JATO 3.3
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Traxxas Jato
®
3.3 2WD nitro racing
truck. The Jato 3.3 was designed to deliver extreme power for
expert drivers. It is the most powerful Ready-To-Race
®
2WD nitro
truck ever conceived. The incredible TRX
®
3.3 Racing Engine
is bigger, faster, and puts out a whopping 60% more peak
horsepower compared to the legendary, award-winning TRX 2.5.
Relentless horsepower and the lightweight Jato platform combine
for a driving experience that is like no other. The explosive
acceleration and extreme top speed are intended to test the
reflexes of only the most skilled and experienced drivers. The
included wheelie bar is mandatory equipment. The broad linear
power output of TRX 3.3 Racing Engine delivers responsive,
wheels-up power at almost any speed.
Jato 3.3’s super sticky Anaconda
®
tires, installed swaybars, and
65+mph top speed give it real-world street performance that
surpasses on-road only sedans. Plus, Jato isn’t just limited to the
asphalt. The stadium truck ground clearance and class-leading
suspension travel allow you to drive up and over the curb for serious
off-road performance through grass, dirt, gravel, or wherever your
driving adventures take you. From the fully adjustable suspension
to the super-low cg chassis design, unprecedented innovation and
high-end racing features are evident throughout. Whether you’re
racing to win or just having fun, Jato’s superior performance should
deliver an exciting experience.
Jato is made to be a complete package that starts with the highest
level of engineering; a professionally produced DVD to acquaint
you with the starting, racing, and maintenance procedures; and is
equipped stock with the most powerful Ready-To-Race
®
smallblock
engine available. We want you to feel confident that you own the
best performing truck in the market and that it is backed by a team
of professionals who aim to provide the highest level of factory
support possible. Jato is about experiencing total performance and
satisfaction, not just with your truck, but also with the company
that stands behind it.
Thank you again for going with Traxxas. We work hard every day to
assure you the highest level of customer satisfaction possible. We
truly want you to enjoy your new Jato 3.3!
We know you’re excited about getting your new Jato on the road,
but it’s very important that you take some time to read through
the Owners Manual. This manual contains all the necessary set-
up, break-in, tuning, and operating procedures that allow you
to unlock the incredible performance and adjustment potential
that Traxxas engineers designed into Jato. Even if you are an
experienced R/C enthusiast, it’s important to read and follow
the procedures in this manual. Jato contains new technologies
in the engine, suspension, and transmission operation that you
may not be familiar with. Pay particular attention to the fuel and
break-in requirements for the engine. The advanced design of
the TRX 3.3 Racing Engine has a special break-in procedure that
has been developed and proven to produce the best-performing
engine possible. Using traditional or old-fashioned procedures
could reduce engine performance and longevity.
