The Wraith will always have more aftermarket support, it's an Axial. I have only seen the R1, never driven it. I have heard you need to modify it to get better steering from it (R1). I own a Wraith and can tell you it is a good rig right out of the box. The only aftermarket part I have is the Vanquish steering link, the main link not the short link. There are some easy, free mods for the Wraith to lower it, check the Wraith section. Another thing I did with mine is change the gearing from 20/80 to 16/87. It helps with crawling and over-heating the stock motor. My vote is for the Wraith... |

you said you want a KOH, then go for the wraith. the R1 is more of a crawler
