I noticed that the Schumacher Menice has a 3 speed Trans... And they claim it will go up to 70 MPH. Has anyone heard of an aftermarket 3speed for savage..

Just a little thought crossed my mind..

Savage + Picco 26 + 3 speed Trans= 1 Savage with a lot of attitude!!

i think that would be kinda cool...but i thought the point of the savage was to go PRETTY not really fast and hit anything and not break

God I love the sattire. So you wanna make it a porsche??? Could be done if you want I guess I have learned that almost anything can be done but is it worth it?? You would have to ask yourself the value of that.
 
Let me ask you this: Why get a 15 pound monster truck with 7" wheels and the bulkiest parts ever, and go for all out speed? A three speed is only good for two things, Mad Force, and Top Speed. The picco .26 you have is probably fast enough...but hey, if you really wanna spend money, get a new era dragster.
 
i think a 3 speed on a savage would be pointless or defeat the purpose of owning one of the best MT out there.... Plus the Schumacher Menace is in a different category than the Savage.. more like the EVO 3 RTR....

if you wanna do 70+ then get a On-Road car.... do 70+ and a slight turn... flip, flip, flip, flip, break, flip, break, flip..
 
Man you guys are brutal!

If there were an easy 3 speed conversion for my Savage I would drop one in too. The Mad Force has one and if you have ever driven one, you too know how badass they are!

Just because an MT would have 3 speeds, doesn't mean you will always hit 3rd. But hell, if its there and you can..... I know I would certainly take it to the local BMX track just so I could make the TRIPLE with it. Currently the best I have seen done is the double. And my rides dont come apart on landing. The key, land them properly.

cowboynv - I havent seen a 3 speed coversion yet. I would venture to say that someone has already done it. I just havent seen a production one for sale. Keep us posted if you find one.
 
Team Losi's new monster truck has a 4 speed trans. It also has two steering servos. Saw the flyer at my LHS....$599...out in may
 
Has anyone seen anything more substantial on this losi mt? I'd like a link or pictures of it.
 
The only thing I have seen is the fly. It did not have a very good pic though. I will see if I can get a copy and scan it. You LHS should have the flyer. It has all the stats on it.
