PARC, Phoenix Arizona May 8th Event

[minitrucker]

Ah, that sucks its was mostly planes. Who set it up? Was it a group of crawlers or a hobby shop?

[kevinlongisland]

it was an r/c club. but they were pretty much one of those clubs that runs a flying field.


we may be heading out to crawl this sunday (april 17th), check here:
Phoenix, Arizona - Sunday the 17th

ok, so whats with people that aren't even in arizona voting!!!!!!! (twisted!!!!) (nicholsracing) we just won't take their votes into account.

i have a couple ideas, you guys let me know what you think.

1) At the next event i will bring all my comp stuff (tennis balls, score sheets, etc) those that want a comp can set it up and run it. Those that don't want a comp can go crawl for fun, do testing, etc.

2) Looks like we have enough interest, do you guys want to alternate every 2 or 3 weeks between a comp and a get-together. I was leaning more towards every 3 weeks to do an orgazined event, alternating between comp and get-together. but it's up to you guys, so let me know.

i'm just trying to find ways to make crawling fun for as many of you as possible. throw out some ideas, and let me know what you think of mine.

[minitrucker]

Hey Kevin, nicholsracing is a local guy name Nick and he is the one that ran the twin force. I will go to any event, comp or just for fun. I dont care as long as Im around other crawlers and running my truck.

[kevinlongisland]

oops! sorry about that nicholsracing. my bad.

[azvader]

How about it everyone? Jay, Kev, Rusty, Steve, Josh, AZVader, etc. (not trying to leave anyone out... )



I'll be there!! I talk to the guys up there all the time. I'll try to bring some rocks and logs I use for indoor testing.

Thanks Mike, the stronger "crawler presence", the better! The rocks/logs are a good idea, bring 'em! I'm gonna try to build some sort of short obstacle course that we can show off on. We'll even let 'em try their stock TMaxxes on it or something... I'll probably get some concrete blocks or something too.

I traded my maxx hybrid to Mitch up there too, if 'ya didn't know.

See you there!

-Rich

P.S. Bring some crappy bodies for your trucks, it might make my paint look better

[kevinlongisland]

The next parc event will now be on Saturday, May 7th, NOT may 8th (mothers day). take note all!

Well that sux, sorry to hear that. If you want, find some pom poms and show up as my chearleader!

[azvader]

Rich, hows it going with the expo at D&D Hobbies Sunday. I'm still going to haul out some rocks and stuff. What time is the event? I found some hunks-o-asphault by my house I'm snagging too.

ok guys, we need to start working on the may 7th event. we need to decide where and how it's going to happen (comp or get-together). let me know if you are definitely coming and if so where you would like to go and if you want to do a comp or get together.

[minitrucker]

I would like to do something at the top of the mountain. Either comp or get together.

[kevinlongisland]

Sounds good Kevin, I'll do whatever I can to help. I'm also down for UROC. Bambi has the day off, and I think she wants to go because she missed WE-ROK. So if you want to, you can ride with us. Are we bringin' the rc's to the event?...I plan to.

[kevinlongisland]

yeh, i guess it can't hurt to bring the r/c's. if we can't use them they'll just sit in the trunk.

[WRMorrison]

Sounds good. And you never know, maybe we can get some ESPN coverage while we're at it
