Big enough that Bad1 didn't use him in his Wraith!

His head is above the seat... the seat's look tiny with him in them.

That worked. Still may do up a couple of thicker lexan plates for servo anyways.

He actually looks good in the Wraith, just too big for Melons.
Who is driving your Wraith?

I might have to steal Trey's Danger Girl idea... she is buxom!

I knew should have kept my McKenzie Bros.

Standard axle hubs with 3.8" tire/wheel combo has it at 17.5" wide.



With some Integy 17mm axle hubs that Rick shoehorned the 24mm Baja hexes onto! Now its 19" wide with the Baja tire/wheels.... need to lengthen the chassis. Oh Rick, do you/can you cut carbon fiber?

Do it! I don't care.

I'm kinda thinking about doing something nutso with the wraith anyway...to be different. You guys may have see that ultimate RC youtube video where Jang put the quasi-hummer short course body on his wraith. I think it looks friggin sweet. I'll loose a ton of scale points with it though. The wraith is the least favorite of my rigs as far as looks go but it's the most fun for me to drive. That body is big enough that the fenders cover the tires too. It would be a cheap mod and I could always reverse it if I wanted to. Ah, who knows?

Thanks for the reminder.

Why would you edit your post just to add in an insult?
Actually, you don't need to answer that... I already know why.

EDIT: JackHole.
WOW dude chill. Bustin ball is what I do. Pointing out your Cheater tires is call razing.

I do not need to feel wanted in NIRC. I left because it was to much work. Also complaints of the Sorrca rules.

Such a shame, I really had good intentions when I started NIRC. Along with so cool plans.

Oh well I tried.

that is pretty cool.

You might still be able to build out an interior and you can still do all the bolt on stuff.

There are a lot of bodies that fit the Wraith axles... I think my bigger melons body looked kinda cool sitting over top of Hera... not scale but cool.
