But for me $300 is just too much for something I'm just gonna fart around with. Not like when I was racing 1/8th nitro, I dumped THOUSANDS into that and I had several sponsors
I had the wraith and sold it to mike, a box stock wraith rtr is quick. It's built for speed. The only upgrade I would do to that is 32 pitch gearing instead of the stock 48pitch

They're still around and doing VERY well. They moved to a bigger place and now have an indoor carpet track.

I was racing for them and TQ Racing when I won this

It was a 6 race series, I should've finished 3rd but in the final race (which I was leading the A-Main) coming down the straight my rod snapped! I still have that connecting rod on my keychain lol

I miss the racing but the lack of tracks around here is what made me quit

They took over the auto parts store in the shopping center where the Walmart is. They have been in that shopping center for a while, they just moved a few doors down to a bigger place.
