Welcome kartmarket!

On your question, That is a very hard choice. Both of those buggies are very good. The hyper 8 is the newest of the two and the jammin has been proven in many big races. I have never drove them just watched them. I think you best bet is to study the features of both and pick the one that best fits you style. Both are very good buugies! Good Luck!

Oh welcome to 8th scale!!! :nodding:

You know, the Jammin is nice but the H8 is a great car too.

The H8 has some pretty cool features that the Jammin doesnt. You can adjust the eccentrics (Toe, anti-squat, caster etc), without any extra parts...it uses inserts like the XRay. Like the Jammin, the H8 also comes stock with tons of cnc alum parts, including knuckles and shock towers. For around $425, its a hard deal to beat...It is the NICEST Ofna buggy ever.

There are alot of guys around here switching from every brand of buggy you can think of, to the H8, because its that good....If I were you I would get the H8 and use the money saved on more motor!!!! If you planned on getting a high end mill, upgrade to a JP V-Spec, EB V-Spec or a Hot Mod +5 or something like that...thats what I would do. Big power makes everything more fun;)

Hyper 8 is on of the best priced buggy on the market - $429.99 and that includes a pipe. The X1 is $539.99 and you still have to get a tuned pipe
