RE: convince me!!!!!
If you really want to have a fast machine, grab a Mugen MBX5T Prospec off of Ebay, the racers are moving on to newer more modern chassies and there is a bunch selling for cheap right now. We went out and ran my X Savage with the Picco 27 in it against the MBX5T with a Picco 27 in it and it was ugly. My son was driving the MBX5T and it made the Savage look slow and silly. While I was trying to get the front wheels down to catch him, he was already there and gone. It smoked the Savage on top end, acceleration, climbing, jumping, everything but wheelies. The Savage is a great platform and fun to drive, but yesterday, it was just another object for him to avoid. Glen
