The Wraith isn't really a crawler...BUT I've seen them made into some BAD ASS "scale" crawlers (perfect for class 3 scale comps). But, they're a no go for 2.2 because of USRCCA rules, but what the hell, run it in the super class (you'll get owned, but it'll be fun) The Losi NC can be made comp worthy with a few hop ups...but if you want to comp worm gears, spend a few more bucks and get the Losi Comp Crawler. That being said, read all you can about worm gears before jummping in. I ran a Comp Crawler for a few years and didn't have any problems what so ever with the axles...I even converted the axles to MOA with the Eritex kit, still, not a single problem out of 'em. HOWEVER, my experience is unusual, and that's an understatement, trust me. Again, read up on them before buying one. Last edited by crawl-o-matic; 11-12-2011 at 05:57 PM. |

I recommend looking in the Regional section for clubs and get-togethers in your area. You'll enjoy your rig a lot more if there are people in your area to run it with.
