Well tonight i finally got round to fitting the Hardcore Racing bits to my
Sav :)  Apologies for the lack of inspirational backdrop for the truck!
Stuff fitted on really well, and being titanium, should be niiiiice and
tough, and give me sparks on landing :)  Also apologies for the state of my
shell, I know i need a new one, as that one is a complete mess!

I like the armor..very cool...I like the jumbo wheels/tires as well...
I would however remove the exhaust deflector for better performance...
Oh,... and you need a new shell.. =)

You think that body is bad?  He he he, you should see the POS I have on my
truck right now.  To the OP, your body ain't bad at all man!

BTW, like the armor.

Cheers dude :)  Somehow, the body has a hole in the bonnet, dunno quite how
i did that - i suspect K4.6 induced wheelies caused it :D

Ah but without the deflector my lovely wheels get covered in gunk (at
least,one of them does) and I burn my finger trying to kill the engine :D

The wheels are Proline Velocity 6 40 series, and the tyres are Dirt Hawgs,
totally transformed the handling of the truck, so much better now :)

HA!  Nice pics :)

I'll really have to get off my bum and take some pics of my Savage.  Its all
together now too!  Body is on its way and should be here any day now...

I'd love to see sparks on landing <evil grin>, maybe I need to fit a metal
rear skidplate, hehehehe

Cheers Dre

Ally won't won't give sparks, you need titanium, and they're hideously
expensive - unless, like me, you find a convenient set on Ebay ;)  I plan to
get videos of the sparks :)

Now I have -
