| New Crawler here in AL
Hey guys. Just wanted to stop in and say hey. I just purchased my first crawler. I am new to the crawler world but not the RC world. I have built many truck kits and car kits over the past years. I picked up an Axial Honcho this past Friday. It is amazing what these crawlers can do. I went to a friends house in Biloxi this past weekend and we were crawling all weekend. I can definitely see the pocket getting smaller and smaller. This is such a fun hobby. I look forward to seeing and meeting some of you guys on here. Jamie |

I have heard of moss rock. I would like to make it out there this weekend. I am itching to go there. I've heard that it is real nice out there. If anyone is going there this weekend I may see you.

I live in the McCalla/Bessemer area. I think I will be picking up my full link conversion kit tomorrow. I hope to get out to moss rock sometime Sunday. I will check with some people at the local hobby shop and see what time they are heading out there.

Guess you were sitting to long... the truck wanted to be crawling.. THat was very strange through. Just crapped out for no reason. Did you get a chance to order those solar servos? I believe that is what you were thinking of trying right?

Nice!! I have some wheels on the way now. I ordered some motorworx racing 8 spoke beadlocks. That will add some weight to the front and I will also stick some weights in the wheels as well. Should help out a good bit.

I have got to get the guys I crawl with to hurry up and get their stuff going so maybe a bunch of us can meet up at Moss Rock. I just got he lockers for my Wraith in today finally so it is just about back up and running and I am thinking about changeing bodies on my SCX10 the Hummer I have on it is just really top heavy and it doesn't like to climb very good cause of it.
