Axial Yeti 2.0 "Not so RTR" Upgrade Series EP3

The Axial Yeti 1/10th scale is one of the most versatile platforms on the market in Remote Control. It's a "do anything" type rig and the amount of upgrade/modification parts are endless. In the 2.0 series, I will be taking you on an adventure to see how we can improve the performance/durability even more and change up the looks of the Yeti. I call mine the "Not so RTR" because, it did start out as the RTR Yeti, but it is far from that these days!
Tires and Foams are the #1 upgrade anyone should do to gain performance on your rig. The Voodoo tires mated with the Crawler Innovations DW foams are a top pick from Pros to Joes!
