Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / May 2006It's a sad day...
...for I have decided the collection has to be trimmed, and when I say trimmed, I mean, to nothing :-( Moving abroad to Canada for 9 months on a kinda work/travel deal, and the cash freed up from the RCs will be most welcomed. The Sav will be stripped of mods to be flogged off seperately, the RC18MT, TS4N and big block T-Maxx will just go 'as they are'. Obviously, the second I get back, I'll be having something new ;-) Who knows, maybe I won't get a Sav - quite fancy an LST2 or a Revo 3.3....  SignatureDan Heck, in 9mos. the Savage Z-S2 should be out! =) Drink some beer while your there, eh?

Heh, I'll post pics and a long, long list on the group, or I'll put it all online and link to those that want to see, so as to avoid being flamed for spamming :-) It'll be about a month yet, gotta finish Uni first ;-) SignatureDan > ...for I have decided the collection has to be trimmed, and when I say > trimmed, I mean, to nothing :-( [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Who knows, maybe I won't get a Sav - quite fancy an LST2 or a Revo 3.3....

Starting off in Toronto till I get settled, then maybe travel around a bit. We'll see :) SignatureDan > ...for I have decided the collection has to be trimmed, and when I say > trimmed, I mean, to nothing :-( [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Who knows, maybe I won't get a Sav - quite fancy an LST2 or a Revo 3.3.... Dood! You know you'll never get 1/2 of what you paid for them back, so why not fill the motors full of oil and leave em' be? Why not ship em' to Canada so you can have some fun while yer' abroad? I'll never sell any of my collection as I realize I'll never get enough $$$ out of them to make it worthwhile!

Yea I know, but the cash will come in, and it gives the chance for a shiny new truck when I return :-) I'm fancying an LST2 - dunno why really, of course, it'll be over a year from now when I get another, so we'll see what's shiny and new then...

I was talking to the guys who run MT's at the track last week and they're not too keen on the LST or the LST 2 for durability reasons. The Savages, as unmanouverable as they are, are still kicking every other MT's a.s out there, including the Revos, AND it's a tight, technical track to boot. I couldn't believe it; I thought for sure the LST2 would kick a Savage's a.s on-track.

If the best drivers at the track prefer Savages, then by golly they'll figure out how to win with them. Technically, there's no way a Savage should out-handle a Revo, but the driver makes a *world* of difference. SignatureJustin Mahn > Popularity breeds success, not the other way around.

I'll agree with that 100%; didn't think of it that way when I was speaking with the guys at the track. Any you're right, there is no physical way a Savage will out manouver a Revo, or a T-Maxx for that matter!

You best not do it again ;-) SignatureDan >> Wow I think I just got modded +5 insightful. *Grin* I usually don't >> post anything nearly this intelligent. > > You best not do it again ;-) Yeah, we might start thinking he's ill or something! <g> In all seriousness, it was an intelligent and insightful post and hit on an area I completely overlooked.
