Southern fun run the weekend of sept 11 -SIGN UP-

[aubie]

We are planning a southern fun run for the second weekend of September at Bucks Pocket state park in northeast Alabama. We have found roughly 1/4 mile of dry creek bed that is awsome for crawling.
Being a state park there are full camping facilities for those who would wish to camp out for the weekend. Full hookup is $16 per night. The only drawback is that the closest motel is roughly 20 miles from the park.
Those interested can post here or email me at robinsonracing@bellsouth.net


Here are a few pics of this weekends fun. We will post new pics each weekend.

Aubie,

I fixed your image link so the pic actually shows.

Nice location.

[aubie]

Thanks John, I tried for about an hour or so last night to get them to pull up and finally had to call it quits. Please PM me and tell me how you did it .

[aubie]

It was an awsome weekend. There was a little damage at the end of the day Sunday. One twisted front driveshaft and one trashed front steering servo.

[4XADICT]

Where in NE AL is it, or how far from say Fort Payne or Chattanooga ?

[aubie]

Bucks Pocket state park is in the little town of Groveoak Al which is 25 miles from Fortpayne.

[Fishmaxx]

I would come, but I am going to the crawl at Dirks that weekend!

Maybe next time

[aubie]

We could bump it a weekend if that would help get a few more people down here.

[RXcrawler]

I'll be there as long as I don't have to work. I used to drive my 1:1 jeep out there (not in the creek but on the trail beside it). LOTS OF ROCKS!!!

Where are you from?

[4XADICT]

I`ll have to see if I can make it when the time gets a little closer , it`s not realy that far 5 1/2 hrs or less.

[Destroyer]

3 1/2 hours for me-I might come. I'll let you know once it gets closer to that weekend. I should have the tuber done by then, so I'd like to!

[aubie]

RXCrawler I am in albertville. Its about 25 miles for me to Bucks Pocket.

[RXcrawler]

aubie I'm originally from Douglas/Boaz.
Now I live in Alabaster (20 miles south of Birmingham)

[aubie]

RX we are going back this weekend if you would be interested in making the drive up.

[aubie]

We are going to keep it the weekend of the 11th. We have the offical ok from the park and everything is a GO :D So who all is interested?

[RXcrawler]

I will be there!!!!
along with 2 of my friends from Boaz (they have e-maxx crawlers)

My e-mail is jmfloyd@earthlink.net

let me know when and where you want to meet

[aubie]

We have it set for the 11th and the 12th for anyone who would wants to stay the weekend. The time is 10:00 for both days. Anyone interested can PM me for more info.


Destroyer Bring the tuber!!!!!!


If all goes as planned there should be 7 to 10 of us there. Should be a fun weekend.

[4XADICT]

I`m going to try and make Atlanta this comeing weekend and AL the next, Man this crawling thing is start too cost some gas $$, and I only get about 12mpg :cry: , gotta spend it on something I guess.

[Destroyer]

I don't think I'm going to be able to make it. The tuber failed miserably last weekend, so it's back to the drawing board for me. :x

[CSR]

300 miles... that's not bad. I had too much going on to make it to GA Sunday, but I might be able to make it to this one. My son's first soccer game is coming up, not sure which day. I'll try to be there if we don't have a game this Saturday.:)

[aubie]

Destroyer Patch it up and send it back in. You are more than welcome to run one of ours if you still want to make the trip. From what I hear there will be more than enough trucks to go around.


CSR We are running saturday and sunday. There are some that are staying the weekend.

RX PM me and I will get you the info you asked for.



If you have any questions about directions and such PM me and I will send you contact info.

[4XADICT]

Don`t know if I`ll be able to get Overkill repaired in time to make it or not. Broke another upper link mount off the rear axle in GA. I gotta build something stronger than the XTM plastic and not much time during the week.

[aubie]

Looks like there are 7 of us so far from this and surrounding bama areas that will be there. Hopefully Destroyer, 4xaddict and CSR will be able to make it also.

[aubie]

OK Guys sound off. Who is planning on being here.

Destroyer

[CSR]

My son has a soccer game tomorrow. I don't want to hurt his feelings. But now that I think about it, his mom missed a game and he didn't seem to care, actually I don't even think he noticed that she wasn't there. Let me ask the 4 year old for permission, if he doesn't care then I'll be there. :)

[CSR]

I will be there!!!!

My e-mail is jmfloyd@earthlink.net

let me know when and where you want to meet

Is this Joey Floyd? The email looks familiar, Joey was going to school to be a pharmacist ("RX"crawler)?

[Destroyer]

I may be able to make out on sunday. I'm trying to put my old truck back together, so it's a possibility. Thanks for the offer aubie, but I would feel bad if I broke someone else's truck. :wink:

Destroyer

[RXcrawler]

Yeah RXcrawler is Joey Floyd.

I finally finished pharmacy school. I had to get into this crawling thing while I was in school because I never had the time to work on my 1:1 truck.

I read that you have a toyota, have we ridden together?
Do you know Hal Hall?

E-mail me at jmfloyd@earthlink.net

[RXcrawler]

I forgot to say that the two people I was going to bring won't be able to come.

[CSR]

Yeah RXcrawler is Joey Floyd.

Do you know Hal Hall?

E-mail me at jmfloyd@earthlink.net

Do I know Hal? He's my daddy! I was there with cameras rolling when he flopped on Guardrail. Man, it's a small world! This is Chris Robbins, had a silver Samurai, rode with you at Monteagle and Tellico several times. Hell, I was just looking thru old pictures and found one of you riding with me in my Suzuki at Monteagle. :) I sold the Samurai and built a solid axle EFI Toyota. I got into R/C crawling a few months ago, thought my son would like it. He hasn't taken much interest in it, I'm hooked! I haven't done anything to my 1:1 truck since I bought the TXT-1. :oops:

I'm definitely coming tomorrow, I'll see y'all then. :D

[RXcrawler]

I can't believe you sold the zuki, we all talk about how amazing that zuk was, it went everywhere with those 32 SX's

I have the tape of Hal rolling in my vcr right now!!! Talk about picking a bad spot to roll!

It's amazing how small this world is. It's kind of sad my 1:1 truck hasn't been on my #1 priority list since I have got hooked on this RC crawling stuff. Its alot cheaper to fix a broken RC.

I have a complete Toyota drivetrain Fuel injected motor on all waiting to be put in my zuk if I would quit playing with my little trucks

See ya Saturday.

[4XADICT]

You guys have fun and take lots of pics. I`m stuk here as Overkill is still spread all over the work bench :( .
