You got it, 2.2s usually do better then 1.9s out at the boat ramp. Due to the size of the rocks and mud, it's passible with a 1.9, but 2.2s make for a little more fun.

Being out in Geneva, im guessing youve got some land?

Ill keep that in mind when i end up getting my rig, was leaning towards a komodo off ebay but think im gonna go with the scx10 tr.

I personally dont own any but the people i live with have 4 achers and im about 10 seconds from the old lake harney boat ramp (where that body was found a few years back) all my family pretty much lives in Geneva so theres fun spots to play all around me

Go with the scx10, parts will be easier to get and are everywhere.

I'll have 2 sets of tires...losi claws and losi comp claws.

Edit: Also have grappler flat black body

DAMN.. looks like it was fun, wish i couldve made it out, i spent saturday looking for a hobby shop that had a scx10 tr in stock and finally found one.... superior hobbies of all places, so i got mine and been looking around at picking up some scale stuff for it and a few hop ups just not sure what to buy first... any suggestions?

another noob scale question i found a REALLY good deal on a set of 2.8 swamp dawgs are the classes strictly 1.9 or 2.2? or can i use these? i seen smm_cbf has clod duallys on his rig which btw is sweet

yea i understand that, but i didnt know if there was any type of rules or what-not, that and wasnt really sure if you guys did something like sactioned events with rules or if it was just a "run what you brung" kinda thing, granted ill have a set of 2.2s if they ever get back in stock just wanted to make sure since at the next GTG ill be out there running around

Pretty much the one main event that we do have is Top Truck Challenge and its a "run what ya brung" event so you can run any tire you want and shouldn't have to worry about it

Nice pics Ryan wish I could have been there!

sweet now all i got to figure out a way to mount them and have them clear.

... i hate being new at something and not knowing what or how to do it, but at least theres a bunch of people willing to help out and i apprecate all the input you guys have given me so far...

[CRAWL UGLY]

Eveyone's got to start somewhere

I'm suprised, no one really said anything about what they had for sale...next time, I say put all your crap in a box and lay it out on a table or somethin to show thats the crap your trying to sell

I was going to bring all of my stuff and a couple of boards to lay across the posts we all back up to and have a makeshift table but I had to go to bama for the funeral

If we wait a little bit longer it might work out better b/c everyone will be getting there tax money in and stuff maybe the end of this month might be good?
