|  Another stolen rig(s)
Soon RCCrawler is gonna need to have a "stolen rigs" section just like Pirate4x4!  It's been a rough week, but on Wednesday morning someone broke into my garage, and stole my Berg & my Venom Creeper. To add insult to injury, they also got my buddy's AX-10.(he left it here so I could swap some electronics) Also gone is a DX3r, DX3e, Oynx charger, balancer, 4 lipos, spares, a bunch of hex drivers, tool box, the kitchen sink..........The Berg had: El Nino chassis, Tekin FXR, Punk Dig, Hitec 7955, Vanquish DH comps/Sedonas & Vanquish SLWs/Rovers The Creeper had: digital camo chassis plates, Tekin FXR, CKRC behind the axle steering, Hobbico CS-170 servo, black Eritex comp solids/Panther Leopards The AX-10 had: black Proline tuber body, HB Rovers, dark green Axial chassis plates If you need any distinguishing details, please PM me. Thx, Paul |

Interesting too if they only stole your RC stuff, makes me think it was someone who knew you had it. I'll keep an eye out for sure and am really sorry to hear this. |

Sorry to hear about another crawler (or more than one) being taken. If you have any pictures you could post than they would be easier to spot. Good luck

Some buddies and I had a backyard comp last Saturday, and we figure someone in the 'hood' saw us and what goods we had. Yeah, we are calling them the RC Bandits since they walked right past a $200 Momo steering wheel sitting on my rock buggy, and went for the good stuff..................my Berg!  Been checking the pawn shops; called the cops in the first 10 minutes; been dealing with the insurance co.; etc, etc. Trying to posts pics, but the resizing isn't cooperating. Thanks for all the leads and ideas. |

That sucks to hear man, I hate thieves! What part of town do u live in? Iwould also suggest letting the hobby towns know also. Definitely let Marty know at the south one, if they can't figure something out, he would end up being the one called on.

Sorry to here about that, I'll try and keep a look out down here in grand junction if for some reason it ends up down here, never know but it might. Thats the bad part of stealing a crawler, their all unique and if its seen by a rcc member, then they are screwed, lol |

      Oh and from past experience I almost guarantee it is the kids in your neighborhood. Every time I have seen this happen it is always some kid, that saw it in your garage or you playing with it. I would head over there and express your concern to the parents. | |

I sure wish we could go back to public hangings on main street. That way everyone would be able to see what happens to the wicked. |

I will keep my eyes out for your rigs man. I work at the HT in wetminster and help alot of crawler people out. Trust me on this one...if someone walks into our store with any one or hopefully all of them they wont leave with them. That I guarantee I will let all the employees know tommorow morning and if the thieves come into my store they will regret it big time.
