Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / March 20071/12 ofna crt.5 mini truggy
http://www.jamminproducts.com/CRT5.html just found this one..hadn't seen it yet > http://www.jamminproducts.com/CRT5.html > > just found this one..hadn't seen it yet Nice looking truggy, but why would Jammin design and build a new 1/12 scale truggy unless they're trying to introduce a new scale racing class to the world. Otherwise its only really good for bashing. Cheers >> http://www.jamminproducts.com/CRT5.html >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Cheers You took the words right outta my mouth bud. There are a pile of 1/18 and 1/16 nitros out there.......................but 1/12? What the hell? Cool looking truggy but c'mon OFNA! Doc Tower hobbies has it for $419.00 That alot for a mini with no motor or radio. I wonder how much the RTR will be. Hopefully not alot more. I will stick with my Schumacher Rascal RTR with .18 motor only 2wd but runs on a track as well as 1/10 scale truck for only $320.00 Rob http://community.webtv.net/XXROB/DCoffroadRCpark > Tower hobbies has it for $419.00 That alot for a mini with no motor or > radio.

Does it hook up decent in hard-packed blue-groove dirt? Doc For that price, you could almost get a real 1/8 scale truggy and have other people to race with. Or, you could get a GT2 and live with 2WD for 1/3 the price and also have other people to race with. I wonder what they were thinking.

I think 1/12 is a great size for a new RC. Not TOO small but still compact. It makes for another option for those who already have other scale models. Ofna is introducing new scale classes like this one, and like the 1/7th scale http://ofna.com/dm1-pro.html. Figure on prices dropping as the items "newness" wears off. I imagine eventually all the scale sizes will be covered before it's over and done with. > For that price, you could almost get a real 1/8 scale truggy and have > other people to race with.
