Not necessarily for racing (just for kicks)... set up in a Revo...a O.S. VZ-B or a Picco .26 max??

seen it done. Some guy was trying to race his vzb revo at leisure once but he never could get the engine to tune right. People are running the .30 engines in there revo's without problems.

RC Dad, I hate to say it , but I saw the ultimate Savage piloted by the HPI pro sponsored guy racing this weekend. I lapped him twice in practice. The truck just plain sucks for racing. It has a suspension like a tank. He was a total hazzard on the track. I'll give him an A for effort though.
As for the Revos with huge motors, they just don't work. When are people going to realize that there's a point where you can't get the HP to the ground?

Well...like I said, not for racing. As most of my R/C's are right now, I look for that stupid fast, over the top, can't control it combo. It's all good fun and there is something to say for the WOW factor when people see what you're running.

Hmmm Bruce thats funny cuz i think i know a guy ( Yeah me ) with a savage that broke it off too you a couple of times this summer
  And how can you judge the truck in practice??? I could lap torres in practice that doesnt mean im gonna even hang in a race! What im saying is there are other trucks besides the damn revo that can be raced... The TNX, MGT,T Maxx, hell Andy Smolnick is winning races out west witha f*$#kin Cen Genises!!!!!!! The savage ISNT the best platform to start building a racer from but it can be done, it just depends on if you want to spend the time and cash making it a racer --Then follow the rules! haha!-- -Tune

Rocco, did you happen to notice that when you beat me last that the motor I got from Gabe flamed out 5 times in that last 10min. race?
I've had nothing but engine problems this whole summer. That's why I'm so happy to have a good motor finally. I knew once I had a motor that worked that I'd be running up front and this weekend proved that to me. My suspension/tire setups have been perfect and my driving has been getting better thanks to Lances' schooling and simply more time on the tracks. I also was there for the mains. Dude, I'm serious, the Savage is a menace on the Pro Series. When are you guys just going to realize that the world evolves and dinasours die?

All im saying is any truck can win on any day ... It doesnt have to be a revo to win... I think the first time you came out to race you had a good engine
 (the opening of the big track)Im glad you have a good engine, nothing is more frustrating than a engine that wont do its job. I hope you bring it to the last DD race in 2 weeks --Then follow the rules! haha!-- -Tune
