I took a trip to ELDO RC in El Dorado Arkansas 5/11. Truck held up well till about 3 minutes left in the truggy main when the screw for the exhaust hanger backed out in the rhythm section and the pipe got ripped off.

I need some hub extension badly and get the tuning down some more, I was casing one double in the middle of the track with a short run up if I hit it wrong. All in all it was a better outing but definitely for improvement.

I met the Team Associated team manager, Drew Spurgeon and he was enamored with how cool the savage was and reminded him of when he used to run the MT class a long time ago. He helped pit and tune a little which was greatly appreciated.
