15 pages.... i stopped reading after page 5 so i dont know what this thread is really about. what i DO know is that my .12 RC10GT can destroy any truck at the track, top speed of 51 mph, can do 6 backflips on a 3 foot jump, and has NEVER broken anything in the 7 years i've run it (i put in diamond a-arms, and cryptonite shock mounts). yes its the best truck in the universe. there is no comparison in all categories. revo? savage? bleh.. super10gt all the way.


i might have exagerated a little... but it's still the best truck in the universe. i have hard, repeatable, undeniable proof. i got videos somewhere of my baby surviving a tumble down a 300 foot gorge, rolling into the stream upside down, washing onshore, and me driving it out. <- that's bashing (you wimps)


that is all.

i'll bet a nickle i get one person to take this seriously

this is funny.............Guys we are arguing about toys......I hope your just having fun and not taking this too seriously ?? anyways its all good, you like REVO, I like both....I will continue to argue for fun, but to be honest I really couldn't care less.....But sometimes having some freindly debate is quite entertaining, especialy amongst adults........anyways Merry Christmas, and Happy new Year from Winterpeg manitoba....I am off work for a few days and have been pretty bored, so arguing about toys seems like the thing to do............to be honest this Savage is fast, How fast ??? who knows, but we are good tuners and would love to be able to race a few of you boys.....win or lose as long as beer is involved LOL and I break every single RC vehicle i play with no matter the brand, I am a butcher LOL....the Revo breaks and so does the Savage.....I am actualy very pleased to hear how much you guys back the REVO as a basher...


Great attitude. THat's the spirit!

I agree. It's all in the fun of entertainment.

wow...Way TO LONG OF A POST..WAY TOO LONG.....haha.............i still agree with supertib.......race/bash/fast/slow/fun......and argue bout toys..haha

uh oh....

lol. on a track, probably yes. as for bashing people say savages are the toughest. i have no personal experience with a savage, but the revo is a really tough truck aswell. people have mixed opinions on these comparisons, so get ready for a mixed view.....

....on the other hand, were on a Traxxas board so maybe not, as there is naturally gonna be some bias

I have a friend who has like 14 trucks/buggies... which include an LST2, Revo 3.3, Savage and Savage X... he HATES the Savages... and his two trucks he drives the most are the Revo 3.3 and the LST2... *shrug* Savage hasn't really impressed me much... but some people like it.
