|  New stuff at the Nationals One of the best things about holding an event like this is that we bring people from all across the country together to see eachothers new ideas. We all know Dirk will be bringing something new, revolutionary, and that will change the crawling world forever. Is anyone else bringing something new and different? Anyone else thinking outside the box? Even though I am not competing I am bringing a new crawler with me, I am trying several new ideas with the truck, one of those ideas is using a single 1/4 scale servo to steer both axles  My new truck will be called Dirkzilla it's almost finished now, no pics till Moab... |

Reminds me of the lyrics from an old country song "we don't mind original material as long as it's been done before". | |

| Mine will be the most innovative truck to point out every course! Not sure of the wisdom to bring a truck I've hardly driven to the comp. Oh well, it is what I like so it makes me happy. |

| Can't wait to see the write ups after the Nats!  Since I'm not able to attend, I guess the CMRCRC regulares will get to see my "Nationals" set up first. |

| I'll Be running the Final Beta/Prototype of the new J2TT (Jefferson 2) in the 2.2 class. I'll will also probably be bringing Kaetwo's personal K2-3L Scale rig if anyone cares to take a close look at it. Pretty Sweet! But do it before I break and axle or something on my rig and steal parts from his. |
