Your absolutely correct. Sorry about that Chris, I was rushing before I left the house tonight.

If I didn't have an inny and try to reverse through the finish gate I might have had you by alot more.

It looks like I had the gate markers in my bag. I don't recall putting them there, but I guess I did while cleaning up. I will try to bring them to work tomorrow.

Looking at the scores, that is awesome to see Rob's Nylint take second. Those cheater tires actually had some good grip going up that last water fall climb.

Default More pics...

The battery in my camera died sooner than I'd hoped so I missed a couple trucks but here are the ones that I did get pictures of...

Rob's Nylint


Steve's RBX


Sam's Tuber


Badger's Bruiser


Randy's RBX


Dean's Bruiser with TLT axles


Jason's Clod Stick


Badger's Clod


My TXT/Force-ish thing packing a PB&J in the rear


I think I got everyone's name and truck right. If not, please let me know!

Well they must have been some really good cuts because they truly hooked up. That and your rig is so light. I need to look into that battery pack for next season though I don't think my charger can charge it. At least, it wasn't an option anyway.


busboy74 - It seems like the links to your pictures don't work. I only tried a couple though. I look forward to seeing them.

I'm not surprised. This is my first time posting images. They're linked to my Yahoo!Photos page. I'll try Imageshack instead. Sorry!

Sweet. They are showing now. I missed this comment over your pic:
"My TXT/Force-ish thing packing a PB&J in the rear"

I nearly spit Coke out my nose when I read that. I forgot about your packed lunch on the back of your crawler. That was great.

That is why I built www.nor-calrcrc.com , just log in to the site and after an event I create a gallery for it you can upload your pics straight to it. Just trying to keep the Nor-Cal events in one place for people to view.

That was horrible. It was making me hungry watching him crawl.

Looks like I don't have permission. Give me access and I'll put them there.

I think the winch is a real scale equalizer and comp units should not use them. But some type of penatly should be given for each foot of line used. I built one today not sure what I will put it on. But I have one in the works. COOL!

Looks like you guys had a blast. I cant belive the po-po had issues with ya'll being there..

Well I dont know where to put this.. but this is where most of the bay area guys are at.. So I would like to make a suggestion for a place that maybe just one of you have been to.. Now this may sound way gay, but I awoke up one morning to bay area back roads.. and they were at this place in Berkely that just looked sick. So I took my date that night there and it was the SH!T..! Its a park and monument called Indian rock.. It is the most beuatifull veiw of SF and the bay.. but it is also a BIG rock.. and its that coarse kinda rock that would give you unlimited traction.. Its an awsome place to visit and watch the sun go down but I know there is hours of sick a$$ crawling there.. I think that someone in that area should go there, check it out and take some pics.. maybe even your rig.. I have a lot going on, but I will try to make it out there very soon.. Its a 35-40 min ride from Fremont.. but I can gaurntee its worth it...

here is the city site on it.. boring but you may get a picture of what I am talking about.. Also its totaly legit to be there even with an RC...!

http://www.ci.berkeley.ca.us/coolthi...nRockPark.html

Map on how to get there..

Now that sucks! I drive from beyond hear all the time to run with you! This is only 30 minutes from Walnut Creek. For a change some place close to me. It looks great and no cop hassel. Drive a gas saver or car pool.
