I watched one of those Savages at my local dirt track tonight, I think it is as close a monster stadium truck that ive ever seen. That thing keeping up with alot of the XXX-NT and Ass. GT's. It would smoke them in the straight aways but they would catch up in the cornering. They jumped about the same very smooth and had great distance. I think they need to start a nitro Monster class. On a track the Savage rules, I saw a T-Maxx out there too and some Electric trucks were smoking it. Not impressive at all on the track but I guess it was meant for rock climbing and back yard bashing anyway! By they way....the savage had a smaller set of tires on it and was gear faster and the T-Maxx had the regular tires on so I guess that really made the difference. I would of loved to see the T-Maxx with the same tires and gears as the savage.
