New from HPI, a bigger Savage with a bigger, more powerful engine! Chassis is extended 3mm, beefed up gears, aluminum clutch shoes, aggressive spiked tires and a heavy duty steering servo.

Now for the link.

was just lookin at that like 20 mins ago, was very impressed, but the price tag, made me depressed. :( but hey, you get wat you pay for, might be gettin a firestorm 10t nitro soon, perfectly happy with it, but this, wow, ultimate off road machine!

Im not even joking I sold my savage and revo 2 weeks ago when i found out this was coming out. I didnt sell them specifically for this, i sold my revo cause it was getting all funny and starting to reach the end of easy road to the point where serioud work needed on it, when i heard about this from my Hobby manager, i sold my savage and my revo together, and now we wait...

Hpi is a good brand just never cared for the savage i owned a few and just did not like them pain in the butt to work imo.Didn't like the design of the truck to much clutter

That clutter is durability X 10, Once you get that baby tuned ( which is a pain i must agree) the maintenance is non existant when it comes to broken parts and such...the added size of the XL and the new suspension design (kind of) is just what the doctor ordered...

I dont have that kind of money... I'm thinking of getting a nitro rc in august... my budget will be $300 for getting it and gas to last untill winter(1-2 gallons)

Do they make tutorials/directions on how to tune engines?

Once you get it a really good site to go to is RCUniverse, they have sections for almost every rc made.
