Jammin JP-4 Tuned Pipe Set Categories - Engines, Exhausts, Jammin, Off Road, Products - comments closed
Jammin have introduced the new JP-4 tuned pipe, designed specifically for 1/8 scale off-road racing to improve mid-range to top-end speed without sacrificing bottom-end punch. Like the rest of the JP pipes, the JP-4 features a smash-proof billet stinger and reliable spring coupler design, and is IFMAR legal meaning you can race it at sanctioned events. Available in two different coatings; hard-anodized or nickel plated chrome, the nickel plated finish is practically impervious to stains while both versions include 2 coupler grommets, springs, set screw and a spring-loaded pipe hanger.

Jammin CRT X2 truggy Categories - Cars, Gas Off Road, Jammin, Products - comments closed
RC Car Action managed to get some up close pictures of the new prototype truggy from Jammin, unofficially called the CRT X2. The new car features large bore shocks, will use larger diameter wheels, has the heavy parts of the car more centrally positioned, has a new chassis and other new changes. This car belongs to Chad Bradley and it was his team mate Taylor James, with the same car, that took the truggy class win at last weekends ROAR 1/8th truggy Nationals held at the Farm 2 track in Charlotte, N.Carolina.

Jammin release new Pro .21 & .28 Engines Categories - Engines, Jammin, Off Road, Products - comments closed
Jammin have announced the release of 2 new pro engines, a .21 and a .28 motor. Both engines have been optimised for off road racing and both feature turbo plugs as well as a number of other performance enhancing improvements.
Tweaks to the materials, crank timing, and tolerances all played a part in getting the engine to the high performance edge that Jammin Jay requires. Both engines deliver excellent bottom end power with great top end run out.

Hong Nor / Jammin pivot ball system Categories - Accessories, Hong Nor, Jammin, Off Road, Products - comments closed
Apparently it is a big deal that Hong Nor / Jammin are releasing this optional pivot ball suspension system, seen above, for their X1 CR buggy? Personally i drove gas circuit cars for 17 years, so for me pivot ball suspension is one of the more accepted suspension systems available, but it seems that this is not the case in off road. Our partner sites Buggy-Sport and Neo-Buggy are trembling with excitment with the news of this revelation so please satisfy them by checking out the pictures on their sites here and here.
