I'm located in Hamilton. Just found out about Chris's House and hes talking about a rock crawling set up for the spring.

Do you know how much it sucks to go crawling by your self

Tom17 · 12-02-2011, 04:51 AM

I'm going to find out after Christmas.

Actually, it will be with my son so maybe OK lol.

Hey guys, I'm a bit north of most of you, up in the Newmarket/Keswick area. As far as i know the closest "course" is GTA hobbies in missisauga, but for 20$ in gas there and back, plus 20$ to crawl, its a bit out of the question. My yard backs onto "Killer's Hill", there are HOURS of trails in there, from mud and big 4-wheeler ruts, to hillclimbs so steep its hard to stand on, , roots/rocks/dirt/stumps, everything! I have a rock/dirt garden about 20' L x 15' W x ~7' T that challenges my super as well as the scale trucks. I dont know anyone that crawls around here! We're very 420-friendly, and we drive everything from nitro's to brushless micros. If anyone wants to get together for a run, toss me an email at justinpryde@gmail.com.

SKOTTIE.B · 06-22-2012, 04:03 PM

Any trail/crawler clubs in Toronto?

trail slayer · 06-25-2012, 08:58 PM

looking for crawlers in the fergus/guelph area

Ramblinvan · 07-08-2012, 05:21 PM

We currently are a group of 8 in the Hanover area. Much more fun when you get many crawlers going at once.

Always looking for more people and more places to crawl.

buttonsHT · 07-08-2012, 10:26 PM

I'm in Burlington... just finishing up building a Wraith!

Shadow Fox · 07-22-2012, 07:29 PM

anyone near Lindsay? Looking for a few crawling buddies.

Hudson2816 · 08-28-2012, 02:00 PM

Newb from Fergus...

My name's Andrew, new to RC crawling, and I haven't even got a truck yet, will be getting a SCX10 Honcho, would be interested in trail running in the area, once I get my skills up! lol

MasonJar · 08-29-2012, 01:56 PM

Another Andrew - from Ottawa.

Fergus Andrew ^^^ - is your screen name a reference to the CPR locomotive?

Andrew

Hudson2816 · 08-30-2012, 02:45 AM

Hi Andrew from Ottawa

Why yes it is! Very astute!

Ya I'm a bit of a train guy too.. always been a CPR fan... I figure when I get my crawlin' skills up I can watch trains while crawling!

Are you into trains as well?

Hudson2816 · 09-05-2012, 05:19 PM

Hey guys... since I'm still new to this RC'ing thing.. where are some good servicewise hobby stores in the K-W Guelph, Cambridge area? I'm looking at getting an Axial SCX10 Honcho, just wondering if anyone had a good store to recommend as far as service and selection?

Thanks in advance

MasonJar · 09-05-2012, 08:17 PM

Yes, trains ( HO scale ) are the other hobby. Mostly 1920-1940 era. Lots of good train watching in S Ontario though. Not so much these days in Ottawa.

Cheers,

Andrew

4WDwannabe · 09-08-2012, 08:55 AM

Hey Hudson, if you have a rig a bunch of us are heading to Wainfleet, outside St Catherines, a bit of a drive, but looks to be worth it. Sept 16th. Head over to londonrc for more detailes, it's a King of the Hammers comp.
I'm in Dundas myself. Websters Falls near me is a wicked place to crawl, doable with 1.9 tires on my near stock Honcho. I got my kit online, one of the last kits available as they are only RTR now. Skycraft in Burlington has some crawlers but not a lot of parts, they can order what ever you need. Not sure about shops in Guelph or K-W.
Come out to Websters with us sometime before the snow flies.

Hudson2816 · 09-09-2012, 07:10 AM

Hey man... thanks for the offer, no rig yet, might just have to purchase online as well. I have read on here or another forum that Websters Falls is a great wheeling area, having never hiked there, I asked a guy at work that hikes there often, what it was like, and he was surprised that guys with R/C trucks could even crawl there! lol Thanks for the store suggestion! Seems like when I was into model trains, all the 'hobby' stores were into rc and the like with no trains, now it seems harder to find stores that have crawlers!

Just started my ground up build in Windsor.
