Here's a picture of my Savage SS 4.6
It has alot of mods, too much to list!
Can i see a pic without the body on please?

[losi racer13]

thanks man!, how does the difference feel?

[crazy4rc]

Was ur truck on Inside Rc. Or were u at a Dirt oval track. I seen the Same truck on Inside Rc today.
Nope wasn't me. If they called I'd love to do a show with them though!

[crazy4rc]

I haven't raced it yet, my track doesn't open till May 7th. I like how it feels with the usual playtime bashing. You don't have the topheavy rollover feel as much.

[losi racer13]

hmm sounds like it will handle corners better then.

[sportmaxx91]

Heres is my maxx. My body is destroyed and i would rather spend the money on hop ups than a body so i made this cardboard one. Not the prettiest in the world but it works. I made the trailera few days ago. Again not the prettiest but it works. Knida at least, it jumps around a lot while off road. I want to paint it and put sides on it but for now its like this. The car was there just for the picture and to put on some wieght. Its some toy rc that i picked up for $1 at a yard sale. Enjoy. BTW it isn't near as clean now. Found a new bashing spot at a nieghborhodd in construction so it comes home covered in brown (dirt) or white (rocks) dust.

[losi racer13]

nice. thats ok i dont have a body either.

[sportmaxx91]

It works. For now at least

[icanttype]

why do you have a trailer?

[sportmaxx91]

Got bored and decided to build it. Looks cool. I like it. I want to make it to hold my rc boat so i can back it into the water.

[losi racer13]

Crazy4rc- How do u like the lcg tvps tho..i just ordered some along with some other goodies :D . this truck should be looking awesome bout the time race season comes up. May13. Im still fiddling around with my dampner oil im at 60wt for the dampeners but i might go 45 or 50. the rebounds are at 40. so takes time to do it but its worth it.

I just ran mine today against a stock 4.6 and "What a difference!" You really don't appreciate it until you actually compare them together. I run the stock oil, 10 wt, with triple rate springs I got off of ebay and I'm really comfortable with this setting. I had the Integy MSR5 shocks but they leaked like crazy and bent shafts, had to go.

[chrisoneal]

were did u find those springs i cant find them at all in black.

[losi racer13]

well for onroad i use 4 shocks with springs as rebound to push the dampeners up and then i use 4 shocks without springs as dampening the oil is still there but there is no kick back so it so nice a smooth and its amazing for onroad but my little thing is i flip the rebound ones upside down for lcg. and i use internal shock limiters.

[chrisoneal]

oh i was asking Crazyrc but thanks for the info i might try that

[crazy4rc]

Ebay. I just did a search and could not find them in black. Silver, red, purple and blue and yellow but no black. I bought them like a year ago.

Very nice truck! I really like the 40 series wabash/bowties combo. Do you have by any chance a lower side view and lower front view of this truck? Sweet Ride! :)

[winning edge designs]

Sweeeeeeeeet!

Nice work!

[adrianderekluna]

watch that nova rc head. they tend to over cool, meaning the oil in the fuel is out of it's optimal viscocity range allowing metal to metal contact.

wen we were in testing with nova, we had hamburger style heads. where you could remove stacks depending on the temperature of the day.

just a note. nice truck.

[losi racer13]

oh yes....

Hello, Just wanted to share my video I edited personally.
I hope you enjoy it!!!

[Tommy_rc]

i painted my Kyosho truck studium force 2day here is some photos i took on my phone..

[crazy4rc]

Losi 13, I can't see it being a good thing when you slam your truck so far down. Where's your suspension travel? It must bottom out like crazy. Show some pictures of your suspension, arms, shocks, etc.....

[Tommy_rc]

heres a other one..

[sportmaxx91]

The only problem is it consumes twice the fuel. LOL Nice truck though really like it. Do u have to keep the engines tuned the same?

Just can't wait to see a video of your SUPER TRUCK's ride.

I don't think you can keep the front wheels on the ground.. :cool:

[losi racer13]

Crazy- i race my savage onroad against other monster trucks, since there really is no close offroad track so i have to slam it to keep th center gravity low, so i keep the truck stable.

[rojo]

how do u post your pictures.

[Quinton]

Nice twin engine OS 30's!

You have to upload your pics somewhere first.

[losi racer13]

just got done driving the savage with the lcg, and it drives soo much better, takes corners faster and handles them like a touring car, i got to fittle with the shock oil some more. Also it feels like its putting out more torque since all the center bones are even with the drive cups.

[losi racer13]

S-Skugg, are you from sweden since i see a mini flag on ur servo.

[s-skuggan]

yes
upload your picture

i'm all up for any canadian team to bring back the cup to where it originally came from... CANADA!!
Reallistically, lord stanely bought the cup somewhere in britan for 50bucks and brought it to northamerica

[thedarkness]

Im for any canadian team, well except toronto the western teams are just alittle more so.

[winning edge designs]

I lost interest in Hockey once it became like Baseball. It seems more about money then the game when they can skip seasons and dozens of games because a few million a year isn't enough.

Takes the "sport" out of it for me at least.

[Quinton]

I like nitro's better then electric's but I'm telling you it'll smoke most nitro's. I'm not going to get into an online whizzing war, just don't knock it until you run against one that is properly set up.

[DarkSavage]

thats how my mini t was, go full throttle around turns and not have to worry about brakes, since i have foams. had the baja in it. but that was slow. now im going for the cobalt? its a 17 or 16t motor.

[Quinton]

I'm running the Mamba Comp X on GP1100's.

[DarkSavage]

nice i have gp's

[kawasakirider]

It's kool but i just hate the electric runtimes they get 30 mins max and have to charge another batt. Hey is that a jato or revo rpm front bumber on your little thingy?

[Quinton]

I agree with that but that's why I have an 1/8 buggy, Savage and Yokomo GT-4 to run while it's recharging. The rpm bumper is made for the rc18t.

i run alluminum on mine and have never bent a shaft in 2 years.

[chrisoneal]

i think its just the HOT bodies that have the weak shafts

[winning edge designs]

MAXXTRAX, sick Revo man!

That thing will be wicked wheelie monster! Mine lofts the front end all the time with an O.S. .18, although the 3.3 has been in a little while now and it is smoother on the bottom with a little more top end.

Enjoy that monster and keep it with you at all time, if your fullsize ride breaks down you can tow it home with the Revo!

Had one of those. That's one underrated MT.

[kawasakirider]

Here are a few i took of my savage LE last night. It is stock except for the venom hump pack and i modded the radio box so i didn't have to take it off all the time. Also i raised it up even more with my ghetto idea looks clean though. :D

ghetto LOL bits of hose cut a slice in them put them around hte shock body then wrapped with electrical tape so it looked normal and they didn't pop off

http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d64/kawaskirider/Picture119.jpg

Can't wait till i get a picco or sts .28 i need to get my rear diff fixed again though i blew one the day before yesterday that is the 5th. (it happened because my lhs keeps using the same diff cup even though that is the problem they keep using it coz they don't have any diff cups and the repairs only last half a tank, they lock the diffs and hope for the best) i will get it fixed only when they get another cup for it :) then i need to buy that 8 port race engine from clint then i will save for a new engine for my sav. I must say though im fairly impressed with the s-25 so far because everyone i have spoken to say it is gruntless mine will literally jump off the ground wen it is on grass and i hammer the throttle and it lands on it's lid. Apparently that engine is hit and miss i must have gotton a good one :D

[Quinton]

The reason why it'll jump off the ground is because you've got your shocks setup very stiff. Makes for fun wheelies and 2 wheel action but horrible when racing on a loose dirt track.

[kawasakirider]

It did that before i put my ghetto spacers in. I go bashing at a bmx track with jumps way bigger than jumps on an rc track but the surface is as hard as a rock with extremely fine gravel so it is slipperly as hell fun for doughnuts :D

[DarkSavage]

Thats why you lower it and make the oil thicker.

[kawasakirider]

I don't like the look of them when they are slammed IMO an mt is either slammed totally as a street racer or as high as it can go, that is when they look their best

[Brian23]

i could care less about llooks-- i just care about performance

[savagepicco26]

i could care less about llooks-- i just care about performance

BAM! Thats where its at, some show all go. :D

what s wrong with having the best of both worlds? i don't race i bash so it suits me fine

crazy4rc what happend did the savage go out early it dont look as dirty as the hellfire.

[GT Freak]

yes, its a SUPER SECRET process (cough coughperm markercough cough):p so far ive broke the rear body posts...lol got smart tho..just turned the front upside down and WA-LAA usable body posts! also lowered the body!

[kawasakirider]

Lol :D

[MrB1973]

Mrb1976, whats with the timmy turner all over your body LOL?

It was for my little girl..that's one of her favorite shows, and it was a good chance to experiment with the picture glue.

[kawasakirider]

O ok lol i have seen it a few times when im bored it's ok but not as good as south park or the simpsons lil or crank yankers or drawn together.

[crazy4rc]

crazy4rc what happend did the savage go out early it dont look as dirty as the hellfire.

Na, It went out after the track dried so the mud wasn't kicking up. The Hellfire had the most practice time.

[Quinton]

Nice looking!

[MAXXTRAX]

MAXXTRAX, sick Revo man!

That thing will be wicked wheelie monster! Mine lofts the front end all the time with an O.S. .18, although the 3.3 has been in a little while now and it is smoother on the bottom with a little more top end.

Enjoy that monster and keep it with you at all time, if your fullsize ride breaks down you can tow it home with the Revo!

LOL, Jim

LOL, I drive a Jeep Wrangler TJ, so the towing part maybe a possiblility :D You own JConcepts? I do the painting over at MVBashers.org

[mushroomhead13]

Meda how do you like your X is as tough as the other savages. very nice trucks btw

[winning edge designs]

MAXXTRAX, I work with Jconcepts on the illuzion body line and help with other projects as well. Also doing the painting as well, as my second job. :)

Nice Car socal

[kawasakirider]

Has anyone had troubles with the paint stripping off there shocks on the savage black springs when the oil from the pipe hits them? I did so i took my springs off and marinated them lol in nitro (no i am not cooking them later) and i did this to all 8 shocks then rubbed the paint off they are now silver. It looks allot better than the crappy mottled look but i had cuts all over my fingers (worth it though) i will try and get some pics later.

Trent

[chrisoneal]

i bet that hurts with nitro in those cuts. lol

[kawasakirider]

Yeh it stung a bit but nothing to really annoy ya allot

Crazy, jw could you do me a favour plz? If so that would be sweet, could you mount your hellfire lid on your sav and take pics? that would be awsome as im thinking of buying a HF body and using it on my sav but i dunno if it would be deep enough to come down and cover the pipe. If you could do that it would be fabulous if not it doesn't matter.

Trent

[DarkSavage]

ive seen a hellfire body on a savage and it doesnt look good the body is to small., they have a pic on savage-central

[RC_Addict]

Wow those things are massive. they look so cool, how much are they?

[QSL]

You cant buy them anymore. They are out of production. 2 companies made them and the prices ranged from $2500 to over $4500. It has taken many years for me to collect the 3 I have. They are VERY hard to find. The 2 4wd ones were made by the same company and they only produced 20 of them. Check my site out.

that's what I call a monster truck. do they handle decent?

[ericem]

Heres a group pic. My lst is pretty stock and my hyper 7 pcr is the same.

[QSL]

that's what I call a monster truck. do they handle decent?


The 4wd ones handle real good. The 2wd one has really long shocks and it makes it sway a bit. Either way they are a BLAST to run. Performance wise, they can do to scale what you would expect a full size monster truck would do. The one with the 42cc is a monster and tears it up real good!

[DarkSavage]

RuKind, is that a dual engine MGT in the Background, do you have any close up pics of the truck?

[RuKind]

RuKind, is that a dual engine MGT in the Background, do you have any close up pics of the truck?

No, it's a titan, but it's not a factory titan twin. It started life as a titan deluxe and was fitted with the second engine befor ofna ever offered the titan as a twin. If you look at a factory twin you'll see that it uses differnt fuel tanks and radio box. It's a blast and the sound you get from the twins is unreal.

I got the slipper set preaty loose, you get tired of flipping it back over, but it does nice wheelies. run time is only about 8 to 10 min. This winter I looking to rebuild the whole truck, I thinking twin LRP's with blowers & nitrious, show with alot of go.

nitrous...maby....Blowers DEFINATLY NOT....pointless, waste of money....imo

[MrCrash]

Instead of getting nitrous and blowers, why not polish everything on the truck? It would be truly "pimped out", and the weight loss caused by sanding the rough surfaces might get you some extra performance.

[kawasakirider]

Hey dark sav, Nice revo and Savage but why do u have both of them slammed? Do you ever bash them in the dirt or is it all road racing? Anyway it is a sweet truck after i fix my sav and get a new engine and maybe some ext tvp's for it im gunna buy a 2.5 revo

[DarkSavage]

its bones level so i dont know where you see slammed from. but i only race onroad since thats all we have here, but if i drive a 45min away i can race offroad

[socalBash]

I've finally done everything I want to do with my Savvy. I don't think anything will change it from what it's at right now. That is unless something cool comes along. :D

http://2000.homestead.com/files/pic/blacksav1.jpg http://2000.homestead.com/files/pic/blacksav2.jpg

In my haste to take pictures before the sun went down, I just noticed that I forgot to hook up the throttle linkage :p

At a final stance this is what's on it:

-STS .28 Engine
-HPI Carbon Fibre TVP
-HPI Carbon Fibre Arm Braces
-HPI Dual Brake Disc
-HPI Cam Type Servo Saver
-HPI 4 Bevel Diff Gear
-HPI Air Cleaner 21+ Size
-HPI Ribbed Tuned Pipe Black
-HPI Radio Box Cover
-HPI Universal Dogbone 8x87mm Center Front

[Bunsincunsin]

Very nice, Good Job!!!! I am down with the all black theme, it looks TIGHT! :eek:

Do you race or bash? If you bash tell me how the TVP's hold up.

[chrisoneal]

Hey man i still see some purple in there. lol. Nice truck tho

[RuKind]

Nice looking savvy

Socal, do you still have your titan? Did you make the roll cage? If not where you get it?

[Kuya]

Very nice, Good Job!!!! I am down with the all black theme, it looks TIGHT! :eek:

Do you race or bash? If you bash tell me how the TVP's hod up.

Thanks man, I bash and only bash and the only thing I race are the kids on their BMX's. Being that the TVP's are carbon fiber and not aluminum, they won't bend. When the TVPs hit their breaking point, I'd imagine they'd shatter, but I haven't hit that point. I have taken a ramp jump off of an overpass and landed nose first onto the ground below. The only thing broken was my front bumper and shock tower. Maybe the TVPs would break if I ran it bumperless WOT into a wall... :eek:

Hey man i still see some purple in there. lol. Nice truck tho

If you could direct me to black or non purple lower bulkhead plates, then I'll get them.

You could always deanodize them.

[Quinton]

Kuya your Savage looks like the Mad Max version. I like it!

[kawasakirider]

its bones level so i dont know where you see slammed from.

It is a monster truck is it not? Any MT that low IMO is slammed :rolleyes: But non the less it is still a sick truck and I like it. Kuya your truck is sick man good job :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :cool:

[chrisoneal]

They make this cleaner that is called greased lightning. SPray that on there and the purple should come off. I dont want you to think that im dogging your savage it looks awesome make. Try to get some action shots for us.

[Kuya]

I will ride and take pics right after I get a chance to break in my engine. Today was the first hot day in a long time and my GF wanted to do stuff. My next day off is probably around tuesday next week. Little time for the hobby because hot summer days means a lot of people at the restaurant. :o

[DarkSavage]

i like the black theme.

[savagepicco26]

It is a monster truck is it not? Any MT that low IMO is slammed :rolleyes:
not if you want to race it. even offroad racing, i run my savage and revo "bones level" any higher, your center of gravity goes up and the trucks becomes more unstable. not good for racing.

[kawasakirider]

Here are pics of the mods that I have just finished up on my Savage. Mid - tank, Battery relocation, and throttle relocation. I have to admit modding is very fun, all of the fabricating and using your mind.

Very clean i like it. Would that custom box with ur hump pack be vulnrable in a big hit?

[Bunsincunsin]

In a realy big nasty hit, probably. But it is pretty much well protected.

As of right now, TT's has halted in sales. Hopefully Casey doesn't leave the hobby. :(

[Bunsincunsin]

I don't think he is leaving the hobby. On Savage Central I think I read a post where he said it was just too much work, and time to make parts and they weren't selling enough to make a good prophet. But I don't remember exactly what he said.

[RDucky02]

are those the xtm rims? on Skeeze' truck?

[Blue Haze]

Hey guys, here is my Gigacrusher.

[D3VILDOGG]

This is my LST2, purchased in February, with almost two gallons run through it. It is basically bone-stock, except for 10,000wt silicon in the front and rear diffs, 35wt shock oil, an XTM sliding carbon clutch and flywheel, dual receiver packs, big-bore fuel filter, Duratrax fail-safe, hard-anodized exhaust, RPM gear cover, and a larger air filter.

[D3VILDOGG]

Here's a shot of the LST2 with the body off.

[California Kid]

This is my TXT-1....

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j310/customhearse/0664077-R1-036-16A.jpg

It has the 1/8th scale Grave Digger body, which fit better than the 1/10th bodys.

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j310/customhearse/0664077-R1-034-15A.jpg

It runs two rooster ESC's, two Reedy/Team Associated 12 turn Furys, and two 3300 V1S powered Trinitys.

http://bestsmileys.com/water/6.gif

[46u]

Nice truck D3VILDOGG! You say you have about 2 gallons throw it, how do you keep it from getting skinned up and so clean with that much fuel throw it? I clean mine after each day of running but mine sure was skin up a whole lot more they yours after 2 gallons. Do you run it hard?

[D3VILDOGG]

Thanks 46u! Well, I really haven't had a chance to bash it too hard because of my location, but hopefully that'll change soon. I'm fairly good with the controls, so I've only rolled it a few times because of it's braking power and tendency to wheelie, but I've never hit anything. WD-40 does wonders; I use it to wipe the body down so it covers up minor scratches, I also spend alot of time keeping the chassis clean to keep wear to a minimum. I've heard this body likes to crack around the fuel-filler area, so when it does I'll probably go with the LST Racer body.

[46u]

Running off road it is hard keeping my trucks clean. I spend about 2 to 3 hours after a day as the track prepping, after run oil, and cleaning my trucks. I do not get them spot less but I do keep mine cleaner then most of the others I have seen. I definitely believe in keeping them clean is good to the health of the truck.

[DarkSavage]

Yeah cleaning your truck/car helps them perform better less weight ''not much'' and keeps everything smooth such as hing pins, pivot balls, shocks, it all helps when you keep your truck clean, rather then really dirty.

Hey 46U I deffinetly have to agree with U there. Some of my friends laugh at me about how clean I keep my trucks but it does matter! Your diffs, axles, brakes, and other components wont last long with caked up dirt.

Also, for more than one pic just copy and past the [img] code into where you are writing and do it with more than one code and u will have more pics don't put it into the post picture box

[kawasakirider]

riders is that revo new? looks it

[RiderZ]

riders is that revo new? looks it

Yes it is.Ive had it for two weeks now.Really wanted a Savage but the local HS gave me a deal i could'nt refuse on the Revo.So far i'm really happy with it-the handling is incredible.

[DarkSavage]

yeah you would like the revo better tho. since the Savage takes more then the truck costs to make it a racer.

[kawasakirider]

by the looks of the revo suspension set up it seems he is planning to bash........

[RiderZ]

Yes i bought it to bash and to terrorize the neighbors. :D

[kawasakirider]

lol u will like the revo they are sick i had the choice and i went for the limited edition savage and now im planning on buying a revo (not because theres anything i don't like with the sav i just want another rc)

[kawasakirider]

dark sav, why do u think it costs a load of money to make the sav a racer? get the LE or the X or any sav that has some decent power and lower it down IMO the sav out of the box handles great comparable to my hyper 7 and the speed is aboutt he same and my sav is stock.

[Brian23]

racing is more than having a big engine... the savage is also a heavy truck

[kawasakirider]

The lst2 isn't? yeh 'swat i thought a savage cna be made a racer for just a club race with a ride height change

[Brian23]

true it is and so is the mgt-- i gues i made a bad point there lol

[RuKind]

The lst2 at 13lbs. or so, is heavy but the design of the truck has alot lower cg and alot wider stance then the savage. It still took alittle $$ to get my lst2 to be a proper racer.

[kawasakirider]

lol NP im just saying that everyone says that the sav needs a truck load of $$$ to be made a racer but in reality it needs a shock oil and maybe spring change, then it is up to the driver sure the sav driver may have a harder time keeping up but it doesn't mean it can't be done and i have seen allot of stock savs win against revos and with drivers of similar skill levels it just depends how it works on the day i spose.

[kawasakirider]

i don't think many rc vehicles need allot of money to be racers if u think smart. IMO the most race worthy savs out of the box are: the LE as number one 3 speed dirt bonz cam type servo saer nice pipe, 2 savage 4.6 ss X everything the sav X has except more grunt and u choose ur radio gear and last the savage X everything to be a good racer but with a shock change of the LE the x can't really compare without the things the sav has. The lst2 is a great race truck but in reality no truck is ready to hit the track straight out of the box. JMO

Wow i did'nt mean to start a controversy by posting pics of my Revo.I'm actually more into the Monster trucks than race trucks.Thats why i have the Proline Mashers and 72' Chevy body on it.I dont race and dont plan on racing so its big tires and lots of ground clearance for me!!! :D

[kawasakirider]

NP RiderZ you will be happy with ur revo just out of curiosity what sort of sav did u have lined up?

[RiderZ]

Really wanted a Savage SS kit! BTW kawasakirider-i ride a Suzuki Z400.
Probably should'nt have posted a pic of my quad-its not R/C

[RuKind]

The most expensive thing you need to buy and probable the biggest preformance improvment is wheels and tires $24 for rims and $56 40 series bowties. But your going to want F.O.C., diff oil, sway bars, heavier springs, shock oil (on a lst2 thats about a bottle each) and a nice pipe. Oh yea you can't race a stock body so add a body and paint.

[DarkSavage]

No im saying it costs alot. ok include this to make it a full out racer.

New electronics

New rims tires

new pipe(depends on model)

low center gravity tvps

new shock oil

new springs(track preference)

But the thing is since i bought it rtr 25 i had to buy the alot more then the new ones come out with. im just saying it depends on your likings. i like to spend alot of money on something im gonna be racing so i go full out on it. as you seen mine in the pic. its not stock.

[kawasakirider]

Yes dark sav i love your savage and i realise now you would have spent allot of money on it because it was a 25 rtr mine was (is) the limited edition all i need to to do make it race able really is to lower my truck with the cam type servo saver even with it up high like that it handles as well as my buggy. RiderZ, Im 14 i have a kx125 (2 stroke race bike) and also with the ss kit if it was the 25 ss be glad u bought ur revo the only savs i would buy over a revo is the limited edition or the 4.6 ss kit (non X version but I may change my veiws on the X if HPI fix the X's problems with the kit version and fix up the rtr not sure yet).
