the best jumping buggy ive seen is any 4wd racing buggy.xx4,mr4bc
are some good ones. theyhit the jump and just push there self flying off better then 2wd kits.i havent seen an event on the longest jump yt but there might be,but i think most racers dont wanna trash there cars.

I think the best jump truck is the Traxxas Stampede. Best buggie I'm not so sure about.

JPS conversion Clod. Nothing I have jumps as level and lands with as much authority as this beast.

The B3 and the T3 both land nice and solidly. They also react very good to in air throttle input. but that just is what I think. If you want to enter any jumping events I dont think that they have any sancioned group just for jumping, but if you want to see insane jumps get the xxx main video! http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

I just got the XXX and it jumps great. You can adjust the Rear Anti squat by removing two shims below the rear pivot block to get more air off jumps and less side bite. Stock is 0 degrees and without the shims is 2 degrees. The xxx is very stable through out the whole jump

i think the traxxas stampede is the best because me and my friend where jumping and got major air and landed perfect every time.

The Stampede gets major hang time and responds well to in air thottle. It also lives through missed landings pretty well.

if you want the best jumpers that can double as race cars, and the most forgiving ones, then check out the xxx and xxxt. they land perfect even if they are on odd angles and everything.

the hpi rs4 mt, jumps, but its boring, and you have to land it right, i actually think my xxx jumps better then it. also the hpi is very hard to work on, and is a piece of crap.

the emaxx is a little hard to jump, you need to be in second gear or else it nose dives, i have already broken a ton of parts due to jumping, my xxx and xxxt have been my favorite jumpers.

I think trucks jump better than buggys because they are usually more stabble. I have T3 and I jump it all the time. It is very stable and takes the jumps very well. I am thinking of getting a buggy and am looking at the XX4 and the XXX. 4wd vehicles jump well also.
