All of which ended in a complete disaster and left me feeling beaten. Then I saw my buddy Joe’s Traxxas Trx4 Bronco and the rust job he did using a 3-step rusting kit. I [...]

We had so many great vehicles suggested for both the bash side and the scale side, we decided to go with a full 16 for each. We started with the bash bracket, and now it’s time for round 1 [...]
Axial Racing and Horizon Hobby was kind enough to hook us up with the new Axial Wraith 1.9″ RTR, and in person it’s a real stunner. Those smaller tires give it a much more scale look, at least for what’s hot right now, and the black version looks great. Opening up that hood to reveal the V8 molded receiver case [...]
