STRC Izilla Wraith monster truck racing chassis
Following a first teaser ST Racing Concepts have now released more information on their Izilla monster truck racing chassis conversion for the Axial Wraith. The kit uses stock Axial Wraith components and bolts right on in less than 30 minutes, however, this chassis was designed for more than just bashing, it was made with racing performance in mind as well, thanks to a low centre of gravity design with the heavy electronics of battery, ESC and receiver box placed just over the centre transmission. The chassis places the bulk of the weight right in the middle and as low as possible. Unlike other chassis kits the Izilla places the stock Wraith battery tray side by side with the included aluminium electronics plate, with plenty of space for mounting aftermarket ESCs. The battery is also placed on the opposing side of the motor for a better left/right balance while adjustable forward or rear bias weight distribution is possible.
The simple and durable ladder frame design makes for a light weight and a high degree of user-friendliness and the chassis plates tucks in on the stock Wraith skid plate, so there is no risk of damaging the chassis’ underside. The chassis plates also feature numerous adjustments for the upper suspension links, allowing to adjust the truck’s handling. Finally the CNC machined front and rear chassis beams with integrated sway bar mount allow for the Wraith’s sway bar kit to be installed. The kit includes the ladder-frame chassis plates, chassis beams, end cross member beams as well as the electrics plate, chassis cross brace links, body posts and a hardware pack and it is available in a variety of colour combination to build an one-of-a-kind solid axle monster truck.
