...look at how low and slick this thing is...Drives GREAT!!

...If you CAN, get the upper arm brackets for the Savage...TOTALLY different ride and quite possibly the BIGGEST handling mod you can do...Cheap too...

...Last night out in the dark and the cold on half-power packs it drove great...Almost zero wheelies...A little mod to the front prevented pizza-cutters too...I did wheelie it once, on command, and it went for quite a few meters on the wing :D

...Steering was VERY touchy due to the lowered roll center and had to turn it down...I was worried the wider front hexs would affect steering circle but it didnt at all...

...The new battery boxes are FANTASTIC and dont miss a beat...Got rid of the awful velcro too...

...it was friggin cold but not a peep from the batteries, motor or MMM...Schweet...Gearing needs to go with a 14 pinion too, just to slow it down a little and make it slightly more bashable...

...I will most likely pass on the alloy body and go straight to the new Proline Streamline body...its the first time EVER that i have seen the need for a low-profile, aerodynamic body on an RC...but as it will hardly traction roll now it should last a while...

...The bumpers still annoy me and I havent come up with a decent solution yet...

...New chassis should be here soona nd then its just down to sinking all the screws and mounting it all up again...
