| Which came first: The "Wraith" or the Wraith?
So I can't quite nail down the timeline here, just some broken links at axial and a few pictures I found online. Which inspored which? was the 1:1 built as a wraith replica or was the RC wraith built inspired by this 1:1 crawler? From what I can gather the 1:1 is owned and built by the owner of ckrc, back in 2006(?).. his name is Jake Hallenbeck I found this article too, but it's not clear which came first?? Axial Racing - Jake Hallenbeck’s Full-Size Axial Rock Crawler I also noticed the top on Hallenbeck's is a soft top.. which has inspired me to do the same on my wraith even as you read this..
