Default Drag Racing RC Monster trucks.

I have thought about it for a long time. I know it is not crawling, But our trucks are designed after what I feel looks like a Monster Truck. What if some one was to build a track similar to what I see on TV ( the oval or stright line racing) and we did some small mods to our trucks and have some fun rockin and rolling against the clock?

Thinking further I think I would just take my MGT and start with that and Badger could run his REVO.


And Jason can just chase badgers wife with the wife.:-)

This sounds like a lot of fun!

BTW Randy, Me and a few other friends will be bashing our Revo's/MGT's/LST's in Fremont tomorrow (Saturday). I have 20 cones and we have some wood ramps that we setup a coarse with to do some Monster racing. Let me know if you have time to come out and play.

Ya know what would be really cool is a Christmas tree and some timing lights.
Know anybody with that kind of stuff?

That may be cool but a lot of work in the end. I just might do it too!


I kind of wanted a first a jump, then bunch of rocks to fly over and then mud bog or something. I also wanted it to be bracket racing so the person that is the closest to their estimated time wins. Nitro against Nitro and electrics in there own class.
