I live in a pretty rural area....up on a mountain...I drive it down our dirt driveway, on the paved road, through the ditch, the neighbors yard, antagonize the dogs....all the fun stuff...it really screams....I would like a different pipe..better servo saver, stronger dog bones and I have heard the wheels strip out due to the torque....so porbably different wheels too.

Reglue tires....was this in regards to the wheel comment? What I understood the problem to be was in the drive collar of the wheel...too soft and it would strip....yeah let me know what else...do you spend anytime on the savage forums?

Nott much are there any good ones ? I do goto the savage forum on the HPI site but not much !

As for the color things yes they do strip out a lot, I probally have like 5 more hard runs befor I looks a rear tire ! O have extras though ! I also sugjest starting to buy 2 of everything, if you ever brake you will be mad if you have to wait for parts. Also shopping direct from HPI is a lot easyer than going to the hobbie shop !
