    over heating

    I get similar temps with my XL's 5.9. Around 270-280. Runs really strong and still has a nice smoke trail so I'm thinking this is just a good temp for these motors.

    Hpi D-box

    I doubt it would keep the truck from flipping over. Might be fun for some long graceful dirt drifts though... :drunk:

    Brake question

    The dual red fiber brake setup that comes stock on my XL works awesome. The trick is to keep it from doing too many stoppies and endos! :duh:

    Share your crash damage pics!

    I had a set of TVP's that looked like that once! My own fault for letting someone else drive my Savvy 25.

    Painting Shock Springs

    Well you could dip them in paint... or maybe some of that plasti-dip type stuff? A plastic or rubberized coating would probably last much longer than paint.

    Savage XL or Savage X4,6

    Exactly. For the little bit more money for the XL you get the 3-speed, bigger motor, bigger truck, etc! I'm really happy with my XL. Though as mentioned above, the standard sized Savages seem to handle better (stock for stock).

    Specs for HPI SF-5 steering servo?

    I found the specs, I figured I'd post them here in case anyone else is interested. HPI SF-5 Torque: 8.9kg/cm @ 6.0v Speed: .20 sec/60 degree @ 6.0v Hitec HS-5625MG Torque: 9.4kg/cm @ 6.0v Speed: .14 sec/60 degree @ 6.0v So it looks like the 5625 is a decent upgrade, slightly more...

    fuel tank and underside guard for xl

    I've also been looking for a center skid plate for my XL but haven't found anyone that's making them yet. Maybe I'll make one out of Carbon fiber...

    Specs for HPI SF-5 steering servo?

    OK actually I just noticed the specs for the HS-5625MG are actually 7.9 kg/cm at 4.8v and 9.4 kg/cm at 6v. I'm guessing HPI is quoting the spec for the SF-5 at 6v, right?

    Specs for HPI SF-5 steering servo?

    I have an extra Hitec HS-5625MG servo laying around and I was thinking of swapping it out for the stock SF-5 steering servo in my Savage XL... but I'm not sure how much of an upgrade that really is. HPI's website lists the SF-5 being 9kg/cm torque but no specs on speed. The HS-5625MG is listed...

    Ebay questions on selling

    There's no monthly fee to be a seller or anything, but when you post an item for sale there will be a listing fee which is based on the starting bid and options (reserve, bold, etc). Then there is also a final value fee based on a percentage of the final price once the auction ends.

    What do you Drive everyday? REAL CAR!

    I've never been to the gap, but I'd like to make it out there some day. I hear that it's getting a bit overcrowded and a lot of police presence, but I'm sure it'd still be worth the trip.

    What do you Drive everyday? REAL CAR!

    Yeah I use my Shoei helmet for trackdays that way if I crash it's not $600 down the drain for a new Arai. Plus the Arai buffets around a lot at high speed so the Shoei is actually more comfortable at track speeds. I've ridden my buddy's K6 Gix 1000 and it's a BEAST! Nice bike!

    What do you Drive everyday? REAL CAR!

    Exactly. It takes me about an hour to get it ready for the track... that's to swap the bodywork swap the tires to slicks, change the oil, and check over the bike. :cool:
