    holy crap. Plain black looks kinda ugly. But then when you added the stickers it was a whole different story. Keep it up. I wanna see more of this thing in the action

    awesome build, dude!

    I noticed a Griffin sticker on the side there - is that the same griffin that makes the phone grips for life-sized cars, by any chance?

    thanks for the coments guys, it really keeps me going further with this project ;-) BrotherBloat the sticker says griffin radiators it comes with the wraith decals sheet ...i dont know if it is the same....did some filming yesterday, not much but its a video...lol...

    wraith setup: 20T motor, 87t spur,14t pinion, HPI rock grabbers. i think this is it for what i want ;-) lots of torque and good wheel speed, not as much as stock but still enought to give that starting push that some times is needed ;-) ck setup: brushless 21.5T motor, 93t spur, 25t pinion, HPI reduction unit, Axial ripsaws. toooo slooowww...lol....awsome where grip is available...lol...when it doesnt exists like in this case (loose dirt and very step) it takes a loooonnnng time to get there, but still lots of fun ;-) . i´m driving the HPI and my kid the wraith, he still needs to learn a few things about driving...lol...he will get there.....

    another test to the wraith with the same setup ;-) i guess i´ll leave this setup in it, it´s perfect, it´has lots of torque and still keeps the wheels spinning fast enought to do a little foff

    really got to get me a decent camera...lol...

    Aw man! The addition of the wire mesh and perforated metal looks very cool! Gives it a really off-road taste to it in my opinion.

    Your Wraith is coming along really well, Paulo, good work! Love it!

    i´ve been looking to find the perfect driver for my wraith, someone with experience, that does a little more than just throw some punches...lol....and yesterday he came to me....i pictured a movie in my head the minute i saw him.....




    i think this is the kind of rig John Connor would drive in his time..... ;-)

    why finish? You still can add tail pipes and a hood blower, not to mention that there could be added a laptop in the center console, and why not add a fire ex. on one of the pole's up front or in the back, you also could make leg lift's for it ( nerf bars ), and they also have a different hood out there on ebay now, it gives you a hood scoop. Well I look at mine and think I'm done with mine but I see all kinds of things I can do to it all the time thats the fun of having these truck's and car's.

    Nice work Paulo....really like the detail work and working steering...I hadn't even thought of that, but very cool.

    There's always something to do with these things...time to add a winch that opens and closes the hood or something cool.
