I did see the upcoming races scheduled at LH. We do plan on checking it out. It's probably only 35 minutes from my house.
I didn't want to base a purchase decision on racing trucks, because I do see that many racers put lots of additional money into a racer to make it bulletproof. Important stuff if you are racing, but perhaps overkill for occasional drivers, like us.
I did look at HPI trucks as I own 2 HPI cars. To me it seemed that the Revo was a step above the Savage in the engineering details. You pay more but you get more. I also considered the TMaxx, but the trick suspension on the Revo has the WOW factor going for it.
When it comes to repair parts and upgrades, it seems both brands are very well supported.
