help beat berg enroute

[rockpayne]

Improving your scorpion, and practice, practice, practice, and not just at the same spot on the same lines, change it up and look for harder stuff to climb and always set up gates when you practice. You can fun crawl all you want but till you put those gates there and a stop watch, it is just fun crawlin. So good luck and happy crawlin and do not give up

I live at the local level and finishing well can be done on a regular basis.
The frequency rate is much lower for shafties than it is for MOA's beating shafties, that just goes with the territory.
I've been improving my shafty comp rig for over five years and I actually have no intension for getting a MOA right now.
Here's my reasoning for the club level I have a great truck and it's inexpensive to operate.
I put a few hundred dollars a year in my equipment and upgrades, then drive the crap out of it. Usually beating a few MOAs at every comp in the process.
If your planning on competing at a National level then it gets much more difficult.
First of all you need tons of driver experience this is a hobby/sport were you never can never get enough wheel time.
All the top competitors are also running the latest and best equipment available with years of experience behind it.

If your goal is heading to the next Nats you'll need all the help you can get so get ready to spend lots of treasure and thats no guarantee you'll finish any where near the podium.

If your a club guy enjoy the hobby do your best make friends and give your ego a rest, life is good and very affordable. This is were most of us live.

If your focused on winning a National event just sell your shafty right now and work on those driving skills and equipment because you will need the whole package and then some.

Well said Norm
