Oct. 29, 2011 South Bay GTG!!!!

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

Hello Locals in the South Bay,
It looks like that time of season again, to pull out the crawlers, and have some GTG's and weekend warrior crawling.

I am hosting a Get together on the 29, of October, at Linda Vista Park from 10am until Noon. It is on a saturday, so i hope people can make this one. The GTG's are meant to meet new people, and to get the sense of crawling back in our minds.

Any class of crawler/Scalers are welcome. Just bring a happy face, and have fun crawling!

Coordinate for Linda Vista:
37.307205,-122.060466

if you have any questions, or regards, please feel free to ask . If you are interested, leave a post, so I know how many people can go. Hope to see you there!

GTG at Monterey CA, awhile back, thanks to Crawford for the pic:

Thats awesome, i actually want to see that crawler run, for how it looks, looks like it will be pretty good on the rocks!

Hopefully we can get alot, like the one i had last year. Last year was really sucessful, about 15-20people showed up

I will be there, I'll bring both XR and the new look Wraith to fool around with. I got one of my on road buddies to buy a crawler as well...I'll ping on him and see if he'll join us. Maybe we could get a friendly comp course together and keep score.....might be fun.
I want to see Carlo's "Heavy Metal"...
And Kermit...

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

Awesome, Oh i totally forgot you got a Wraith, how is that rig?

hmm, that might be a good idea... oh well, when i held the one last year, it was sort of like a comp, but more so, follow the leader. Basically, follow the leader, and then it just scattered into groups of scalers and crawlers to see what was being run on others rigs. lol

I'm having fun with it, it's a real basher.....course I've modded it already
still want to do some stuff with it, brushless, MIP...was looking at RC4wd aluminum axels today.

A fun GTG is the best, follow the leader is ok too...it's all good

Sounds like fun.. Now i want one!

Have you seen those RC4wd XVD's? they offer like 5-10degrees more steering angle

Awesome.

[Postclanker]

Hope you can make it NorCal...I think you have an XR if I remember seeing that somewhere...

The Wraith is a trail runner more than a crawler for me, not so sure those XVD's help much with straight trail running....just more $$$

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

Oh i see. Are you going to run a crazy BL setup?

I don't know about crazy...have to beef up some drive train first...
Maybe a 13.5 with a Tekin RS for starts, with a 3 cell would be ballistic

Fast enough for me

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

That seems pretty crazy to me already! haha

good luck with that driveline though

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

no one else?

[Meatwad]

I'm in

I'll be sure to bring a couple more lipos this time out

[MRCCRAWLER1.9]

awesome. i wonder where all the other locals are at.....

[inkdaddy66]

Don't know if i'll be able to make it out there. I need outer rock rings for my beadlocks. Since I haven't been at work...I haven't been able to machine what I need. I found 3 old rock rings from the venom creeper I used to have,of course I can't find that last one so as of now im SOL. Unless some1 has a single ring from an old venom creeper. Lol.
I think with all the money I've poured into my xr. I've got about 20-30 mind total rocktime. Pathetic.

darn, Sadly, i dont have a venom creeper, even an extra beadlock ring. You could run your scaler, i think you mentioned you had one.. or use your scaler wheels and mount them on the xr and use them with pride!

oh well, once crawling season really kicks in, that time will get mutliplied.. like from jan 2011~about march 2011, i had a total of about 100hours+ on my crawler, according to my DX3R. there may be a few min inbetween due to changing batteries though..
