ok so it started life as a savage x 4.6, then after tearing down for a cleanup, I added the cen genesis shocks, a-arms form the savvy 25, f / r skids from a 21, bead blasted center skid plate, cooling head and motor mount.... same hpi 4.6 (still has mad compression), it rides lower now and handles much better, updated the brakes to the stainless disc kit and the thing can flip forward if I stop hard.... thing is a beast....

^ Well Integra did make a snide comment in his last post (which is not unusual of him) but it did not look bad enough to warrant deletion of half a page[sm=confused.gif][sm=bananahead.gif]

Wow big surprise, another post deleting spree by the corporate sellouts. What the hell is wrong with you people? This forum really is crap... Companies pay the administration to prevent promotion of anything other than their overpriced garbage... 5AVAG3 really has something great in his nylon cage, it is essentially the only thing on the market right now that will hold up, but I guess the corporations with more money than engineering skills always win...

And yes, this comment will be continually re-posted after deletion until a sellout *cough* I mean moderator offers an explanation.

i agree. this is a discussion forum. we should be able to discuss anything as long as it's on topic. just because we are sharing our opinions on something doesn't mean that you moderators have to block it out because you don't agree. it's not like we are advertising anything illegal (i hope) or cussing anyone out. go find a hobby (lol) and leave us alone.

can you see the irony in that last sentance?

I happen to be a member of numerous other R/C forums, and none of them are in bed with their sponsors...

When I signed up here, I expected freedom of discussion; the sharing of ideas to enhance the R/C hobby for all members. However it seems the only thing the administration cares about is raking in the cash from the companies in the ad banners...

If forums are so controlled by the mods who are controlled by the sponsors who does not allow for truth to be told about products on the market. This makes the whole operation a lot less credible for the members, customers and all consumers.

How can you guys believe what they say about products for your RCs which you pay top dollars for?

Do you guys think....you are being fooled or what?[:'(]

I tottally understand what you are saying. They do not take you off if you are talking about the quality of a product. I think that if you want to sell something you should go to the marketplace. It seems as though your posts were deleted based on the fact that you posts were sales pitches and not an opinion on a product at all.

So, if you can see that as an opinion without going off the handle then you are good to go.

There is alot of good information here....

There are guys that put Integy on blast and did not hold back any type of critisism and there posts were not deleted. I again have to assume that your posts were deleted based on content and wording. Now, I think if you had posted it as a look what I made and others were interested in your project and asked how they could get one, you would have been in better shape.

No discussion of sales allowed in the forums, just FYI. That goes for "OMG I HAZ MAI SAVIJ FR SAYL!" and "U GUISE WNT MAI THING I MAYD?"

Though I think they rule a bit heavy-handed in most cases, this case I don't think so

oh, and
