Default REvo...

I can't speak for the other choices but I have a Tmaxx as well and I say the Revo is more durable! It is great for racing and has great support. The mian thing is to find out what parts are easy to get. For axample, Traxxas is everywhere and if you use Ebay then that is not an issue. Have fun!

Make a list of pros and cons, weigh the options, factor in prices...come to a desicion, If oyu buy one and dont like it, you can always sell it on EBAY...

No offense, but if racing is your plan, I'd look anywhere BUT at a savage. With it's high center of gravity, it would get killed on most tracks without some HEAVY modifications.

ok... dude...I own a savage... It is rare for me to roll while turning unless I am running on the road, for a lower COG, all you have to do is get softer shock springs, and maybe (if you are really into being LOW) adjustable -multiple position shock towers....
extensive modification----yea right, the savage can be soft as silk if you want it to be, with softer springs and maybe softer shock oil, or hard as a rock...it is YOUR choice...either way it is tough as nails..
Plus, with the savage, if you go off a ramp crooked, leaning to one side, the savage ALWAYS (and I do mean always---every time) levels itself out alot if not fully... And, the savage is easiest to work on (I am saying from experience), because it dissassembles in sections...and the engine is easy to take out, in about 3 min. and can be back in with new clutch shoes, different clutch bell, or to change the spur gear, etc. in 5 min or less...
