Default RE: Building a Buggy Eating Savage

The trucks have been shelved over the last couple months.
Did the new shell over christmas and fitted digital radio gear. I have a bunch of other mods ready to go on when i get time, including digital steering servo which will make a big difference.
Also ordered some Losi LST shocks and yellow springs (stiff) which will look good with the body.
Found some free time today to get out with a couple trucks so took the XL for some bashing on a muddy field and the race modded Savage for a few test runs along the road.
This is still very much a work in progress. Wheel alignment is way off, tuning wasnt great, plug was probably too cold, but i couldnt resist putting a little dirt on it.

That was a rather sticky field.
