How about the Pro-Line Cheyenne Bead-locs and the Moab XL Tyres. Narrow, Very Tall & Extreamly Scale looking. If you don't want anything Quite that Big go with the Pro-Line Badlands Tyres and some Maxximizer Beadlocks.
I would recommend the X-75's with the Losi Zombie Maxx Tires. I've seen this combo before and it just looks SICK!! Not to mention the Zombie's hook up very well.
Pics are coming as soon as the Engine gets here, and the new MGT Tank. I'm in the middle of my first Rebuild of my Savage. I took Pics of before and as soon as I'm Done I'll get the After shots for Comparison. These are the last two parts I need to get it running. I can't wait, it should be...
Which pipe do you run with the Axial .32's. Right Now I have the Hot Bodies Single chamber Aluminum pipe. It did wonders for my HPI .25 but I'm not sure about running it with the .32
Supertib, I have a question about the STS 30. How easy (or hard for that matter) are they to tune compared to other motors? I was talking to a guy who is sponsored by STS at our local track and he said they were rather difficult to keep tuned up correctly. Of course he also said that once you do...
I just got that same one here at the house and I must say, it's a great looking piece. It's very light weight and very well made. You will not be disappointed.
I've got a set of these on my Savage now and they seem to work really well. They were a great deal so I thoughtr I would share it with everybody. Enjoy.

I just wanted to throw my $.02 worth in here. I agree with Xjeepguy, this is the way you are supposed to have a discussion about engines(or anything for that matter), no flaming, just good open discussion. The STS sponsored guy at my local track(wish I had could remember his name now) swore by...
I talked to a guy at my local track this past weekend who's sponsored by STS and even he said they were hard to tune. If you get one the STS .30 has a lot of power but just remember it is hard to tune.
I'm with Polly on this one, get the Axial.
The CEN Matrix TM Wheels have a +1/2 offset compared to the Stock Savage wheels. They are a standard Maxx size rim, 6 Spokes and 23mm hub. You can run any Truggy Tire set you want for racing.
I've heard alot of differing opinions about the HCR TVP's. Some people love them, some hate them. I think they look Awesome. I just got the Fastlane Machines LCG Extended TVP's, Servo Plate, Motor Plate, Servo Mounts and Center Skid. Can't wait to put it all together.
Have you tried any other bodies with that Extended FLM Chassis? I'm waiting for mine to come in from Slap Ma Fro. (Patience is a Virtue, I keep telling myself) I already have a lot of parts just sitting here waiting to build it. The only things I'm missing are the TVP's, the Motor Plate and...
If price is of no concern get a Rody Modified RB C6, I'm not saying it will last that long, but it will have a ton of power!
I've also heard good things about the RB 728.
O.S. engines have always had a good rep for reliability and the power is usually good as well.
The old addage is...
Does anybody run the Powerstroke shocks or have you had any experience with them? The only guys I know who do have them on T-Maxxes and swear by them. I figure if they can handle the weight of the MGT a Savage should be good. I loved the LST shocks, even if I didn't really like the truck...
Try the Axial .32 and gear it up. I've heard nothing but good things about them. I think my s-25 is on it's last leg (or gallon as it may be) and that's what I'm going with. Put the 18 tooth clutch bell on there and watch it still flip on it's lid:D:D:D
