Well...I would say the Savage is not stronger than the Revo, but maybe the same strength.

A stock Savage goes about 30, so crashing at full speed barely breaks anything. The Revo goes 40, the 3.3 will do 45+ (I have seen some break 50) so a full speed crash has alot more impact force. As MPH increases linearly, impact force increases exponentially.

So, crashing a Revo at 30, savage speed, probably wouldnt do much either. But crashing a Revo at 45, would likely tear something right off. Crashing a Savage at 45, would probably tear stuff off too.

So, its not that the Savage is stronger, it just has a perception of being stronger.

Plus, a Revo is WAAAAY better than a Savage. Suspension is a billion times better, and with a little work, it can be way stronger.
