Axial should take note. This is what a Wraith/SCX-10 should be.

I kind of laughed when I thought of this, nothing new, just forgot I had these rotors left over from another project where they wouldn't work. When used with my Cac hubs, it gave the rotors that "hat" look, looked so good I put them on the truck. Goin a bit to far I admit but hey, I wasn't using them anyways.  |

I decided to re-assemble the back of the truck to see how those side panels would look. Needs color and some decals I think. Note my wheels are installed at max positive offset in the next series of photos, makes the truck 1/4 inch wider per side but the wheels look so much better. I will narrow it again when I run it.  |

Height of the truck is now coming down, I'm using the height of the bumper as reference because they both reference to the Scx frame the same way. The body is higher because of the interior/cage, but the chassis is now slightly lower. Before/after.   |

Rotors were made by 3racing, 12mm brake adapter. Got them quite awhile ago but integy has a similar product and the newer sets have Brake calipers and all have different color hubs available. Lookin for black hubs now cause the blue goes with nothing else on the truck and stand out. Part# for mine was 3RAC-AD12/BU. Think drifter, usually where they are used.

Body hinged up. Think I'm gonna have to start on the paint, hard to do electronics when I still have to mount another servo for the Dig. Axial should wake up and realize how many customers are waiting for the Dig kit for a popular truck like the Wraith. I mean Hot Racing can beat them to market on their own truck. Ridiculous!  |
