Of all the Wraiths I've owned....this is by far my favorite build.
This Wraith is meant to be driven fast and hard on the trail.
I really don't care about crawling it, I have my comp trucks for that.

I'm naming her Low & Dirty. I wanted this Wraith to be as low as possible while maintaining just a little flex.
After buying RTR's when they came out, and a kit...this one was put together from left over parts and the for sale section.
I found a new chassis cage and started adding parts over the months.
It seems like it took me 4 months to get this one together....the longest build EVER! :roll:
The battery was left in the rear, stock tray.
I find it keeps the truck a little more planted for those quick maneuvers. "thumbsup"
The rest of the truck (other than the replaced parts), are stock!

She finally had her maiden run a few weeks ago at Little Rock City. What a blast! All the guys wanted to drive it. :twisted:
