I love my SavageFLUX, but I need new batteries as my originals have gotten a bit puffy :(

You've got easy access to desert type areas too. I'd have all kinds of fun with a monster like that in that terrain. Count me jealous :D
It is large and in charge. Here it is against 1:10,and 1:12 buggie Brothers.

Yep, it’s Raby’s 360. Awesome experience. Wasn’t ready for the super loud exhaust, but a fun drive it was!

Does the 360 suffer from bore scoring too? Kinda doubt it. :)

I made it back from Utah.

Although Utah is the promised land for my wife's people, I have yet to develop a fondness for the place. It's picturesque, and the ski resorts and national parks are sure nice, but...the cities.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

Nope, but it has a butt load of other service requirements. Jake said he just had the engine out service done on it. I asked, "how much does that cost?" He said $22,000. Ouch. More.. like BIG TIME OUCH. He's had the car in his collection for three years and pretty sure he will be taking it to auction soon. It's an amazing car. Totally different feel, but if you wanna play... you gotta pay!

Be thankful you have a 996, with all it's warts, it still a good bargain.
