Well, I have the EB4-S3. I have posted several times concerning this buggy so here are the posts. I don't have a jammin buggy to compare it to, but here's my take on the ttr ...

It's a well balanced car. Good design, takes knocks and bumps with stride.

I dont like the way the Jammin drives at all. The only plus with the Jammin is there will be a truggy conversion out soon, the ttr's is cominb in a couple months.

It seemed to me, they drove with good on-and off power steering and the rear easy following ?????????????

Ive been doing some searching on which buggy to get, and i am going to do the jammin, everyo0ne says that its the best bang for the buck. Butt, the thunder tiger seems to have really nice suspension however that works. But for me it came down to parts availability. I know thunder tiger isnt sold everywhere, where as ofna is sold everywhere.

Where do I start?
The EB4 S3 has a new cutting edge delta box chassisdesign, new design front suspension geometry. The front shocks are positioned behind the front shock tower to protect them from impact. A greater range of adjustability for anti-dive/anti-squat. NO E-CLIPS!
The list goes on.....

Thunder tiger parts for the EB4-S3 can be ordered at nitrohouse.com. They're really good wih shipping times. For me, well my LHS has an account with nitrohouse so that helps as well.

If Nitrohouse.com is out of parts for TT, Ultimate Hobbies has a huge assortment too.

the shocks are behind the towers
but I see drivers here crashing a lot on their front towers now
they seem more vurnerable as other brands

ide try and find out which rig is lighter, and wich has cheaper replacement parts. i consider the jammin, kyosho, and mugen to be pretty much on the same level, all 3 win races (o and the xray) but im tryen to find out which is the lightest, and has the best price per part.

a guy at the local track has a thunder tiger and says that his only problem with the buggy it the front end (chassis), i asked why? he said the front chassis digs into dirt on landing, more than other buggies.
