my savage 21 turned "x"
 
heres my savage 21 turned x.
axial 28 spec 1s
jr racing steering servo
hitec throttle/brake servo
3 speed tranny
had rev mod but the stupid small gear in it broke into parts
x shocks, engine plate, x lcg tvp's, x roll bar.

the lights work as you can see i have them hook up to a 7.2 pack that i have mounted to an extra radio box cover.
as you can see in most pics has the stock tires on it witch i hate, now has the 4.6 ss dirt bonz tires on it which are amazing.
i have alot of parts on the way including hpi big bores, aluminum cups and 4 bevel gears for the diffs, and a ton more.

nice truck man. never had a savage personally. but they're nice

badass_savage 11-29-2008 05:32 PM

yea thing is amazing and a ton of fun, and with the axial its crazy, does backflips if i nail it. the drivetrain is suffering bad though from the motor, ive had to replace everything.

guitarboy911 11-29-2008 05:39 PM

haha yeah i know what you mean i have nitro too

badass_savage 11-29-2008 11:25 PM

nothing like the smell of nitro to wake ya up

stang_racer 11-29-2008 11:30 PM

hey wanna tip? if you turn your muffle back down it will be better because the oil wont build up inside the pipe till it finaly flows out the hole. :D and nice truck btw, lol the lights would last long in a hard bashing lol

badass_savage 11-29-2008 11:36 PM

actually havnt had a problem with the pipe like that, makes it slot easier to see the trail of smoke, the pipe is at a slight angle downwards along with the stinger facing the ground by 10 degrees or so so no oil buildup, actully seems to run better. Its the ceap version of a mean side exhaust and its no different then the tias side exhaust pipe, with the way i drive theres no chance of oil buildup haha. And yup the lights are crazy bright love um, I'm starting to wire some LEDs up aswel

my new tuned pipe.

this pipe is amazing, all i can say is WOWWWWW
they wernt kidding when they said its loud, this thing will hurt your ears in enclosed spaces like my garage! but it sounds soooooo cool.
overall the cost was about $66 through towerhobbies, including the pipe, new couplers, 2 different types of defectors, and the 90*
fitting.
i mounted it a different way then what others were doing, instead of the plane kit thing ive seen people used i just cut the stock pipe holders square head off and drilled a hole through the tip, then took a small zip tie and threaded it through a piece of full tube and wrapped it around the pipe and through the hole in the mount. works great and its very steardy.

I have about four savage X shocks upstairs, stock ones.
Let me know if you need them, you pay shipping.

badass_savage 12-31-2008 10:37 AM

its alright man thanks tho, got a bunch of extras.

torredo 12-31-2008 12:24 PM

although there is some stuff done to this truck, looks stock form to me?
still cool to see another savage though!

badass_savage 12-31-2008 12:30 PM

it started out as a savage 21 so theres alot done, there are very few stock parts, i spend money wisely and buy whats needed, not for the bling factor. it may "look" stock but trust me its not haha. i have a bunch of stuff that should be coming in the mail today or tomorrow.
with that pipe it hauls A**

torredo 12-31-2008 08:35 PM

thats another thing i was gonna ask...why lead it up front?
to me that seems like it make quite the mess?

badass_savage 01-01-2009 11:31 AM

nope no mess I have it pointed down right in front of the a arm so the mess goes to the ground not all over the truck. If u knew about the pipe ud know why is going there

torredo 01-01-2009 06:43 PM

w/e, i think the pipe looks like crap imho.
why not a rear exit exhaust. ive seen them out there
/

badass_savage 01-02-2009 04:50 PM

thats why we all have our own trucks so we can do what we want. i mean when i look at your truck theres ALOT i dont like and wouldnt do but its not mine, its whatever makes you happy.
the rear exit's suck, one bad landing and its getting trashed.
with the macs pipe you take function of form. watch my vids you will see.
