Ok buddy weve heard enough of YOU! Everyone has there own preference yours savage. Others revo. the thing is they are the same when you look at it! First of all ya the savage is bullet proof and can take a hell of a beating but it is also a tank to drive! Now an erevo or revo my not take nowhere near the beating a savage can take but you can bet they handle alot nicer! The thing is Hpi sacraficed handling and drivability for toughness and traxxas sacrificied toughness for handling and drivability! I know you have your perferences but its not nice to see people like you just trash talking a very good truck, sure its not tough but its really nice to drive and it is designed very well!. Like look at it this way the savage is a dying breed for racing. The entire field at almost every race i have been too is made up of revos and erevos. Now im not saying the savage is bad but it dont stand a chance on the track against a revo, and you can't denie that! Its more for bashing all out like i would bet a million dollars that if you were too take a revo and savage out for a day bashing the savage would be the one that would come back unharmed! If i remember hearing right you replaced your 8 smaller shocks for 4 bigger shocks thats just like replacing arms on the revo to make it tougher but instead your replacing your shocks to make it ride nicer! Like geez give it a break, wats the point of bickering on and on and on and on and on and on and on about which truck is better its a waste of time so just forget it and quit stirring everybody up about this topic of which MT is better because it just makes people mad and angry. ike just watch a few years from now Mt's won't be on the market anymore! Truggy's will probably replace them. There a hell of alot tougher then any mt including the savage. It doesn't matter which brand you get either you probably get your money outta of it now just quit with it buddy we get it you like savages and hate revos ok youve proved your point~!

Sam, Myself, and a bunch of others would love to change your opinion of a Savage on the track

Oh I don't disagree with you on the Stock Savage's handling, it is purely a basher.

Go with the Emaxx, much much more fun when it comes to after market support. It can still go brushless with the new version without worrying, and a FLM/Gorilla Maxx will demolish ANY Revo.
Just wanted to let you know that until last year GorillaMaxx made a Revo chassis as well in both aluminum and Carbon fiber. I agree the Emaxx has more aftermarket support then the Revo but there is a reason: The Emaxx needs it where the Revo is already a great truck, easier to work on, better basher/racer, etc. Unless you are willing/able to spend a couple grand on UE hybrid bulks, shocks, 8 spider diff gears, etc the Revo will outperform, outjump, and outbash any Emaxx.
