| Re: RECON G6 "Rocky Mountain Mayhem" Scale Adventure Quote:
Now I'm looking for a little guidance. I just ran into a bit of a speed bump while trying to mount my t-runner body. My boyer chassis lacks body posts... I was planning on mounting the body to the side (the holes inwards of the sliders). BUT the t-runner lexan body is extremely thin down on the lower portion of the body. It's too thin the sustain the whole weight of the body. Also, the holes down near the sliders are not threaded. This means I'd have to have a locking nut on the other side, which would be a huge pain in the ass when removing/putting on the body. So... not too sure what to do. I suppose I need to make some body posts and somehow fit them onto this boyer chassis. Do any of you guys have any ideas? I don't really have the fabrication skills needed to braze anything (or anything like that). I'm hoping for a "bolt on" type solution. Someone suggested velcro, but that seems a bit weak for the purpose. Does velcro work well in a g6 event? I'm posting in this thread over in the 1.9 rig section... | |

| Re: Rippin' Lips RECON G6 & Terra-X May 18th. & 19th. The RT-X, RECON Terra-X, is a drivers race. You can race your scalers or short course trucks and for the first time ever, in Colorado there is a rally class. Any scaler is allowed. Just like the Crawlspace replied, keep it scale. Quote:

Adventurist Class, drivers walk at their own pace. There is a break out time so don't finish too early. It is the main class in a RECON G6. Thanks Crawlspace for the reply. The G-Crew is excited to be headed to Colorado. We will see ya'll soon. | ||

I can't wait for this event! Is there a head count on who is doing what? Specifically the RT-X. |

Attention G6'ers and Drivers... Location Change. Here is a link to the new location. It is primitive and most of you should know how to get there.... Bing Maps - Driving Directions, Traffic and Road Conditions |

Not looking forward to being sore next Mon-Weds, but it'll be worth it. Marcus |

Sure sounds fun! Even in my backyard! Sad part is I probably won't get to run because all my junk is broken and I've been to worn out to fix it. At the least I'll try and stop to say hi!

ATTENTION G6 DRIVERS!!! The location has changed, same area just on the lefthand side of Forest Road 550/Redskin creek road before the last G6 site. Look for the Axial banner and a red Ford F-150 truck Spread the word |

Even better! Same great place, but new terrain! I can't wait. I even replaced the broken parts on my rigs instead of just zip tying them. |
