So leave it stock.

As far as fun goes, unless you have a really big space (that gravel pit you had vids of looks good) the baja is not much fun. And 2wd gets old. But have fun!

I can only imagine where you would be now if you had some decent packs for that flux, say 2 3s g3 hyperions and a smaller pinion.... You will miss 4wd and you will miss brushless, especially when you get a sock full of 2 stroke....

But have fun. And give the baja forums a try, lots of knowledge there.
Sorry linc, going to have to argue with your entire post lol.


My savage flux on 6s is sitting in the corner, like an abandoned child. I bought my 5b early in january and don't think there has been a day yet when I havn't driven it, worked on it or bought parts for it. The tuned pipe part is NOT true. They make a huge difference. Yes it's too loud to run in front of the house, do I want to drive it down a crowded road anyways? Nope.

I just got my 30.5cc full mod broken in, but havn't had the chance to rag on it yet. The savage is fun, but it just doesn't make the noise that the 5b does. Louder the better.
