Default Swap Meet

I'm set to attend the Folsom Comp, but I have limited room in the back of my TJ, without dragging the trailer along, so...

please let me know if anyone is interested in buying my TXT axles, tires and rims and extra stock small TXT parts, if I don't hear that anyone's interested I'll leave them at home. I'll take $150 for everything. Difs are JB welded and axles have servo plates fab'd. Tires grooved. Rims narrowed. Low hours on axles.

Don't mean to turn the comp into a swap meet, but hey it sure makes transactions easy.

It's almost time for me to get wooped at my first comp!!!!

For all of you that miss the group that meets at 10:00 o'clock. On your directions to the meeting place, your final road you take should be Douglas Blvd (if not please tell me). To get to oaks point you going to want to head east on Douglas Blvd. If your going the right way on Douglas you'll run into this sign.

That's the Granite Bay intrance to Folsom lake. Douglas dead ends into it. Once your inside the park just follow the signs to Oaks point. You should arrive at a dirt parking lot. From it you should be able to see us.

Bringing two trucks is fine. You'll just have to pay two entrance fee's. I think though that there is a limit on cars at a single campsite. You'll have to consult Badger on that one. About alcohol, I'm positive I've seen signs at Folsom that so NO ALCOHOL (sp??).

There should be plenty of overflow parking to park your trucks.

Bender was going to ship me some of his adapters so if I get them today or tomorrow I will bring them for you to borrow.

If you really need them you might want to have bender overnight you a set.


Here are the crawlers I'm bringing.

Badger - What no Mountaineer?
I was curious to see it run.

I'll be there definately, I'll be meeting everyone else at Lakeside Beverage on Sat.

Haven't heard from anyone, so I'll leave my spare TXT axles and parts that I'm selling at home.

Anyone have an E-maxx trans for sale that they could bring?

For the comp, I'll be bringing :
My TXT / Maxx'd axle'd crawler
Takle box, radio, charger etc.
Ice chest, with snacks and water for Sat.
My brother

A little worried, feel like I will probably be the only crawler there without rear steering. So I'm way to use to backing up a lot!, Not good for a competition.
Hopefully other areas of my crawler will compensate.

It's is in the body shop getting the roll cage repaired (RCKjeep). It seems the driver was a little rough on it.

I really don't think that everyone is cool like that. Lot's of parents and kids will be there, remember that please. Oh, and you'll need to check in with me as soon as you get there, I'll need to uhhhhhhhhh, approve your rig, or something.

On that note: Everyone please be carefull with what you choose to bring and do. This is a RC comp., family event, for everyone to enjoy and relax. I would like to see everyone have fun, even in their own way, but be very smart about it, lets not embarrass ourselves or the event or RC Cralwer. But like I said, enjoy yourselves, I plan it.

SNKID: How far of a walk is it from where you park the cars to where the wheeling is at? The reason I ask is because one of the guys has a problem with his feet and can't walk on them too long, so if it's not far, thats awesome, if it's a little bit of a distance (over 100 yds.) we can deal with it. I just wanted to know ahead of time. Also, do you think a wheelchair can get around there? This is a very capable person, just wanting to know so he can prepare ahead of time.
