I think the new kits are great. I think most of the newbs are annoying, but that's part of it. I'd rather deal with newbs and have all these awesome new things come out than still be stuck in 2005 where we were all building basically the same TLT over and over and over....

Original poster: Your an idiot. Period. You are ignorant and a moron. The Ax-10 was what the sport needed, I would rather have 10,000 of noobs in the sport than 5,000 people like you.

There will always be lazy noobs no matter what is the new truck, there will always be the 13 yr olds coming in with a present from grandpa they know nothing about. They are part of the hobby and noobs turn veterans after a year or two. The noobs may on day be making the trucks and parts that you buy becuase they started the hobby at an early age. So get over it and sit and spin on this you waste of a life |

I don't know about anybody else?.(maybe it's my pissed off mood) But I feel a bit insulted, especially by this part. "I'm going to run it, then put it away for weeks at a time so I can handle the other aspects of a grown man's life (family, job, life in general)." Doesn't Pete think any of us have "aspects of a grown man's life" to deal with? What a douche bag If we're so "elitist" here's a place for you to hang out. www.clodtalk.com | |

You are 100% correct Josh! This sport has exploded over the last couple of years. HPI and Axial have had a huge part in that. Former newb, Randy | |

I don't mean to be an ass... okay, I do but.... For being to how many, 2-3 comps in the last couple years and not being very active on the ORCRC(local) board you sure do talk a lot of bull shit. I know you are only 16 years old and think you know everything but kid, STFU. You just made Oregon look stupid. ORCRC has openly welcomed the AX-10 into it's comps by starting a spec AX-10 class last year to help TEACH n00bs how to drive, setup and understand their new crawler. Plus it allows the oldtimers to have FUN. It is a killer machine. | |

all i know is 4 years ago when i started crawlin and built a juggernaut 2 from only axles and a tranny i had only one other person to go crawl with now it seems like there are at least 20-30 people in the area that all have nice crawlers, there good people, and i wouldnt mind thrown back a couple beers and havin a good time with em. so let those "newbs" come in i dont mind, there all usually decent people in real life |

Up until last year, Virginia couldn't get any amount of people together for a decent crawl. The crawlers were just too few and far between. This year, we have 12+ at all of our comps (which we run about once a month and are always getting bigger), we have our own [active] website, and we have a great time getting together for friendly competition. I think the AX-10 has been a major factor in our club getting bigger and better all the time. | |
