    It's not hard to do with them. I was into RC 2005-2008 when HPI put out the first Savage SS, long before the Revo. I broke, snapped, blew up and then upgraded pretty much every part on that thing. But it was fast and it was fun and it would go anywhere. Don't think I ever won a race but I had lot of fun.

    I did not know that. Sucks.

    I have an HPI Nitro MT2 collecting dust in my garage. Blew the front diff and kinda gave up looking for new spider gears.

    Well if I come across another Savage SS new in the box I'll be sure to pick it up. Guarantee I can still put the whole thing together without looking at the instructions. Did it so many times it's burned into my memory for life.

    I only ever did Nitro. The smell of the smoke, the sound of the exhaust, getting the carb tuned juuuuust right. Fun stuff.

    Nice

    They definitely bring some piece of mind on trails

    And in parking lots. I need to touch up the bed liner on mine. No one ever sees the sliders until their door hits em. Some people have opened their door so fast it hit the sliders hard enough to set off my alarm o_O
