#832 RTR Savage
25 Truck with Nitro GT-1 Truck Body
The 1/8th scale Savage 25 is designed to
be our most powerful truck ever! It takes the popular Savage
to the next level, giving monster truck enthusiasts more
power, higher speeds, and several extra exciting new option
parts as standard equipment!
The heart of the Savage 25 is the
powerful new Nitro Star S-25 that has 20% more displacement
than the previous model. It’s a .25 cubic inch (4.1cc) big
block engine that features a billet aluminum heatsink head for
extra cooling, dual bushing aluminum connecting rod, true ABC
chrome sleeve construction for durability, and a simplified
dual needle 7mm slide carburetor for easier tuning with a
composite body for better performance at higher temperatures.
The new S-25 is so powerful that we were able to gear the
truck for higher top speeds, yet still retain excellent punch
off the line. A high speed spur gear (49T) and larger
clutchbell (15T) are now standard equipment, and we also
include an 18 tooth clutchbell high speed on-road driving!
Customers will immediately notice that the Savage 25 has more
punch and higher top speed.
The powerful new Nitro Star S-25 engine
features:
- 20% larger displacement than the
21BB engine
- Billet purple anodized aluminum
heatsink head for improved cooling and strength
- Composite carburetor for improved
heat resistance
- Large 7mm carb opening for
increased airflow
- True ABC chrome sleeve construction
for durability and long life
- Dual needle adjustments for easier
tuning than the 21BB
- Purple anodized aluminum carb trim
- Stealth black case for improved
cooling
- Roto Start compatible

For added convenience we have added our
convenient Roto Start System, eliminating the pullstarter from
the engine! Owners will no longer have to worry about getting
blisters from trying to start their engines - a press of the
button and the engine roars to life! An added bonus of the
Roto Start is that primer button on the fuel tank isn’t
needed, so we took it out to help reduce the possibility of
air leaks. While we were revising the fuel tank we took the
opportunity to move the fuel pick-up to the rear of the tank
to help make the truck run more consistently through the
entire tank of fuel. A ceramic in-tank fuel filter is now
standard.
The buzz in the pits is that the Savage
is the toughest and best handling monster truck on the market,
but our R&D team set out to make it even better. To help
handle the increased power we’ve gone to a heavy duty
three-shoe clutch instead of the standard two-shoe design,
which helps launch the truck harder under all conditions.
Newly designed ribbed wheel hex hubs are now included to help
cope with the increased power, gripping the wheel better to
prevent stripped wheels. Stiffer shock springs are now
standard, giving a flatter trajectory over large jumps and
crisper performance when cornering at higher speeds.
The Savage 25 comes completely factory
assembled; everything is done for the customer - even the
tires are glued to the wheels. In less than 15 minutes
customers can be driving their Savage 25 trucks! Based on
requests from our RTR customers, we include a complete
Instruction Manual that covers the entire assembly/disassembly
process.
Most of the chassis parts are carried
over from the Savage 21, proven to be extremely durable and
supported by a huge assortment of option parts from HPI and
other manufacturers. The running changes to the Savage 25 were
designed to maintain the excellent parts support already on
the market, yet offer the customer a faster and more durable
truck.
To wrap up the package, the Savage 25 is competitively priced.
Even with the long list of added features – Roto Start,
bigger engine, extra gearing – the street price for the
truck will only be around $20 more than the Savage 21.
