Raced it, awesome machine...

On my third pack was only a couple sec short of my best with the C4..


Really impressed with the jumping & landings.

Expecting good times ahead for the Wild...

Still not a "must buy".. Extra front bulkhead would be more important.

Why would you need a bulkhead? Do you run into things that hard? My 9 year old racing mod in his hasn't broken a thing.

lol its stock racing. You need every single upgrade ever made. and then get out the dremel and cut everything in half. Thats how the stock guys are around here.

seriously though its a fairly heavy car. anything to shed weight would help. Al screws, ti turnbuckles, alum top shaft and one of the lighter slipper alternatives is where I would start.

I was looking at mine tonight and kinda want to have a buddy lathe some of the metal out of the one piece front axles.

To cut the weight down; Titanium screw kit, AE aluminum top shaft, Schelle slipper eliminator. remove battery strap, thumb screws & foam, cut out all braces behind servo, between battery post, and triangle sections next to tranny mount. AKA Typo tires. Oh yea and the dog bones were polished chrome to make it go faster.
