RE: PICS OF YOUR SAVAGES !!
Wow, there are some nice Savages around here...
Well, here's mine:
Savage XL
-Pull start
-Ofna 086 exhaust (only had like 10 minutes with it on before my radio messed up)
-Spectrum DX3 coming in the next couple weeks
-~2 gallons through the 5.9, just made the switch to O'Donnell's 25%
Ignore the messy porch and sink...***
Not sure what happened here, but they are practically melted in the center, almost rounded right out. Not much braking power lol... Just ordered new shoes, disks, CB, SG, and clutch shoes from my LHS so that will be fixed soon.

Stock parts:
diff case (upgrading to X style soon)
a-arms
shocktowers (upgrading to X-style soon)
so basically just the a-arms, lol.
And about that spot for one more zip tie, its filled now. The cage is almost completely covered now, lol. That way it won't get scratched.
The "tube" is solid 12mm thick rod, made from nylon. So far its held up really well. I have seen vids of it being dropped of roofs (landing on the cage) no problem. So, I am not worried yet.

They're OK. I like Losi Zombie-maxx better.
IMO the Badlands have a too-high sidewall, so they wallow in and out of shape too much. I have green Panther foams in mine, and even then they don't hold their shape too well.

RE: PICS OF YOUR SAVAGES !!
if refereing to me, no friend, no vids yet. Soon, i'm waiting on my hobbycity 3s lipos that have been back ordered for the longest time. If I get antsy i'll buy more expensive packs that are available for immediate delivery, but I'd like to see what the buzz is all about with the zippy packs.

This picture was taken by a newspaper photographer and was in the newspaper. I did not see it in the paper but that is pretty cool I thought. Not the first time I have been in the paper but the first time my Savage XL made the paper so I thought I would share the photo.

I missed it in the paper but I am pretty sure it was about being out in the decent weather after winter broke. I could be wrong though.

RE: PICS OF YOUR SAVAGES !!
here are some picture of my savage x 4.6, i painted the roll bar and the radio box lid i couldn't drive it so i figured i would do some custom painting on it till i can. i also cut out the windows on the body and put some screen in its place and to top it off i painted the screen silver i plan to do more i want to paint the TVC Chassis plates as well, im thinking Metallic silver maybe. i also have a red heat sink coming to replace the purple one.
