 OFNA has done it again, releasing the best improvement yet to the ULTRA 1/8 scale series. How do you make the best selling 1/8 buggy better? Well, make it closer to a Pro level buggy by changing to C-Hub suspension and adding 13mm shocks & Hi-down Force wing. Plus we also upgraded the body styling added "True-lites" dish wheels and racing tires.

First Limited Shipment of Jammin CRT.5 Mini's are Shipping!
  OFNA announced today, "that the first shipment of the Jammin CRT.5 Mini Pro kits are shipping Friday to a few selected dealers". This small shipment is a few kits that OFNA could get out of Taiwan before the Chinese New Year nine day holiday. OFNA reports, " It is just bad luck that we missed our January delivery date and also got short changed in February". But in March, OFNA promises to start shipment again by March 11th until the large backorder list is filled. The RCDeal.com auction Mini winner of the "First Production Kit in the World" will get his kits this week also. Remember this kit is signed and numbered as 0001.
Two Mini's have been running in the SoCal area tracks for a few weeks now, with many thinking the project has been delayed, well think again! The kit is strong and super fast. In fact this weekend, J. Anderson drove his test Mini at Revelation Raceway and took the A-main win with TQ in the 1:10 nitro truck class. I am sure there is more to say, but I'll stop now.

New Jammin X-1 CR Buggy Pivot Ball Conversion Kit
|  | Part #40624 Retail $89.95 OFNA/Jammin is now introducing a new suspension option for the Jammin X-1CR Buggy. This conversion kit has been tested by Jay Halsey, Chad Bradley and Taylor James, all of whom have given their endorsement and recommendation. They all attest to the fact that this upgrade gives the car more steering in and out of the corners and greatly improves stability going through the bumps. This suspension features pivot ball dust covers and plugs as well as pro style aluminum pivot balls. | 
In the pictures above you can see the pivot ball nylon knuckles with dust covers to protect the PBS from dirt and grit damaging the inside suspension surface. This protection gives more life to these moving suspension parts. In our testing we found this upgraded suspension choice proved to be a great benefit in most racing conditions.

Jammin Announces Two new Pro .21 & .28 Engines
 Jammin Products is proud to introduce two new engines. A .21 and a .28 size engine. Jammin Jay himself did the R&D on these engines and paid special attention to the details that are so important for off-road R/C racing. Such as durability, ease of tuning, and driveabilty. 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. Both include Turbo Plug type heads. While the .21 is tuned for the buggies, testing proved it to be more than capable in the truggy class. The .28 is all out big block performance but still very easy to drive and gets surprisingly good fuel mileage. Turbo Glow plug included. Made in Italy
.21 Jammin Engine = Part # 51250
.28 Jammin Engine = Part # 51251
