I don't know how well of a comparison it would be, Nitro to Electric Savage. Looks like the Savage Flux carries most of it's weight very low between the twin vertical plate chassis.

You could probably take a close look at the suspension, it may not quite have all the adjustibility you would want in a race truck, at least right out of the box. May take the aftermarket to come back with some items to address that perhaps? For instance is there much in the way of camber adjustability? How about shock position?

So, hard to tell if it can match the Revo on the track, but it is probably going to be more competitive than previous Savages.

For sure though, I think it is one fine looking truck.
