well i did some driving where i live to find some rock for the next comp and here are some pics too.

this pics is on a beach where they are building a new bridge next to the old one and the rocks are goods size.

and this pic is at park that has rock patchs all over and this looked like a good patch.

and this was taken behind my work sorry for the crappy pic and i'll try and get a better some time this week and this some is for 2.2 scale rigs and it may be to small for the bigger rigs too, I think.

those first two pics look good, where they at?
whats up with what looks like a model railroad tracks?

rocpede · 02-12-2006, 10:18 PM

the first pic is sanibel beach between two bridges about 1 hour drive from my house and there is a 6 dollar toll to get there and its free to back through the toll.

the second pic is lakes park in ft.myers and this about 30 hour from house and there is a parking fee too and it's about 1 dollar an hour too.

and thrid pic is a rock patch behind my work and yes it looks like a model railroad track and it is good for 2.2 crawls. and this spot is free too.

I'm in for another meet/comp. and those areas look to be pretty good. It'll take some time to get there from NPR but I'm willing to go as long as theres a good turn out like at the last one. I'll have to see about fixing the Nylint so that I can bring it, just not sure how to fix the wheel hub. Wish me luck and lets start getting this comp organized!

flatfender · 02-13-2006, 05:14 PM

the park in the second pic looks like it might be a possibility.
got an address to there so we can figure out drive times.

scott sent me these pics from a bridge near Tampa

Scott · 02-13-2006, 07:32 PM

both pics are the same place thats the north rest stop on the sun shine skyway bridge.

rocpede · 02-13-2006, 08:41 PM

i stoped there to take a break and that looked like a good spot to have a comp or a get together and i hope to order the nn chassis kit from the crawler store this week so i can be ready for the next comp. and the clod frame is up for sale in the hobby shop too.

twisted4real · 02-14-2006, 05:30 AM

The skyway pics look good.I'm down..

Squid121 · 02-14-2006, 12:19 PM

Skyway is good for me, looks like a good area!

72Blazer · 02-15-2006, 06:46 PM

Just ordered the parts to finish the TLT.Hope to have it finished by then AND don't have to work.

flatfender · 02-16-2006, 04:12 PM

looks like we have a place, now we need a time, late march would work for me.

rocpede · 02-16-2006, 06:03 PM

sounds good for me and what about march 18 is saturday and i can get the day off too. what does everyone think of the 18 of march.

twisted4real · 02-19-2006, 05:57 PM

Sounds good to me,but I'm flexable.

rocpede · 02-19-2006, 09:12 PM

the 18 of march will not work for me because i have inventory that day at work so if we can do it on the 25 it should be fine i hope.

flatfender · 02-19-2006, 09:29 PM

I'm good for the 25th, now to find time to finish rocpedes jugg and mine.

I have score sheets worked up for the next comp so we can be a little more organized this time.

Scott · 02-22-2006, 06:50 AM

25th sounds good
We will also be bringing a mantis maxx crawler for russell to run in the comp. So whats the time of the event.

kevinlongisland · 02-25-2006, 09:33 AM

Looks like you guys have some great terrain for a comp there. Let me know when you get a date set and I'll add you to the event calendar. Looking forward to some cool pics.

ps Kind of makes me miss Florida. I used to live in Cape Coral and worked for Action Craft Boats.

flatfender · 02-25-2006, 08:02 PM
