I bought a set of vp c-hubs and a diff cover the other day. Also got a VP dig unit in a trade. thinking of swapping out the wraith trans for an ax10 trans with the dig unit on it.

| Re: my new wraith (progression) SMOKED MY HOLMES MOTOR TODAY... Off to John to have it rebuilt I guess. Don't get me wrong, I love these motors and will run no other brushed motor in any of my crawlers EVER again. I got the VP c-hubs and diff cover installed. Waiting on my RRP gear so I can finish putting my VP dig and trans together. |

I'm going to be receiving a HH 20t Crawlmaster Pro in a couple days. How much faster then the 27t is it? I'm sure I'll be just as happy with this motor as all of my other HH motors.

Time for the wraith to get the servo she deserves. I am a huge fan of the 7950, but the $$ are stretched pretty thin right now. How is the 7954 holding up for you guys?

Well I bit the bullet and took a chance on the 7954 at $79.95. Should be a good servo for my wraith, we'll see tomorrow when it gets here. Maybe down the road I'll get a 7950 and use the 7954 for rear steer. Also got the 20T HH CrawlMaster Pro installed, but haven't gotten to use it yet.

Well I just put my front axle back together and guess what. My VP tie rod is bent to almost straight on one side. First VP product ever I can say didn't hold up for me. I want to bend it back, but I'm afraid I'll break it.

Installed the 20T Crawl Master Pro and High Tec 7954 today and put them to the test. I must say I like the crawl ability and the smoothness of this motor way more than the 27T Torque Master. As for the servo, I think every one knows by now that I am a huge fan of the 7950 and swear by it. This 7954 is a great servo for the money. Very strong and it blows away any comparable Savox or any other servo I've ever used. If you want a great servo and can't afford the 7950, this 7954 the next best thing. Great bang for the buck...

Finally got to mount my winch. It's a pretty nice unit and pulls the wraith around fairly easily. Now I just need to pick up a front bumper from Bgr so I can mount the winch better. |

Going to be getting a set of Iroks for the Wraith this week hopefully. Really looking forward to seeing how they do.

Well the USPS lost the Iroks so I'm sticking with the cut Baja Claws. Not much new on the wraith. Dumping money at my 1:1 s10 again. Wish my post office didn't have their heads up their asses... Was really looking forward to the Iroks.

After 3 months I finally got around to mounting my Claws on the RC4WD wheels. They good on these wheels. They aren't all ballooned out like they were on the wide Axial wheels. |

Just ordered a set of Pitbull Rockbeast 2's. I should get them on Wednesday and mounted by Friday and get to test them out. Can't wait for them to get here.

Well good ol USPS F'ed up yet again. My tires got shipped out on Monday. They go to the sorting facility that night and never left. I was supposed to have them yesterday, but they're still in Texas. I'm starting to really dislike USPS. This is the 4th package in 6 months they've messed up with. 3 of which I never received, but I hope I actually get this one or I'm out $85...

Huge fan of these Pitbull Rockbeast 2's. They flat out worked in everything I put them through. Don't think I'll run anything other than Iroks or Pitbulls from now on. I still thinkb the Iroks are a great tire, but in my case the Pits put them to shame in every condition.
