Neal of Freqeskinz knew I was pressed for time with crawlapalooza this week. He made and installed new panels with the skinz;

I am thrilled with the new design and can't wait to see it in person at crawlapalooza. Thank you Neal for your work on this project. I'm excited to see Top Shelf & the 8x8 together.

Oh my... That will be the baddest tow rig/rig combo to date!

Also, I LOVE the new CI logo.

Wrap looks awesome on the rig. Need to see the rig on "the rig".

Thank you sir

CI has a new web site under construction. It will have several new products. One of those will be high quality 4x6 Crawler Innovations decal sheets.

Thank you for the kind words guys. My hope is that Crawler Innovations builds will inspire others to continue to create. All of the vehicles in the CI garage were made possible by vendors, builders & information found only here on RCC. I hope that those involved with making these projects possible feel the love. You know who you are and thank you.

I went to Murrell Park to test, tune and film. Top Shelf was involved and I captured a few pictures:

East Texas Radio Control Crawlers (ETXRCC) held a G6 on a club members land in Buffalo, Texas in October of 2015. The location was great with varying kinds of terrain. Some of the members weren't interested in the G6, so we made a simple track for some Ultra4 off-road RC practice.

This video is a compilation of footage from that day and it covers a number of different RC vehicles. Most of them have build threads on the RCCrawler forum and there are links below:

Top Shelf was disassembled in December of 2015. I bead blasted the chassis to bare metal and mailed it back to Casey for repairs and upgrades. After two years of hard abuse it had a few loose or broken joints. I also wanted the rear of the chassis shortened by 3/8" of inch to avoid it dragging on steep climbs or descents. Some scale items are going to be added in this time as well.

Here are some pics in bare metal:
