Default Snow throwin' water roosting action!

Finally got a taste of winter today, with snow starting to fall about midnight last night. (We were in Florida during the freak October snow storm.) We woke up to about 6 inches of snow and me and my Bro-in-law had to go play in the woods. He's running a Tamiya Hi-Lift w/a four link, 27T motor, XL-5 ESC, 8.4 volt Nimh pack and RC4WD Mickey Thompson Baja's. I am running the Wraith w/VXL ESC, 20T motor, 7.4 Lipo and Pro-Line Chisels. What a blast we had this morning!!

Just getting started....



Nice scenery shot.



Follow the leader!



Snowy and wet....



Blasting through the snow in a four wheel drive Lipo sleigh....



Watch out for the roost!



The snow keeps it interesting for sure....



When in doubt, throttle out!!

Yea it was definately 6". The highlift was working hard to get through, a lot of forward and backward motions. We usually stick to the water trail, aside from some hidden rocks, its easier to through. My truck prefers to be operated as a submarine, so it is more then happy until it got out in the air and the drive shaft sliders started freezing up.
