Hi, To everyone at HPI I would like to thank you for making a truck that is virtually indestructible. So far I have made a custom air filter adaptor to keep the filter cleaner longer, which seems to perform very well. I have also added a two stage air filter. HPI ribbed aluminium pipe, 49t spur and 16t clutch bell, 3 shoe clutch, adjustable turnbuckles, aluminium steering plate with bearings, alloy tank guard, throttle linkage kit, 6volt battery pack with fail safe, 4 spider diff mod, hitec hi torque metal gear steering servo, reverse module, Heavy Duty dogs and cups and twin steel brake. I have also added a inline fuel filter and fully adjustable alloy shocks. I have to add that non of the parts replaced was due to any breakages. I have owned the savage for over a year now and have taken it to hell and back without a single breakdown. I have friends with t-maxx's and they are forever repairing their trucks. Mind you their trucks cant keep up with my savage. And they cant hit 8-10 ft jumps like I can. The only other thing I'd like to do is put in a bigger engine. But that wont happen until you guys release a 26 or 28. As I have a lot less trouble keeping my engine tuned than other guys I race who have the picco's and at the moment the 21 with the 25 head runs like a dream even after 15Lt's of 30% fuel run through it. Just want to say thanks again and that you guys rock. Hope you like the savage from Down Under in Australia. Sorry that I raved on but I absolutely love my truck and cant stop telling everyone how good it is.
P.S the HPI Forum has been very helpful, keep it up

This is my Ford 150 RS4 2, togethet with the Corvette of my racebuddy a RS4 3 rtr. We live in Barneveld in the Netherlands, The only hopup on the Ford is a faster exhaust system, and i chose a bright yellow fluoresend paint job. We race often late at the evening, and with the bright color I can keep a good look at the car and the curbs. The corvette is equiped with a better exhaust, 2speed transmission and lots more. However I still manage to outrun the corvette ???
Even I dont get that ?????
I'f just started with a Nitro MT2, Absolutly great driving. maybe soon some other pics of that wonder on wheels.
