I don't know about all the rest of crawling, but here in the Phoenix area, we were all sitting around talking one night and someone said, "You know those gay ass tight ropes and bridges? We ought to start using those just to piss off that gasser55t guy!" Everyone agreed and here we are!

Come up north and your sure to have to crawl a bridge or two.

Maybe even a cable crossing or axle slide.

Not sure where your coming from with this but I find it to be a lot of fun when there is a bridge or two on a scale course or even a cable crossing in a comp. It adds to the excitement and challenge!

bridges are fun and cable crossings rock..makes you work for the crossing..

last time I checked this is not solely based on 1:1..its based on the creativeness and passion of our Hobby!!

i kinda felt like that at first . But now my backyard coarse is kinda getting a bit boring. So i have been seruiosly thinking about building a cable bridge or something. You can't base everything on 1.1. These RC rigs are capable of doing some extrodinary things and there is no risk of injury like with 1.1. So the envalope gets pushed further and further otherwise it can get boring.. I see you live in Gilbert. You should stop by and crawl with us on our little backyard coarse. Not as nice as Marc's coasre but still fun
