    Dude wheres my steering?

    Yet another day of fun bashing the savage and I'm starting to wonder... Did i blow another hitec 645 in my steering? No, I didn't, thank god. But I did notice something that I have never played with before, my "cam style" steering link. It was so "loose" that with no servo and me turning the...

    Hitec 645mg Broken

    Well I was out bashing and after about 4 tanks of fuel I got a bad kartwheel on a landing and after that my truck stopped turning left. I opened up the case of my servo and I found metal shavings and a chewed up center metal gear. Whats the best way to go about this? Does hitec replace broken...

    monster truck show !!! / r/c

    It was a blast, I am still digging out my pictures and video's from both nights. The savage held up great, until it ran into drummer mid-jump lol. P.S. Lee, you are evil for telling your boy scouts they could play with my trucks haha :)

    Rear Tie Rod Eliminators

    Update: I have an update here for anyone who wants to see the camber adjustment differences. Basically you have less positive adjustment and more negative adjustment but you are still able to achieve 0. I'm not sure why you would want to run positive camber anyways :P. Zero Negative...

    Rear Tie Rod Eliminators

    I do not remember exactly where I saw this but I cannot take credit for it as I was not the first to do this. However I thought I would post this as it may be a useful mod for anyone racing who wants to shed a little weight or stiffen up their rear end a little. Since I had plenty of spare parts...

    Compression?

    Well I had been running OS #8 plugs which are normal sized plugs in an engine that wants to run a long plug like an Mccoy 8. When I put the new plugs in will the compression change be noticable? Easier Starting? More Power? At all noticeable? thanks

    Ofna & Dynamite 086 Pipe??

    Hey Jason, I know your getting a picco and wanted to know about fitment with the 086. Here is the best I can do for a picture of that, but as you can see, you've got plenty of room :).

    Good/Bad Fuel?

    :( Completely unbelievable! I preheated the engine, had the needles set at about where it ran last time but a little richer. I went to start it and it started popping away and not firing. Whats going on I wonder. Well after a bit of pulling I noticed little air bubbles were collecting in my...

    Good/Bad Fuel?

    Thanks a lot for the info. I will throw some fuel in my savage tomorrow afternoon and give it a go. I'll put that 086 on there as well and give it a try. The ribbed pipe sounds incredibly annoying anyways. I'll post results tomorrow after I try and get it up and going.

    Good/Bad Fuel?

    Nah i wasn't sure about the plug for the picco, but I don't even plan on breaking that in until it's comfortable outside. For now I'm just gunna run the axial here and there. As for the tuning I'm at factory according to the book. sometimes i play with the high speed a little bit to see if it...

    Good/Bad Fuel?

    Been noticing lately that my axial .28 and trx 3.3 take awhile to start, sometimes a minute or two of pulling, and sometimes not even starting at all. Plugs are good, no air leaks, getting fuel, ignitor fully charged, engine turning over. All seems to be good. Accept neither wants to start right...

    Dirt Shields

    Update: Here is an update, I have put a few tanks of these in the dirty snow and gravel behind my house. And I will post a few pictures of the result. Here is the rather clean a-arm not long after the run. Here is the exhaust-side shield. As you can see it is covered in both exhaust oils and...

    Snow Sliding Anyone?

    Yes, they spray a chemical on them to melt the snow and ice and they also put down sand. However this is just my alley way in the center of our street block because we have most of our garages behind our houses.
