|  Indoor crawling is coming to CT... Pinshop Hobbies in Waterbury CT is currently building an indoor crawling course. it's looking good so far with some very unique obstacles and a variety of course options. if the opinion of a senior editor from a local r/c mag is any indication, the track is going to be sweet. the owners, Steve and Pat are going all out on this project and I hope some of you will check the place out. they're really excited about it. i don't think there's anything like this anywhere else in CT, well if there is, I haven't heard of it. |

| We went to pinstop for the first time last weekend. Seemed like a decent place. Saw the crawler course. My first reaction from someone without an axial type crawler was it was narrow, steep and very bumpy |

The day I was there, they were running a 1.9 on it. It looks like they built it around 1.9 and 2.2. You should do just fine | |

| Went there yesterday. Its tough for my rig (CR-01), but I managed some lines there. Pretty fun though. I could still use a few more ounces up front I noticed. Pretty fun to use my Grasshopper on their carpet oval too! |
