After a conversation in the shout this morning, I figured I would post up how I pack up my trucks, TX's and charger when I go out to bash/race.
Transporting 6 savages plus all the other stuff can be a pain so I have found packing everything in a tote or a case makes it easier to load up the car and minimizes the mess so cleaning the car at the end of the day is quicker.
Here are the two wing-totes I have
http://www.wing-tote.com/truckTote.php
http://www.wing-tote.com/deluxTruck.php I have this in red
The wing tote bags have a lot of room for stowage and plenty of inside and outside pockets to put your stuff in. To make it easier to haul 6 savages, I put 3 savages in one bag, 2 in another and the puller in the HPI bag (not pictured). To put 2-3 savages into a tote does take a little work. In order to fit them all, I take the wheels, hexes and pins off the truck, put them in a little plastic box and put the box in one of the tote pockets. It can be a slight pain in the butt to take the wheels off and on, especially after a long hot day of racing or bashing, but it prevents having to buy individual bags for the trucks.
Here is a pic with 2 and wheels for all three trucks.
Here is a pic with all 3 savages in a tote:
obviously not the recommended stowage configuration for the shelf queen.
For my TX's i bought this case from Harbor Freight:

I also have a smaller case I got from harbor freight for about 10 bucks for my charger, power supply and connectors.
As far as toolboxes, there are so many options out there to fit everyones needs and budget. Only reason why I didn't post up pics of the toolboxes is because I still am trying to figure out the best way to organize and consolidate everything.
Post up what you use to haul your trucks and tools out to the bash site.
