Just started up the Savage for the first time, it's not as quick as my SSK, though it's more stable and handles a LOT better!!

Who ordered the rain?

not watched the DVD yet but read the manual so know everything.. The run-in sounds boring tho... but then again i could upgrade to the 3.3 engine soon.

The run-in is fairly boring but it's worth it in the long run IMO.

Also gets you used to handling the car before driving it flat out.

At Colchester (Easthorpe)we have a 1/10th touring car circuit, and now just behind it we have an off-road track just been laid out.

The on-road track is racing on every Sunday 9am til 2pm and the off-road is wednesday nights 5pm till dark.
at the moment the off-road is not as serious as the on road and you can pretty much just turn up and have a blast with what every you have, be it 1/10th electric, 1/8th buggies or monster trucks etc, (think there is a £3 charge)

More details can be found on the web site below:-
