Team Axial has made it home from rnd 4 & talk about saving the best for last. I can't do this location justice with my limited vocabulary, but I will say if you was not there, you missed a slice of driving heaven. 169 trail markers of pure granite bliss with just a shot of clear dirt.

Thank you Matt & Mandy & everyone else who helped set up or participated in the RCOTC. I have had a blast driving in each one & getting to share drive time with some of Nor-Cals best drivers.

Thank you to my Team Axial Teammate, ThomK. I look forward to our next event & when it comes to team work, we have set some standards.

Just got home after a slight detour to a family BBQ... All I can say is WOW!!!
the terrain here was second to none without a doubt! Thanks to Matt & Mandy for setting up such a killer course. I'd also like to thank Jason (JRock) for setting up the Team LERK mini comp afterwards... You guys definitely got me hooked!!

My teammate and I haven't driven together for over two months so We didn't do as well as we hoped to...... BUT WE FINISHED!

I'm looking forward to the next round and hope to see everyone there.

BTW... thanks to Captain Axial (Parker) and his teammate ThomK for making the trek down beautiful Hwy 4 to show support for the RCOTC group, it's always a pleasure to see you guys!

James I'm really sorry that you weren't able to make it for this event. It was definitely tons of fun (considering all the damn granite).
If I'm not mistaken, there will be two more events... But I could be wrong so hopefully someone else can confirm that.

Hope to see you at the next event!

Parker, you are a DRIVNMF'er.. Thank you for showing support and choosing to spend what little time you have hanging out with all of us and getting your drive time in with the RCOTC. Congrats on the finish Team 775.

We all are looking forward to Axialfest, Cantina for the Con, and what ever else happens in between. Thanks for keeping us and the whole scale scene on our toes with endless G6 fun and innovation.

Team 209 thanks for putting in the time, gas money, and solid support for this event and crew. We really do appreciate it and had fun hanging out.. Glad you guys got some solid drive time in..

I think you might have the mini fever after this one...

See you at the next one.

Mike...Thank you very much for all your help with putting up all the signs and holding down the fort.. We had a great time hanging out and camping, and that spot has endless terrain that was perfect for this event.. Look forward to more good times..

Team 668 had some breakage early on, twice, but they still finished and got all their progression points.. Good finish.

Thom, you and Parker were putting on a show of how team work is done in this event.. Quick recoveries, smart lines, tow straps, sand ramps. You guys used your recovery arsenal and finished strong.. Thanks for all the solid support and feed back for this event and we look forward to hanging out soon.

Pat yourself on the back J, cause you helped make the last two events run smooth with all your help, as well as shared a second location with all of us. Thank you for bringing out the Tonka and putting on the super fun mini comp, that was almost way to much fun for one day. We had a great time hanging out and look forward to the next camping trip.

Congrats on another first place finish, you and Jerry put on another "how it's done" session of team work, smart line choices, and thinking ahead... Good job.

Butters.... We had fun hanging out around camp all weekend with you guys. You and Eric are a solid part of this group and we thank you for all the support. Looking forward to that mini comp video, it will show me what needs tuning.. Thank your sister from all of us for the excellent chilli..

Congrats on the second place finish

Jerry, thank you for helping out with the signs and holding down the fort with Mike. We always enjoy your company and appreciate all your support.. Glad you made it out, we had fun hanging out around the fire.

LYNN we need to convince her to be our camp chef, what a cool, out going person.. She and Eric were taking care of the whole camp with super good food all week end long.. Any one not there, missed out... Tri tip, chicken, hot dogs.. That was sooo good.. I hope she had just as much fun camping and hanging out ..

Matt, you're absolutely right about the "Mini fever"... I'm working on a deal right now to pick up two (2) Mini Pros... Wish me luck!

That was my first time ever driving a Mini in a comp and honestly I may have actually had more fun doing that than running the RCOTC course... It was awesome!

Can't wait for the next one!

If you liked the mini style of comp, than you would probably really like the LERK comps... If you have not already been to one.

Good luck with the mini hunt..

Let me see if I understand this, you DON'T have to keep the SAME 2 drivers as a TEAM throughout the SERIES?

That video turned out great! Just watching it made me realize some of the things we could've done differently. Can't wait til the next round. Hopefully we will do better!!
