Teehee well this has taken off! love the tank.. got one myself but it wouldnt work so i swapped it for a bb gun lol

And actually.. mr dog.. your wrong
The savage is 1/8th scale, which is nitro (the one with the red shell flying through the air)
And the petrol ones you talk about are 1/5th scale and they run on a mix of unleaded petrol and two stroke oil

The lower the number, the bigger the scale of the car.. i have from an ickle 1/16th to a massive 1/5th hehe

I'd say the most managable scale would be either 1/8th or 1/10th..

Must get the savage going again.. oh i miss the double backflips and front flips 15ft in the air!

[666junky]

I was a bit like that when i forked out £320 for the savage... now its closer to £800 spent on it, but i still throw it over jumps and tear it about its part of the fun!

[joe_m]

Well I was wrong on the scales.... I always get sizes wrong

By the way anyone want to buy one, each will come with millions of spares and different shells, wheels, tyres etc.

I am after a battery, and a charger....

Nope sorry the only battery I have is a 2000 one, its not even worth having realy only lasts 3 minutes in my Tl01 i dont want to get rid of all of them, im not sure which one too keep i think i meet build up the sandmaster and keep that one then get rid of the rest. I did like the plug and play of my leccy car though.

very nice
How does the mardave cope with that motor? it looks like a 20turn? and on 6 cells! im guessing you raced it rather than banger racing?
And is the 18th truggy an RC18?

righty. maybe when i have enough money to make a few 'impulse buys'. id love to make a 1/5th scale petrol version of my mini. we could have races and the model would win hands down.
