Default Are they coming out with a 2 stroke gas savage

Are they coming out with a 2 stroke gas savage or is it just rumours.

If so can you put this 2 stroke gas engine in a normal savage

Not sure if Hpi is putting one out but it has been done quite a few times already.

The rumor I heard is that because the Baja 5B has a "B" at the end (meaning buggy), they might have a Baja 5T (truck).

That would be nice; I hope they mate the fuelie engine to a 2speed tranny and include a center diff between the front and rear drive shafts.

Gas Savage 5th scale? That would so rule, I better start saving up cash if such a beast is coming out!

ORIGINAL: IBrakeForNobody

The rumor I heard is that because the Baja 5B has a "B" at the end (meaning buggy), they might have a Baja 5T (truck).
That rumor was started by HPI back when the Baja first came out. The lead engineer stated that they *may* do a truck later on. It's been a couple of years now, so they may or may not have one in the making. It would be cool to see a truck. I think a pre runner/trophy truck style is what they'd release if they did it, but it would be nice to see a monster.

As for a gas Savage? It's doubtful they'd do one. You'd see a .32 powered Savage before a gasser.
