    My Shelf Queen Collecting Dust

    Here's some pictures my wife took yesterday of my Savage doing what it does best. Due to an ongoing soccer game, I wasn't able to go to the fun parts of the schoolyard with the big ridge to jump. I still had some good times and bad landings though...Check the front wheels in the last...

    GH Shock Tower Install + BONUS Big-Bore Mount Mod!!!

    I finally recieved the last thing on my wish list today...a pair of Golden Horizons #02026, "Shock Tower II" for the Savage X. I had been looking at lots of different aluminum towers for the purpose of running with only 4 shocks (the plastic towers are pretty flexy with 4 shocks IMO). So, I...

    Free R/C Stuff From Today's BBQ!

    I just had to share this, because, well...who doesn't appreciate freebies from out of nowhere? I was at my buddy's house at a BBQ this afternoon, and ended up at his neighbor's place. Get this...he has his Losi 8T at the pawn shop for $180 ready to go. (Yes, I'm going to find out which pawn...

    Blue Groove Sway Bar Kit - Install & Pics

    When I saw Blue Groove's post about their Savage anti-sway bar kit, I liked what I saw and immediately got a set to try out for myself...look below and you can see the setup for yourself! (Of course my Savage has FLM extended LCG TVPs, but the install would be the same on a stock 25 or X...

    GPM C-Hubs & Steering Blocks = Better Steering!

    This afternoon I got my latest mod for the Savage in the mail...a set of GPM steering blocks (#SAV1021-SIV) and C-hubs (#SAV1019-SIV). I have heard good things about their durability, which is the main reason I got them, since I'm running offset wheels and all. The price was also hard to...

    Traxxas Slash?

    I know, I know, I posted a bad word in my thread title...but I just can't stop looking at these. I just love the scale looks, and it seems Traxxas wants people to race them together...they even hve nerf bars under the shell so you can rub some fenders. What makes it the most tempting is that...

    Ah yes...I finally got my act together and I now have an engine package to match my FLM setup. I got camera-crazy again, see below...:drunk: I wanted a fast, reliable setup without spending toooo much, and I wanted it to all work together, so I'm replacing everything from CB to pipe...

    Engine Break-In at WOT?

    I've been doing a lot (maybe too much) of reading regarding 2-stroke ABC engine break-in, and I found this method here: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=6811864 To be perfectly honest, this method makes far more sense than any other way I have heard about. What I'm wondering if any...

    Dubro Pit Stop

    Whilst I was toy-shopping with my tax return and finishing my Savage, I picked up this neat little thing...a Dubro Pit Stop. Since I just switched to pull-start (and love it), I can carry everything I need with this. As you can see, it comes with an 800cc fuel bottle...enough to fill a...

    Note To All Flm Extended Chassis Owners!

    Morning all, I wanted to make a separate thread about a problem I just encountered while working on my project, and it probably applies to anyone who has the FLM extended TVPs... I had my motor sitting on the motor mount plate while mocking some linkages up, and noticed the motor mount...

    FLM/Mugen/CEN Savage Build

    This is the beginning of a plan I've had for a while now, an FLM LCG extended chassis, and a Mugen MBX5T tank and a CEN radio box. Since my camera has lots of room on its memory card, I thought I'd share my project with y'all. Stay tuned for the CEN Rx box mod below, it was the hardest part so...

    OWB Busted...For Good!

    This weekend, while attempting to beat on my Savage, the OWB started slipping to the point where the rotostart would just spin and the one-way wouldn't grab at all. Cleaning was no use either, the rollers were getting loose. So I looked on Ebay for a replacement, and found this kit to eliminate...

    F4.6 Head Gasket(s)?

    Last night, after some fun with the Savage, I took it apart for cleaning and inspection. I took the head off and there were 2 copper gaskets. In the HPI manual, they only show one gasket. I'm wondering if anyone else can confirm or deny this...if my motor has too many gaskets from HPI, that...

    Fresh 1973 Bronco Shell

    Well, I went to the LHS to buy their dusty old Grave Digger shell and soneone beat me to it. So, I got a Bronco shell and did it up in my spare time. It's not perfect, but it still looks almost too nice to tear up...almost. What do y'all think? Enjoy and discuss. -Greg
