    Where is the best place to buy one? Last time I bought any real rc stuff was from tower hobbies a long time ago. Is the wraith the only contender?

      The wraith is not the only contender, there are plenty of other companies that make great rock crawling rigs. Axial, I think, is a pretty cool company, they are a great sponsor, and have a big presence at King of the Hammers, so they get my money.

      And the wraith looks fucking sweet.

      How close are you to Branford hobby?

        Probably a little over an hour. I looked into buying one maybe a year ago but never pulled the trigger. Looks like 400 for a ready to run and about 300 for a kit? The ready to runs pretty good out of the box or need immediate upgrades?

          I just bought the RTR and wheeled it. Out of the box upgrade would be a steering servo arm, the rest you can upgrade as it breaks.

          Dickerman has flogged the shit out of his and broke 2 of the wheels, Matt upgraded a bit too after some shit broke, Will has aluminum Cs and knuckles, I went through 2 plastic steering arms before I got an aluminum ones and then I decided to just dump money into it and make everything I could aluminum.

                              i wish i new but my tax return is going to this stupid little toy instead of my real jeep which probably isnt the best choice but i just want this thing to work
                              maybe ill just carry a fire extinguisher around with me i have two opitons
                              1. rebuild this motor and get a new esc
                              2. get a new esc and a sensor ed brush less motor looking at the mamba max pro and a roc 412 3100kv

                              from what i can gather from the internet that is a awesome combo
