I know how hard it is to walk from a good rib fest when the subject gets boring though ...
I have to 2nd truggies as a more solid platform. As said by TheFcuddy...
They are hands down. Most of you know how much of a savage fan I have been in the past.. Thousands into each build just to make them as strong as I would walk around saying there are/were... Yes, I have strong savages (hurray for me). My flux sucks... Made it all bullet proof and now I cant keep battery boxes on it long enough to get a 2nd jump. Does anything else fail .. nope. So was it worth building a 2K flux? HELL NO ! Is it nice yes .. Do I use it.. sadly, not at all. I still love my nitro but dont use it also. But ill never say it sucks! Takes all I can throw it at and is faster then my flux on 5S.
My buggy I cant wait to drive again. The savage just dont do that for me anymore. Also why you see me on this site again and not living on mine like I used to.
I have seen the light. So you want the strongest monster truck... Sadly, its not a monster at all, its a truggy. Pick one and have at it ... If you were to stay in the MT category well you know my answer, just dont get a flux! expensive pile(expletive) of parts. But.. if you cant listen to reason http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...f/DSC_0717.jpg ill sell it to you for your sole.

I used to raced my Savage, now I run it on a track during my non-race weekend, and I can tell you that my Savage corners like a truggy and can compete with them on a track!

I guess this guy has taken enough beatings from everybody... On the racing subject, I wish I could, but my schedule doesn't match the racing schedules :/ Culinary forces me to work nights and weekends which again doesn't allow me to run against people.

Well, I say it again, I am a nitro guy, and I have only GP cars, I raced my D8 and D8T every month, sometimes twice in a month and I'm running out of place to put my trophies (pardon me for being proud), in my country and overseas.
I used to raced my Savage, now I run it on a track during my non-race weekend, and I can tell you that my Savage corners like a truggy and can compete with them on a track!

Over kill at its best ( I only make fun of myself) tips the scales at 8.5 pounds dry.. I will always love this truck. But the only thing HPI is the plastics .. and a few of them are Revo lol ...

Both of mind do also. I built them both like truggies lol .. I can hang in truugy class with my savage can't TQ and win but can stay in the race. But its sick how much money I have in them to be on this level. I know I didnt have to go as far as I did but I am as impulsive as a 6 year old child and adult enough to admit it !

lol its gone. I sold it for 125 bucks to a new kid, 24.7 savage. He wanted it more then I did.. I have gone to AB mods for my work now. I put the JPracing 528 rossi back in it for now till I get more funds to do a AB mods OS 28 with a belt start boat flywheel mod. Then it will be a play truck again 
. I still have stupid plans for them. Just dont use them as much lol ..
so its said .. I tried to get parts for one and HPI USA said no more.. so I went on ebay and got one more full kit for the future.
the kidd just posted this in HPISF's shout box http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHLWF...eature=related too funny not to share and sort of on topic with tough trucks/savage lol ... best part is hearing the TX get spiked... wait for it !
