Features:

 


 

Full-time shaft driven 4WD system for maximum grip, power and grunt!

Wide-track suspension gives you smooth driving and great handling - nearly 17 inches (43cm) wide!

Eight long-stroke oil-filled shock absorbers provide confidence over the jumps and on big-air landings.

Adjustable 2-speed transmission set with hardened metal gears gives you great acceleration and top speed!

Massive 160cc fuel tank for long run times and huge amounts of bashing and racing fun.

X-style clipless radio box protects the electronics from splashes, dirt and more.

Lightweight suspension arms improve suspension action and give great response in corners and over bumps.

Full set of rubber-sealed ball bearings for maximum efficiency and power from the engine.

Stiff racing springs for superb driving feel and best suspension action. Adjustable turnbuckles.

Hardened 4-gear diff setup can handle the abuse of high-horsepower engines like the F4.6.

Cam-type servo saver steering arms improve the efficiency and power of the steering servo.

Radio box features openings for a battery charging jack and illuminated Battery Level Indicator (not included).

The low centre of gravity chassis drops the engine, centre gearbox and radio 5mm lower than the Savage 25, resulting in better handling and faster lap times.

Large 17mm metal alloy hex hubs hold the wheels securely and prevent the hex stripping in the wheels under heavy load applications.

New lightweight GT-2 tyres with aggressive tread pattern for excellent all-terrain traction and long tyre lifetime. To add cool looks, the GT-2 tyres are mounted and pre-glued on Chrome Warlock wheels.

Included is an optional nylon roll cage which will help protect your engine and heat sink. It can be mounted with almost every Savage bodyshell but requires additional cutting on your bodyshell.
