12 Step Program for Parked Nitro Syndrome! ! !

[Chunky Monkey]

Are you suffering from Parked Nitro Syndrome? ? ?
Thanks to some brainstorming efforts of HPISavageForum Bashers, a program has been established! ! ! ! !

]-[0pa]0ng, Chunky Monkey, and MegaByteMe....We're not just founders, We're members TOO! ! ! !


1. Blow the dust off the truck, that's right, baby steps....
2. Place fuel can and Ignitor by the door
3. Buy AA batteries from walmart in the bulk pack(forces you to use them)
4. Take truck off shelf(arms start shaking and you throw it back)
5. Look at the truck and tell it...."I will break YOU!"
6. Open can of Nitro Fuel and smell the sweetness, fill up fuel bottle
7. Take body off truck, hold it and promise to treat her right and offer free cosmetic surgery
8. Grasp the Truck in a moment of passion and lay her on the floor....
9. Put her top back on and Jam her with the fuel bottle, providing her with the MUCH needed nutrients....
10. Grab your rotostart and promise you won't be too rough on her bearings.....If no roto, tell her you're not there to yank her strings, just providing 6-8inch strokes/pulls, lol....
11. Start her up, clean out the pipes and smell her perfume!
12......After teasing her with a couple tanks and some high speed passes, SLAM her....that's right, put her into the closest tree you can find! This will make you have to break her down and replace the broken pieces. From there, you'll be able to continue steps 6 and on....She likes to be dominated! ! !

[]-[0pa]0ng]

She likes to be controlled and pushed to the limits on and off the track, even if this means broken parts. She loves it when I fill her tank with nothing but the best ( fresh fuel ) 30% nitro. She knows it and gives her all to perform at her optimum for me. When the day is threw she can't wait until we get home to replace those worn out parts and clean her up until she looks new. She waits for the next time until We do this all over again.

So make the best of it for Today is the first Day of the rest of your life!

...you guys are totally obsessed :|.....

[Chunky Monkey]

lol...YEP! ! ! ! !

[HPI_Savage25]

How can you not be obsessed! I am even tho i dont drive often (to conserve fuel)

[Savage]

Yeah, I hate knowing I'm wasting fuel everytime I use my truck, lol!

[]-[0pa]0ng]

You guys need to make a story out of this. This is our 12 step program. We all have the bug or two. Just have to face it there's no turning back. Admitting and surrendering is one way or heck just be the dominating factor and drive her like you mean it.

[Chaos]

Hi my name is Joe and i'm a nitro-holic.......

[paintslayer]

ya I to am obsessed run anywhere from 1-5 tanks of fuel a day on all 3 of my nitro cars I dont care about the money or fuel consumption bc its not a problem its just im so addicted to it bc its just sooo fun

[Dkmode]

i like to think im obsessed with the hobby too!

[Chunky Monkey]

I know I an obsessed with this hobby. It all started with the purchase with of my first savage. Now I own 12 RCs....take that back, 11 since I sold my Buggy to DarthRevo, lol....

[wullie]

iv only owned my savage for 2wks and im totally hooked! u think fuels expensive in America?!! u should try UK prices!!!

[paintslayer]

in canada well in montreal its 30$ a gallon

[Dkmode]

a gallon of fuel in the UK is around £25 or $45-50!!!!!

[wullie]

u think theyl make an lpg conversion kit?lol

[adamskii]

so i finally read that thread... and what amazed me was that I went through those steps almost weekly as if they were second nature...lmao @ that. almost as if it was something i didnt need to learn but was instinct!

must be a savvy thing.

once its in your blood, your addicted for life!

[Stealth Attack]

Well i started in this hobby about 2 years ago with a traxxas nitro sport. I traded and bought (all together 9) different trucks. After about a gallon of fuel i was ready to get rid of each truck and find a new one. Now i have have a savage with about 2 gal. in it and wouldnt trade it for anything. Ive had a nitro sport, nitro evader (still have) Xtm mammoth, Mega force (if any of yall remember them), Duratrax Maximum MT, 3 different Tmaxx's and now my savage.

[]-[0pa]0ng]

Just picked up a Mugen MBX4 ( haven't worked on it yet ) A totally custom crawler about half way built and 2 Savages. One is a complete Shelf queen the other I race and tear up. Fuel here in TX for %30 is $28 per gallon. After the holidays I will rebuild the race savage to a mid tank conversion and .30 engine and a few other small itmes.

I like to shop the Internet for the lowest possible price, half the fun of spending is shopping for parts at a great price.

[Jeremy]

I think half the fun is working and tweaking on your truck yeasteday i think I spent 6 hours fixing stuff (like the diffs and the brake) I had a problem with one of the brarings seating on the 43 tooth bevel gear.. So it took longer then it should have.. Problem was I bought a new 43 tooth and the bearing that sits on there seems to be to big or something.. I pulled it off my old one I had to use a screw driver to get it off, And when I tryed to put it on the new 43 tooth it just slid on and off by hand... (has any one else had this problem???????By the way I would have bought a new bearing as well but my lhs were out of them.... I have like 4 that r still good but they dont fit ether,,,,, Any suggections on this one

My friends give me a hard time about that very thing....'til I find something they are looking for at a steal ;)

[easyesavagex]

Oh no! I thing that i have a problem also....I got my first Savage X two months ago...but now i two Sav 25 from e-bay and a enough parts to build a forth truck! Is it bad if i drive around during the day with all of my gear in the back of car just in case i see a spot to bash??

[Jeremy]

Nope I do the same thing, there is hardly a spot around here and its a bummer

[X25]

you think you got it bad sometimes i take mine to work with me

[Jeremy]

lol we have been so slow at my work I have been getting paid for working on mine( just dont let the boss see) oooooooh wait he was fired like 8 months ago lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[easyesavagex]

I guess i am lucky becuase we have endless places to bash here in Bryan, Texas. One of my buddys has about two acres of land and a tractor that we can use to build what ever we want and another that runs a off road park for ATV's (www.soggybottomatvranch.com) sittin on about 1500 acres or so. You have to pay a fee but its only 20 minutes away. Actually most of the time we just look for construction sites and post up there.

[samisavage]

doobeewha..... THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST CRAP I`VE READ SOOO FAR.

[samisavage]

doobeewha..... THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST CRAP I`VE READ SOOO FAR.

Yes, Doobeewha has a way with words, he can add color to any thread. The man is a genius with words. I for one miss his banter here.

[Dreadnaught]

well i was a nitrohaulic, but my dieselhaulic side took over when my big truck blew the 4R100 out of it. (7.3l makes too much power for it!) so in a couple of months ill be back on the 12 step program!

[savagecre]

doobeewha..... THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST CRAP I`VE READ SOOO FAR.

DOOB here...

Right on, Nitronut...
I thought it may have been a little too (over the top) at the time I posted that little observation..... It was meant to be taken lightly, of course.

I seem to get reminded of the implusive retorts some of my posts sounded like, every time I review my early past posts. ( shameful... lol)

Making me a Mod sure cured that loomming consern,.. real speedy like.
Just ask John... Good call, Mega... lol.

And Sami...Thats really cool to hear, Bro.
It kinda brings a tear to the eye...

You realize that I have to sign your other breast for ya... Miss ya too, Gregg...

Now where's my Sharpie???
