Nice find Ross.
A bit pricey though.

I'd say.... 4 knuckles and a steering rack for $235 ????? Yeah, OK...

 

[rossb]

I'm just gonna race what I already have and let the chips fall where they may.

Nice find... Very expensive, but I'm pretty sure thats just retail. Still....

been waiting for someone to make a rear hub like that.. but not worth what they want for it

 

[jmcnittsavage1]

yeah that is sweet the weakest part of my savy is the rear turnbuckles. If i have any problems with my savy it is usally those. they wear out and one bad landing later they are right of again and again.

LMFAO are you serious?

 

[wannarunem]

lol..yes, i wasn't kidding......

 

[sweetdiesel]

Now why do you feel that they stole the design from skip? I used to run a set of skips plates and though they are nice, I can't say they were original.

You do realize that there were folks that were making LCG TVPs before skip.

They are not "THAT" expensive.They do include a engine plate too.

lol thats ok i was in mobile al. at a hobbie shop, one of the guys working there was looking at my truck. he looked at his buddy and me and said its sad, they stold that idea from my friend, the other guy said yea thats bs. I started laughing, and told them that t.t. lcg tvps come from cally. and the guy that makes them has been doing it for 2 or 3 years. so what he drove all the way here and took that idea? man i was trying to make lcg tvp's, befor i ever new or heard that others where makeing them. so thats crazy to think that anyone stold that idea from someone.

Doesn't work with universal joints.

HPI also has the new "X" chassis which is supposed to lower the truck.

You know, with the new .20 engine coming out for the revo, it's really going to be pucker time for HPI. They better be designing something cool for the average racer/basher out there. Maybe a center diff mod for the savage along with all the savage-x crap. Also throw in some shorter beefier shocks... wait a sec, didn't they just release the hell fire? Haven't heard much about that either... anyone?
