Don't understand why you keep bringing up Traxxas , wow , I'm contemplating nitro or e , my dam battery cabinet is getting complicated so I'm leaning twords nitro ?

 

[RcJunkie13]

Dude take a joke, but yeah you won’t regret the savage

 

[Relic-1]

Who carries these things , really like the side rail design , but those tires gotta go not available yet I take it ?

As of right now, parts are very very slowly becoming available. I don't know if the new savage has hit the shelf yet. They are priced kinda steep imo, but looks like a few improvements have been made to the drive train. Give it time. Depending on how different they are I have a stash of parts and spares from the Last time hpi went under.

[Seandonato73]

[Z.hb71]

[RcJunkie13]

I’ll talk to my friend that owns the lhs I can get it cheaper

 

[Relic-1]

I'm seeing it at a place called hobby recreation , the e varietyis $764.99 , the nitro is $709.99 , I'm seriously contemplating , enterupting my boat plans for this rig , but I agree , I'm waiting for a while

sorry for being late on the last pic. Apparently its been out since this morning.

That body imo is hideous. Not a fan of the looks personally.

 

[Relic-1]

Looks like this Savage new addition isn't available yet ?! I'm ready , where the hell are they ?

 

[blackrain]

If this is true I would definitely jump on the nitro version

 

[Relic-1]

Eeeyyyuuuppp !! I'm getting the nitro version , if the bearocratic bearocricy will let us have it any time soon, can't wait to see this x Max killer

Just so you know the information I got on the 1/7 size was bad. Its a reconfigured and updated 1/8 Savage. I've seen one in person and it looks like they took inspiration from hop up manufacturers and incorporated it in their base design.

 

[Relic-1]

I'm having troubles finding upgrades for this thing , Integy don't count , there pure crap ! Any info on upgrade shocktowers , c hubs , carriers and stuff ? I'll be getting one , but like always I study things before purchase , and it's not looking good

 

[Troopermaniac]

I know they went with a different design on the arms and hubs but I believe they are cross compatible with older savage aluminum parts. TBH The savage platform is not supported by many companies, its been out of production too long. Hopefully we will start to see new hop up options soon but its not looking good.

It's looking like there's two different trucks one sells for $400 and another for $700 , I looked at specs , and there's definitely a size difference , one concern I have is , I'm seeing a plastic exhaust ! What the hell ! For $700 !!

IDK if anyone would find this interesting but savage XL parts became available again on HRP's website yesterday. The F5.9 engine is also now available.

Octane parts and original 4.6 parts became available earlier last month. This is really good news for us who have older savages.

The F5.9 engine is also now available.

i don't think any missed that one
