Hyper PCR Pro or Jammin X1-CR?

Im stuck in a decision and just looking for a push to get off the fence. I traded last year for a really sweet Hyper PCR Pro from Imbroken and have not really ran it much just here and there only around the house. I also bought me a Jammin and I am about done building it. I plan to start going to some local tracks and I only need one buggy and since I have not driven either on the dirt I dont know which one to keep.
I bought a Hottinger Modded P5 to go in either one for the mill.

Any suggestions?

The PCR Pro IMO is a damn strong buggy and if it wasn;t changed the rear brace screw was changed in favor for a hinge pin. One of the best mods for the PCR Pro.

I have never driven but seen it run. Looks cool but the driver makes the car as I am sure you know.

I would go with the PCR as well, the thing is a tank and you will find parts much easier also. Hey JON2 I just did that mod also to my PCR with the lunsford hingepin and after a day of bashing it still bent!!, I couldnt believe it.

Hmmm. I never bent mine but then again. I actually landed mainly on the tires and other times cartwheeling.

I think he is planning on using the last one he got as a parts car since it has so many things wrong with it.

Misc Buggies

Here's a quick video that has a couple of jammin' buggies in it. After seeing these guys place 2nd and 4th in the state race, I was very impressed with Jammin'

Jammin is the way to go for now. Ofna is supposed to have a Hyper 8 in the works, but who knows when that will make it out, it was supposed to debut late last year.

i would say the jammin is just as durable from what ive seen, though its more nimble.

Hey, Imbroken, did you paint that body with the SpzSticks chrome paint? And what is that other color? Who makes it?

Also, if you use the OFNA flat pack battery adapter you can get your CG closer to the middle of the chassis.
