You're right, nevermind. For some reason, I was thinking of it like a stopwatch.

Which event is that? Am I missing something good?

WRMorrison · 04-01-2005, 07:56 PM

Here's an update:

I'm bringing the 2.2 Xtreme and my maxx. I haven't received my new replacement servo from Hobbico yet, so I'm only gonna have front steer

. Hey Kev, how about making a rule provision so that I can't get penalty points for reverse? (Just for getting my line right, not for trying several attempts because I didn't make it up/over the first time

). How 'bout it? If not, I'm gonna whine for weeks and say that this was the only reason I didn't win the comp

Come on, I don't stand against all the sticks that will be in attendance!

Maybe I should change Stein Hünd's name to "mulcher" because I'm gonna shred some sticks this Sunday!

Hey Rich, I have a XTM X-175 you can borrow if you want.

Let me know,

azvader · 04-01-2005, 09:38 PM

Hi Everyone,

I was invited to crawl w/you guys once by Josh ( I think ), but it was a rainy weekend. I've never enter a rockcrawl and hope I don't get schooled to bad!! Your trucks are quit intimidating!!! I look forward to being there Sunday morning.

I've got a Jugg, Clod, and a TLT-1 ( can't decide which one ) . Can I enter a truck in the 2.2 class and one in the Unlimited class?

Also, have you found a stopwatch yet? I've got a couple of bicycle computers that have easy to use stopwatch functions on them. I'll bring them with.

I'm bringing a spare 645MG with if you still need one WRMorrison. I'll try to be there at 9:00 am ( need the practice !!! ).

kevinlongisland · 04-01-2005, 09:53 PM

azvader, welcome. hope to see you out there on sunday. we should have a good turnout at this event. don't worry, we won't school on you too bad.

just kidding, were layed back and don't rag on anyone. you can run in both classes if you wish. we will run the two classes one after the other. have not found a stopwatch yet, so it would be great if you could bring those cycle computers. 2 if you can.

Rusty and AZVader: What's an XTM X-175?

Seriously (I'm pretty much an RC newb. remember). I'm assuming it's a servo. I really appreciate the offers guys, but I'm running the 1/4 scale servos directly off the main pack (7.2V) because my esc doesn't have a high enough bec, and I don't want to take a chance and fry your electronics.

I talked to Mitch @ the LHS tonight and he said he'd get some of the Hitec robot servos in, so I'll probably switch to those when he gets them.

As far as the rule change, no prob. If I don't win, I'll just crush the stick that did by crawling over it (this pig of mine is HEAVY...

)

WRMorrison · 04-02-2005, 08:12 PM

Update:

I got the remaining 1/4 scale servo switched to the front, then promptly fried that one too...

. Soooo, I borrowed one servo from Kev, and getting another from Fireman tomorrow. I decided to put the SR on anyway.

I'm coming for ya!

azvader · 04-02-2005, 10:53 PM

Those easy to use cycle computers I have don't work to easy without the bikes attatched. BIG 5 had stopwatches on sale, so I picked up a coulple.

See Ya All in the Morning!!!

Not to sound too much like a newbie, but what's a "stick"? Are they the funky looking crawlers made out of one 1/2"dia. rod and some clod axles? Call me old school, but I like the traditional 4-link look.

kevinlongisland · 04-02-2005, 11:07 PM

thanks for picking up some stop watches. yeh, the sticks are those funky looking crawlers made with one rod.

they do look different!

minitrucker · 04-02-2005, 11:14 PM
