I've already witness the RG in buggies against better motors many times before. I'm not saying your motor sucks, I like it (and would buy one, for the right conditions), it just doesn't have the upper RPM of better motors. The numbers are printed and I've seen it from first hand experience. As far as Savages lifting their front wheels it all about suspension setup, tires and throttle control. I've seen savages perform well in turns and some that don't.

Overall the RG would be a better motor than any stock HPI .21 or .25 in my books just not as good as a few others in the same price range. (for a savage)
