Trouble with those is when you hit stuff or land badly they bend and don't return plus they transfer the force into other things like the chassis and bend that instead/as well.

Hi again,
 
As I'm not running the car today, I'm playing about with my new account on here instead.
 
I'd just like to offer a 'historic' pic of when I used to own a Savage 'XL'...
 
 
This was taken at a place called 'Canada Heights' in Swanley which is actually a Motorcross track !
 
Despite me coming to hate this particular truck, this outing was actually quite successful....
 
All the best,
 
Dave

This is my

Hpi savage x 4.1

I brought it off ebay Pretty much standard apart from me doing:

New pull start

Stripped and rebuilt shocks using 35wt silicon oil

Deep clean of the whole truck

Reprinted wheels in white with black spokes and rattle can lacquered (to cause a reaction with the acrylic based paints so it looks more like a stressed worn effect)

Looking to do loads more to it in the future
