the scoop on the rear under the car is what is causeing that to do that my friends the air catches that scoop like part of the car so try it without that body

Overall thoughts one year later ?.?.? Should I invest $699.99

Nice..im.getting the same one. Can you please tell me if it needs any extra calibration once tou go from nimh to 2s lipo?

Hello...when changing from ni mh battery to 2s lipo, is there anything tou have to do ,or just plug the battery in?

it's not changing gears.

Pointless short

Would 15mm look right on a 2021 trx 4 bronco?

That thing is PERFECTLY tuned! Just a tad rich is exactly who I run all my RC's. Personally I wouldnt break it in so hard, but you do you! I had an Octane back when they came out and loved it. Miss that thing terribly, might get one of these now that I seen your video! Talbot thrashed his and gave it a poor review initially, so it put me off to it. But you drive yours just how I drive mine, so I will definitely be in the market again for a 8th scale nitro!

You had more luck in the summer? I know nitros don't like sub zero temps

looks like awesome fun 🤣

.... 1st run was 15 seconds in a straight line on grass and the rear tires came off rims and tires ripped in half 2nd Run 20 minutes and spur gear is gone so truck does even run now

Got one today late but never to late

3s with stock gearing (just upgraded to a metal gear instead of plastic) works great for me. I also lifted it to the highest possbile position to prevent it from scraping. Never had it airborne yet.

Brilliant video..

i have a set of these tires and the same car, im going to try to use my grip wheels up front and drift tires in the rear, should be able to get higher speed drifts in

that truck will run a lot faster if you lean out the low and high needle, start with the high and then tune the low. you'll see a 30 percent increase in power

Wow !

I was into nitro cars like 20 years ago, back then if you didn't buy an OS you had nothing but problems, it looks like nowadays most brands are pretty decent

If you can fit a big block engine in it that will make it even faster as you can go up more teeth

Stop leaning your engine pal it was at its best on the first run ! Simply change your clutch bell , go up 2 teeth , If your running a 12 tooth pinion put a 14 tooth on , you will then get 45mph 😉 Don't go much over 2 teeth as you will start to burn out your clutch , 2 teeth should be fine though , iv had nitro cars for many years

Great info, looking to get this truck. Thanks for sharing, appreciated👍🏼

so leann. you damage the engine

You want that engine to be heated to about 200°-220°F before every start. As soon as it starts, it will cool down slightly from your preheat temp, then it will slowly heat up as it runs. It will start faster and last longer if preheated to 210°f each time, no matter the day temp. Lockable hemostats snapped on the carb feed line first, so it doesn't "hot wick" fuel to the carb and then hydrolock. Make a soda pop can heat shield to place around the carb to keep from overheating and wicking fuel into the motor during preheat.. Once you do this and do it well, it will fire right off when touched with the Rotostart. Your Rotostart driver, battery, and engine will thank you. Bought my first Savage 25 RTR when released in August of 2003. Wish I would have kept it. Might need a new one.

Had a 03 Savage 25, right when they released. The aftermarket was crazy back then with instant gratification to needed fixes. Good luck finding that aftermarket now. Won MANY races back then, once a few things were sorted. Ended up with an reverse delete extended chassis and a Ed Bridges Nova .28 8 port with a 3 shoe alum. Put a heat gun on that new motor for break-in tanks. You want 200-210°F, before it ever sees the Rotostart. Cover the carb with a chunk of alum can for a heat shield as you preheat. Lockable hemostats on the engine fuel line so you don't hydrolock. I still preheat all of my engines, no matter the gallons thru. They start soo much easier, and easier on the Rotostart and starter boxes. I actually still use the Rotostart assembly on several models I have. Remember the early aftermarket I talked about?. You could get the bits to fit a Rotostart to just about ANY engine back then. Thanks for the Vid.

Man that thing doesn't sound good at all bro.

Is there a 2 speed option for it?

Simple, just what i was looking for. Your rig looks tidy! 👌🏼

Ridiculous

Team savage

Nitro is the Glory 🏎️💨

Nice video. I did one on this truck recently and found that if you vent the body in the rear, that truck will do 55 MPH totally stock on 3s. It will still want to stand up but not nearly as badly.

Awesome truck and nice shots man! I'd say 2S is plenty fast for this rig 😁

Very nice, bro. I need to try this. What I use and works for me is a degreaser I get from the dollar tree and I pretty much do it how you do with the hose and a small brush to get all the gunk and dirt off, and I use the compressor as well to dry it off.

That’s way more work than you have to do. Just buy the extended lugs. They basically threaded shafts with a nut milled on the end. Good video none the less. Many people don’t know about either option.

Boring

Sounds Lean on low speed needle

I'm thinking of swapping out the stock engine with a Nova, but I don't know if I will need an adapter or not and I don't want to order the engine and find out I can't use it. Has anyone done an engine swap on one of these yet?

ace vid - thank you 👊🏼

Love the lunchbox, I have an original one I just stripped down and am currently doing back up. Can't wait to get it running again...😎

I like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Houston we have a problem, the transmission will not shift 🤠🇬🇧🙏🤘

Nitro supplies more Smiles per gallon 🏎️💨

Hey man, congrats on getting your bike test. Bikes an rcs are a very common combo. I had bikes for years before discovering RC. Love your channel so hang in there. Safe riding man, don't forget your life saver, and watch out for wet road paint and manholes!

The body's dont come cut. Which was upsetting. I suppose its the Lexan tools and dremel with a fine gritt to do so. Still love my tmaxx

Someone gave me one of these and it's been sitting and for a year now and was wondering where i can get upgradeable parts for this beast.

Hey man you had any gearbox issues with the XL savage? Your first video on it didn't seem like it was changing gear
