Radio aside... I've had a 3.3 Revo converted with an old-style "slipperential" setup, and I currently have a Savage with FLM extended (nitro) chassis and center diff. The Revo was a great truck but I got bored of it, and ended up trading it, although I never had any problems with it. My Savage had held up great and has proven to be more fun. It's also pushing FAR more power than my Revo could have handled (8s 3700mah Lipo) but then again it is a few pounds heavier than my Revo was.
In short, unless you're only racing MT class, I'd say the Savage is the better choice.

If the revo was noticeably more than the savage, I wouldn't be thinking about the radio, however it is only a $30 price difference. The closest thing I will be doing to racing is farting around on the local bmx track. What bored you about the revo, and why do you consider the savage more fun?
Thanks for all the replies guys, I don't usually do any homework before I buy an rc but this one won't exactly be cheap lol.
