They are also coming out with a Savage 5R which is a rally car version with a Subaru body.

Sadly, they are not slated to be released in the USA.

If they are realesed in the Asia market, I can get it. For friends I am willing to help out the addiction and shipping is not a problem.

You da man! I will take you up on this offer when the 5R is released as long as it is not insanely expensive.

Absolutely Dom, I will keep my eyes open and see what appears. If they are available the LHS can order it. I mean the space in front of the gearbox on the Savage 5T you could put a couple 6s. (evil grin)
 
Wow, they just released a Savage XL not too long ago! No way that 5.9 can power that whole monster. It looks like it needs more torque.

I went to my LHS and they had not heard of the 5R yet but I will keep up on it.....however they did have a bad A** 1/8+ scale electric touring roller.

Thanks for checking! If you happen to go back to the LHS I'd love to see pics of that 1/8 scale electric touring roller. ;)
 
The 5R can be seen in this vid of a hobby show in Japan.

Well I have been to two shops here in Okinawa and they both wanted OVER $1000 for a Savage 5T. I was in horror. How can they justify that price on a Savage? I mean really? I have a couple more places to check and that is all I have on the island. That sucks HPI! If it had a modded Novarossi on it I "might" pay that but....damn.I don't think they will sell any of these. not even a fuelie.....what a rip off.
