The only "rock crawling" that could take place there would have to happen in the far right portion of the first pic.....................and there isn't a single other pic of that area

I know it is fun to "water proof" a rig, but isn't just bad to do to the chassis? I guess I am just shocked cause I would never do that. Just curious?!?!

Looks like lots of fun. Take it to scale4x4rc.org if you want to avoid the comments about not being much crawling.

i probably have to do alot better job on the bodies before i can post at scale4x4rc.org, all the rig there look so good. We just put whatever on for now but soon new one will be post.

For the waterproof comments, yes i think i did a good job waterproofing all electronic stuff, except the LRP esc on one rig but still the other rig has dynamite esc. This was not the only time that we took AX10 to that level of water, its almost every weekend. It fun but yea it might not be so much crawling but our set up did pretty good on the rocks too.
