I guess 60 mph in a savage is not impressive. I guess I have to shoot for more. Dont worry I have plenty left under my sleeve to reach higher and higher

echthelion

i think brushless has spoiled people on speed and on how easy it is to just up your pinion/battery and your going 60 on any kit

llkoolskillet

maybe so but this is nitro[>:]

echthelion

i know but i mean seeing 60mph anything doesn't seem to impressbecause so many do it with no work

unlike nitros(not counting onroad) where it takes more work then just a higher cell battery

i myself think a 60mph savage is crazy i just got a losi xxl amonth ago and i thought 40mph was slow till i had the xxl doing 40 and my first speed pass had me very very happy with only 40 lol

llkoolskillet

I can see your point with BL. I do have a flux xl with center diff that goes 60. Yes it's fast but like you said it's not that impressive. To me what is impressive is a nitro savage breaking 60mph. Now how many nitro savages have you seen break 60!

Tonystark

very impressive skillet. u were 59 for awhile, happy to see 60. keep going.

llkoolskillet

Thank you

Today I officially mounted the tallest gearing combo ever to the savage, final drive of 1.7 hehe I so can't wait to run

ejc34710

Way to go skillet! That's quite fast for one of these big doods. Now dont come back till u hit 70mph. J/K.

llkoolskillet

i see you have cf plates now ,,,,, you dont seem to post on here why ?

llkoolskillet

IDK maybe cause I have a build thread already and this forum has really died since I first joined up. Its still a great place but this section doesnt have much traffic these days

sshine440

LL its all about doing the right thing.

llkoolskillet

What are you talking about?

sshine440

enjoying life and picking the stars as they fall.

llkoolskillet

Im straight chillin where you at?

llkoolskillet

This is what 30,000+rpm sounds like in a savage at 61.2mph I am still under geared at the moment so 65mph is a true reality now. 70mph may just happen.

Yeah Skillet I am pretty sure it is doable. Just that spur exploding sucks and the cooling head was not looking too happy either. But that is the name of the game right? I am pretty sure you are going to hit the 65MPH mark pretty soon if you can just keep the driveline together..lol

llkoolskillet

I got a new video

The problem is not the drive line but the steering, I was fighting it all day and boy was it bad but the numbers are good, nice little gain i guess, but Ive got lots more to go, I havent begun to use up my other options yet.

llkoolskillet

[X(] BOOM [X(]

Would have passed 70mph but the wind and my steering was horrible, kept fighting the steering. Plus lets not forget im going up hill too.

ejc34710
