Teambosing's DmG "Bad Saint" build

[TeamBosing]

After hours of reading in this forum, i finally decided to purchase a Wraith rtr. This forum is awesome and will help me concur my rc addiction. It's always fun to look at your bada$$ rides.

My Wraith came the other day and i already started changing things out...

Next, i purchased a 16t pinion and 84t spur gear...


Installation was a breeze...


I also flipped my lower shock mounts and my rear upper shock mount to lower it a little bit. Re-arranged the electronics and did the battery forward mod. Currently I am using a 5000mah lipo and gets me a good amount of run time. The truck felt a lot slower after changing the pinion and spur gear.

Next on my list are some VP knuckles, c-hubs and lock outs. Trying to keep within a $150-200/month budget. So it will take a good amount of time to finish this project. I honestly don't know exactly what i'm going to do with it yet. Looking at all the fine builds here makes me go bananas.. haha

150-200 is a huge budget and will get you close to bullet proof this month.

I'll be watching this

Thanks evan03. More stuff came in the mail today. My son picked the driver. Also going to do the hood mod. I'm also going to change all my plugs to deans and put some plug savers on those small lipo JST plugs (very convenient if you have big sweaty fingers).




Also waterproofed the ESC and servo. Waiting for more stuff to come. I also figured out that I live a couple of miles away from BGR fabrication... talked to the owner and he invited me to come to his shop. Life is gooood...

Got bored and painted my seats..

Well it's a 2011 custom build limited race gun made by SVI Infinity. It's chambered in .40s&w. I shoot guns as my main hobby. I'm a member of USPSA (UNITED STATES PRACTICAL SHOOTING ASSOCIATION) and IDPA (INTERNATIONAL DEFENSIVE PISTOL ASSOCIATION).








Some of my other toys...

Love em

[DaJester]

Really nice heaters!

Gotta agree with you, the forum is great, the support on here seems awesome and that helped in making my Wraith and SCX10 purchases an easy decision. Bring on the mods!!!

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

Welcome to Rcc!

Nice pistola's you got there...sexy!

[TeamBosing]

Went to the shooting range today to shoot a match and decided to bring the wraith along. Played with it a little bit till it was our time to shoot...




USPSA! Gotta represent!


I need to move the steering wheel closer to the driver...

Plasti-dip is holding up ok?

The plasti dip is holding up fine. My daughter rolled the wraith a couple of times while driving on asphalt. The scratches makes the wraith look a lot better.

I agree with you regarding the wheels and tires. They will go.. eventually. My priorities right now is to bullet proof the wraith first. I may do the tires and wheels later on. Any suggestions on a good tire and wheel combo? I don't do hardcore crawling. Some trail and bashing is what i do.

More pics...

With my 1911's. One in .40 and the other one is .45.


Sitting on a pile of brass...

[TeamBosing]

Went out with my boy to the beach to bash a little bit. Found some mud and rocks....




Came home and some stuff showed up infront of my door steps....

Vanquish knuckles, chubs, lock outs


CC BEC and Universals


Next on the list are some MIP shafts and titanium links

This is unlimited options!!!
Vanquish
Motorworx
Gearhead
Mayhem
----------------
Swampers
Pit Bull 2's
Axial BFG's or Ripsaws
Rc4wd Baja claws,crushers,iroks

[doublej]

Pitbulls or Ripsaws for performance is my 2cents.
But this is a scaler - Get what you think looks sexy and fits your budget.

[TeamBosing]

Thanks for your advice. I'm leaning towards the Gear Head CAC Ez Loc and Pitbull II tires. Got more stuff in the mail today..



Got some stuff on order...



Going to order also a MMP ESC and MIP shafts.

[evan03]

What's the budget.

It appears to be getting racey.


Good looking rig
