RE: savage sucks big time
I just got mine on friday so i have no bad news on the savage. I'm on my second tank of fuel on the break in process and it has lots of power and i havent even touched the needles yet. Maybe you just got a bad one, did you cal hpi when you had the problems to see if they would warrenty any of it. I know i had a 2.5 t-maxx and it had issues and traxxas would not help at all and that didnt sit well with me so i no longer up talk traxxas. That t-maxx i had was a money pit from the start. Best of luck bro
