I like the experiment! I'll be watching.

yea, the holes are not the main issue. If you grind a little on the tube one will line up.

DLux has already found most of the hurdles. He has a thread going in the berg section on these cases.

I am not sure if I will build these up or not.

I will answer this question in the thread to attempt to keep all the info in one spot.

Truck is still working good. 2nd place by 1 point!

We comped at the Superlift ORV in Hot Springs, AR on the "4-Fingers Trail"
The rock is slick and add a little water and it gets challenging. Makes you work on the climbs and gates.

Yep, that was the first time I have ever let anyone run comp courses with my rig.

Here is a video, shot by RolandRockShop of me on a course at Four Fingers at the Hot Springs ORV.

oh snikes!!

now i feel specail

[Szczerba]

You can tell I only practice at the comps. Lots of reverses to get a second and third shots at some gates. Truck walks right up but only after have to take a reverse here or there to get re-lined up.
Thanks to Rolandrockshop for the videos.

Courses were slippery and tough.
Ran out of time on the finish gate.



Course 3 was rough too. Gate 2 had a boundary.

[Szczerba]

Ending up pulling out the win at the NWARC, Fake Dams comp yesterday.
Two gates and no reverses on three, 10 gate courses, no bonuses. One gate was from a on-the-lid flopping back and forth mistake into a gate.

This a great spot that we have been comping at for almost 5 years now.

Thanks to RockedUpRicky for the pictures.

That's 120% EPA Szczerba Beard power.
It barely qualifies as a goatee.

2nd place at ARCC's Comp #3. Pinnacle Mountain State Park

Courses were a little tougher. Course 3 ate my lunch. I set it up so I had to run it first! It's a whole lot of flopping and flipping around. I would skip it.

Yep got those internal skins from y'all in March of 2011 for the Moon Buggy. Peeled em off that chassis and slapped 'em on this setup.

[Szczerba]

Pulled off a 1st place finish at the ARCC comp in Gulpha Gorge yesterday. Havent changed anything on the truck in months. Well, i did install a new HiTec 7950TH servo the other day.

Im sure some videos will be up soon.

Course 3 in 2.2 Pro was an 8 gate, who can get the most laps/gates. 4 minute time limit. Couldnt touch your truck or a gate, if you did, you were finished. Reverses didnt count.
One progress was -1 point. So I progressed 51 gates in 4 minutes.

Nice work Shane. I'm glad you got the ol girl so dialed in.

[mustangboy_347]

nice shane , glad to see the rig working well makes me feel good about my choice of chassis and having you to guide me with my set-up

[Harvo]

We had a course like that last season. It was a blast. Everyone loved it but it really blows the scores apart from each other!

Great job too!
