Hey slim, you arent proving anyone wrong, you would just be backing your point. Nonetheless, even if you truck is brawlic, lining it up against a stock stampede is like putting a poodle in the ring with a pitbull. But, we all have our fantasies. I plan on being in California in the upcoming months and if you havent blown up your rocket truck, I'll look you up when I get out there. I usually travel with a vehicle to keep me entertained and would love to line em up. Unlike you, I make no claims about speed...I know my vehicles are fast and leave it at that. BUT, I know my electric vehicles would hand your XTM powered Savage it's teeth.

A video camera doesn't mean anything, a accurately recorded speed claim does though.

When your savage can beat this I will say nitro is faster than electric!

Electric motors will always have more power potential due to the effiency being quite abit higher. Some brushless motors approach 90% where the best any internal combustion motor could ever achieve is somewhere around 45%.
