Of course, building a totally custom machine could be awesome too, if you do it right.  |
Never really seen one. Arent you building one? Got a project link?

I managed to break a front spindle on mine and replaced it with an aluminum GH one (probably going to break the C-blocks now  ). So far an ace in my book. |
Im not really to into the muggy either, I really wanted one a while back but never had the drive to build it. Its a cool car, but im not much of a losi fan

however. savages build properly are quite tough when it comes to jumping and the like. i do not own a lst but most of what i read is positive.
imo a multiple speed tranny is not going to hold up long with serious brushless power.
for jumping etc also a lcg is not indicated. for doing backflips and things you may want a "higher" cg. quite different needs than for racing.

Im just more so asking for a truck that lasts. I always have wanted a savage because of how big they are, just never knew how strong they are. I know bashing takes a toll on parts, and thats more then fine. I just dont want a car that has plastic parts that break by looking at it mean you know?
No one so far has had power with the tranny. FLM only makes the LCG chassis (which is still way more GC then something like a revo, or muggy, or what ever. Especially with the XL terra pin tires. Plus it will drive better, which is nice for a giant truck
