$1090 Wraith suspension mod!>?!>!

[Dostradamas]

This seems very bunk to me. I searched for this sebsrc on here & found nothing. I assume if this was any good & worth it I would see it somewhere.

Seb's RC Shop Ltd.

Anyone seen or driven one modded this way?

Only $370 for the upgraded suspension,..they are adding in labor in their price. You would drop $720 from the cost doing it yourself.

Looks like a cool cantelever setup. I've seen other vids of this on Youtube.

Ummm NO!!! Why ruin a perfectly good car???

 

[boosted4lyf]

Pfffffft 10-12 hrs to install:roll: I've rebuilt entire rigs 5hrs before a comp. fawkin rookies.

Or waste perfectly good money! I'd rather wipe my ass all year with $1 bills than put it towards this.

My wraith was far from "perfectly good" out of the box.
After many mods & tests now I would consider it perfectly good but the stock COG & steering SUX.
After reading how this setup was going to destroy all competition a year ago I am wondering if anyone actually has some hands on with this setup.

I been at this guy on this forum and on youtube to get proper vid or at least to get vid of it on proper terrain.. still no answer. A too soft cantilever suspension with too much travel just makes for a floppy, hot mess.

I tell you what big guy, throw down the coin for this super cool setup and see how you do in a G6 or Ultra4 event even to a tuned stock set up... But go ahead and drive your erector set, hope you enjoy....

[theloudone]

yeah screw that. i'd buy some full vanquish wraith axles

 

[throttlejock27]

I could build an entire wraith for that price

You somehow think I am proposing this is a good design, I am not. I think its a ridiculous joke but I like to gather information & think before I form an opinion..... you might try that concept
Don't call me "guy" buddy

I have started a Wraith build from scratch. No kit. I figure if I am going to change it out might as well just buy it. I am also putting the Chris S/Sebs rc shop suspension on mine but with a couple of twist.

 

[War Pig]

That's just stupid! Let's take a rig that's too tall and floppy to begin with and raise the suspension and center of gravity....then charge $1000 for it :shock:. $60 an hour for labor...really? Seriously, the dumbest thing I've seen in a long time.

 

[sickness]

I've built losi and associated trucks over the years in less than an hour ready to race. Sounds like somebody is trying to make a quick buck off people with more money than brains and noobs with no clue.

 

[Stick King]

I can't believe I wasted my time clicking the link to their site. $370 in parts, $720 in labor and 12+ hours to make a wraith into that?I'm pretty close to speechless.

 

[JasonInAugusta]

12-13 hours to put rear suspension on a Wraith? :lol:

It takes 6-8 hours to convert a Wraith to IFS and do all the cage mods to graft the Exo rear cage into the Wraith cage.

Looking at the .gifs, it's horrible.

 

[xgerstandtx]

Yup, 12 hours to assemble rear suspension. :roll:

 

[isyeskeert]

Builder's pride is all that it is worth..... It is plainly over thought and way too gimmicky. I feel guilty for even commenting!

 

[THX_138]

Maybe it was a typo and it was supposed to read 1.2 hours @ $600.00 per hour:roll:

After reading how this setup was going to destroy all competition a year ago

was. key word there. this is old news, and it has already been determined that it is a waste of money and WAY too much suspension travel.:roll:
