great looking wraith! How does the VP axle hold up? Just wondering if they are worth spending $95 on them

VP just announced they are working with KMC on some replica wheels. Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe they will make a licensed version of them. Those would be even sweeter than these!

lol, It's going to be a riveting stock wraith build....

Not sure anyone would be interested in seeing it progress.

It's lots of fun digging through the screw bin with the calipers trying to find all the bolts to put it back together. lol I think I ordered 30 dollars in screws this weekend to put the chassis together.

I'm, gonna put the EVRC skin on it with stock electronics and let my daughter drive it around. It will probably sit and be pretty as the "Shop Wraith"

Decided to do the hood mod today. First thing I did was use some lexan to extend the electronics tray.

Had to take a break after that to drive the other wraith with my daughter

Found these brackets on an EXO Terra parts tree that were perfect to use as hinges!

Bent the lexan into an L shape to help cradle my 3S pack.

With the battery tucked up under the hood I went ahead and panted up my Dinky Drop box.
