Large scale servos have been very popular on the supers...the 1/4th scale hitec-sorry don't remember the model #- are standard equipment on most of the top Colorado guys rigs last I payed attention. They hold up well to general bash duty on big rigs, too.

I used heatsink paste from Radio shack to bring the operating temps down on my HobbiCo knockoffs of that 5955 servo...you couldn't run pack after pack through them, but for a 5-6 minute run in a comp course it sure helped.

5990 hitec servos work well and they are 416oz @ 7 volts. They also have a thermal cutoff so you do not have to worry about burning them up.
