Default Quick test @ a new spot...

My kids, the MRS. () and I went to check out a spot today. My super is down waiting on $$$ and some revised servo mounts and a better rear steer servo, so I took the little Courier out today I had a dismal outing @ the comp last week with this truck and the super. Got some new pieces and some adjustment tips from some of the fellas to help with the 2.2.

Kinda similar to what Scott/CRF450 and 666 found out in Parker, just a hell of alot closer to me The MOABS were nice and sticky on those hot *** rocks

just 2 kids, the other kids saw the crawler and came to check it out. The camera died, but they did get to drive for a little bit. We use the 3 tip-over rule...3 times and you pass the remote to the next one in line. I need to build another crawler/basher for the kids to hammer on, I break enough crap as it is

It just dawned on me where that is and if I am seeing the houses I think I am seeing I did most of the surveying on that block and never realized there were rocks in that spillway

SHHHHHHHHHHHHH




I know there are better spots around, RR, Palmer, Horsetooth and the Finals spot, but I like this it's nice and close, and it's on the way to and from work. And it's got some nasty wedges in there
