This was featured in my magazine, this guys company makes special shock towers for the Savage to lower the CG. This thing looks sweet with the wing. Giving me ideas Big Grin

I'm liking the center mount gas tank.


Race ready Savage - RCDad - 09-01-2005

Hmm... I guess they are just mounting it inside the ladder cage?


Race ready Savage - Mr. Tune - 09-01-2005

Pretty much. I modify the radio tray to get it in there. Help with the center of gravity.

I'd really like to see more pics of this truck, the ones in the magazine are all I've been able to find.

The guys web site is http://www.rockconcepts.com. I had debated getting a set of his lowered TVP's for my Savage when I had it.

I may get some of his shock towers. He wins quite a few races with his Savage.


Race ready Savage - RCDad - 09-02-2005

I guess this is the chassis he is using for that center mounted tank.

The towers are 54 bucks each... I already thought about them, and then i saw the price and pasted... Concidering you then need either 2 sets of rear buggy shock or the pro lines... Your looking at over two bills for that set up

I get my lowered chassis from twisted toys. The guy is great to deal with, lifetime warrenty, thicker than stock high quality product and there only like 80 buck shipped


Race ready Savage - Blown5.0 - 09-02-2005

http://www.novarcproducts has adjustable shoch towers for $65.00 a pair. I had them on my Savage and the quality is excellent.


Race ready Savage - RCDad - 09-02-2005

I wonder if the shock towers from FLM would be just as good?


Race ready Savage - Tex - 09-03-2005

I bet some UE racerX shocks with the Nova or Fastlane towers would benefit the Savages handling immensely. Then add lowered TVP's and you have a race truck. OK fine, you still need race tires and good electronics, but hey that might get the chassis closer to being racey.

eh, what do I know about sausages anyway...............I mean savages
