for some time will buy the jato. Its basically everything the rustler owners would want. And from what I have heard from Slayden racing the jato, this car looks like it can be a serious competitor.

**Heavy Throttle** · 02-17-2005 02:13 PM

Have mine on backorder for about a week or since RCCA had posted about it, I can't wait for the gritty details of this new truck. About what an hour left to go or so...

**blan1508** · 02-17-2005 02:17 PM

I've never owned a Stadium Truck but from what i've read and seen about this one, it looks like i might get into it. I currently have a T-Maxx running a Fantom FR18, and a Picco .21 on the way. Who know i might drop the fantom in the Jato.

**RustlerMan2.5** · 02-17-2005 02:19 PM

I have mine reserved. I have my Nova .12 and Hitec servos ready to drop in. I get the first one to hit my hobby shops shelves. I cant wait!!!

**npede897** · 02-17-2005 02:28 PM

If I had the money and didnt have to buy a car and a dirtbike this year I would look into getting one but I guess my 2,5 pede will have to last me for a while.

**generallee01** · 02-17-2005 02:35 PM

i wanna get one but im a kid so i dont have the money, im gettin a job soon so it might be a couple of months till i get one depending on the price.

**monsterpede13** · 02-17-2005 02:44 PM

i would defentialy get one, but i am a nitro noobie and am starting out with a simple nitro like the sport with the .15 engine. Once i get the hang on if though, I am DEFENTIALY looking into getting this.

**tmaxx4me12** · 02-17-2005 03:13 PM

Im def getting it

**roboman2115** · 02-17-2005 03:44 PM

read my sig

**Maxx2.5 Cruiser** · 02-17-2005 03:51 PM

First I wanna see its reviews. It looks nice but if the reviews arent that good i think Im gonna get me a REVO

**RobH** · 02-17-2005 03:56 PM

I was gonna get it untill I found out it dosent come with the 2.5r and aluminum pipe

**Head-Hunter** · 02-17-2005 04:19 PM

well lets just say i was holding out for all the bugs in the revo to be worked out but now its jato time

**Unbreakable207** · 02-17-2005 04:25 PM

The 2.5r is basically the same as a 2.5 with SLIGHT porting adjustments and a different cooling head. People just think the blue cooling head makes all the difference in the world. As for the pipe, yah its a little disappointing but at least it will help keep the price lower.

**sandboy75** · 02-17-2005 04:46 PM

I just bought a revo and I intend to get it to the spec I want then buy a jato...

If things go well I'll be buying my jato in about 8 to 10 months...

Kinda hard to spend more cash on a jato when my revo is still stock....

**stampede_man51** · 02-17-2005 04:48 PM

would get one if I could! little short on the money side it looks sweet good by losi you are ready to get whipped that thing is gonna kickbutt seriosly

**Kreg67** · 02-17-2005 05:00 PM

The hobby store is going to save me one when they get them(I know the owner realy well)So i am going to get one.I am a rusty lover so the jato is ideal for me.

**delta164** · 02-17-2005 05:27 PM

I'd buy one if I didn't already have four trucks. Looks like it may be time to sell the rustler.

**Kreg67** · 02-17-2005 05:39 PM

I have 8 RC Vechials in total so i think i AM going to do the same and sell one of my rustlers

Kreg

**nrustyracer** · 02-17-2005 05:58 PM

Me

Who knows I might even sell my rustler

**Skullbasher** · 02-17-2005 06:00 PM

I am probably going to get one, ofcourse thats what I said about the Revo when it was coming out...

**leptar** · 02-17-2005 06:12 PM

nope, not I...

**BlueMonster** · 02-17-2005 06:25 PM

I think you can pretty much count me in...

**OneBigMan647** · 02-17-2005 06:33 PM

My brother is probably going to get one. It's gonna be sick. We're thinking of making a name for a team with matching hats. We only race Traxxas and own everyone else.

I get 1st place at my track almost every weekend with my Revo, soon he will do the same with his Jato.

**danmaxman1** · 02-17-2005 07:24 PM

I think it is to expensive for me right now but mabe in the summer when there are lawns to cut

**fire_it_up** · 02-17-2005 07:30 PM

Well, I just bought a Revo. Now I'm going to have to balance my budget between buying hop-ups for the Revo, and buying a Jato. No questionabout it, I must have one!

**N80** · 02-17-2005 07:48 PM

My son and I have just gotten into RC with an E-Rustler. Got it set up for racing against 'real' race trucks. But, not many folks racing electric at the local track. Plenty of nitro.

So, we've been looking at Assoc and Losi nitros. The Nitro Rustler seems fast but not really a racer. And then here comes the JATO.

So I think we'll sit back and see if this truck is a real racer. It sure seems to be. The suspension seems very much race inspired, not the beefy, kinda clunky Rustler components.

We'll wait and watch, but right now I'd say its firmly on top of our list for getting into nitro racing.

**monsterpede13** · 02-17-2005 07:51 PM

I'd say it is a good choice n80. it does look like a very racer inspired truck. i have also been looking into nitro, and this beast looks like the one, except I don;t have the money...

**Maxx2.5Cruiser** · 02-17-2005 08:41 PM

I will be getting one if the reviews are good and all....and I'm sure that they will be!

**blougjc** · 02-17-2005 09:14 PM

Just bought a rusty 3 weeks ago

I think I inspired it's release. No worries though. I love my rusty.

Having aid that I plan to have a JATO in the next 18 to 24 months

**Famous AMOs** · 02-17-2005 09:24 PM

Ive been all electric and thinking of getting a nitro so it may be the Jato, I cant wait to see what us dealers are gonna get for pricing

**savagenomore** · 02-17-2005 09:25 PM

i will be on the list for one

**LosiFromHill986** · 02-17-2005 10:17 PM

I might get one to replace my Tired Rustler.... but the first thing to go is those fugly rims and tires!

What made them put 2.8s on it?

Hmm... I might wait until someone says something about how it holds up....

**Maxx2.5Cruiser** · 02-17-2005 11:05 PM

I defently won't be selling anything for the Jato....it will just be a add on to the collection of Nitros.

**RobH** · 02-17-2005 11:07 PM

I auctually like the rims. I guess it all breaks down to personal preference and tastes

**k-vette** · 02-17-2005 11:25 PM

I've got a fully hopped up rustler now, (almost) and don't need another nitro. I've gotta admit it has everything I personally wanted to see on a new truck. I don't want to spend the money on it and probably won't. We've been thinking of starting to carry traxxas vehicles as a business in the future. I would certainly get one then.

**Maxx2.5Cruiser** · 02-17-2005 11:29 PM

I really like that 5 spoke design. I was going to get a 5 spoke rim for my Sport-Maxx but just went with a dish.

**Lawrence** · 02-18-2005 03:47 AM

How much in U.S ?

**nitroboy2** · 02-22-2005 09:09 PM

My stock rustler is already fast enough for me as it is, so I'm happy with what i got right now. But if i didn't have the Rustler, I would definitely go for the Jato.

Thinking of getting those Jato rims and tires (if they fit), those look pretty cool.
