Default febuary in florida

i had a great time at the last even but would like to see more people and some judged and scored runs so i can see how i can stack up next to you guys

i'll be diggin the hi lift out of storage this week and will start work on that

should i start working on another bridge ro maybe a rope bridge would be a fun challenge

i'll try and look more into what i can do with some concrete my buddy said he usually has piles all over the place that he dumps next time i see him i'll ask maybe if we all get soem rocks collected add in some concrete at usuable site we can have a nice place to play

i found a place in longboat key that has multiple sections of rock but id have to ask the lifegaurds there if we could get a couple people to paly on them b/c there are signs that say stay off the rocks for the swimmers and beach goers

so in the beggining of febuary what is good for you guys? first saterday or sunday of the month?

back in buffalo we got a pretty decent turnout on sunday, not sure how many crawlers go to church,

probally start round 1:00 if we get enough people that should give us at least three courses to run

let me know what else i can do to make this stuff good. im thinking about going up to georgia for there next event (not the one on the 6th)

I think 1:00 is a little too late. I'd rather see 10 or 11:00 personally. Seems to take a while to get everybody started. I will be hitting some of the SERCRC events this year along with some of the ATL events also. Might be going to the one you're talking about. PM me if you really are gonna go.

The LHS here in polk county know as Xtreme Hobby Zone has a rock course out back and is open 7 days a week and I talked with the owner last week and he said he's game to helping us set up events there and there is no charge for using the premisis and power and water are avalible as well as refreshments and bathrooms. LMK if you guys might be interested and I can set something up as it is a great place due to being smack between Orlando and Tampa.

scatt if im making good money and can afford too i'll make the trip out there, i just relized it would cost me about 250-300 bucks to get out there, for gas and hotel room for a night plus food and what not... so car pooling is a great option!

actually 10 is great for me that means that we would be running by 11:00 11:30 and be home for dinner and have plenty of play time

what do the rest of you guys think?

is that good for youz guyz? hows the date sound? lets here the opinions b/c i want to see lots of rock heads out there

I'll have pics tomorrow. As far as lodging, there are some low buck hotels in the area and a few campgrounds.

Sorry for the delay on pics, I was busy painting my 1:1 rig. Anyway here ya go. The layout is simple but we are welcome to change and modify it however we need and bring in more rock and modify the "corner" however we need. LMK if some of you guys might want to meet up and give it a trial run. The owners said if theres enough turnout, they will sponsor some comititions and such as well.
What you see from the road


Dirt track oval


Rock course



Sand drags

Pits with water and electric, all covered

That was over north of Baldwin. We were actually a couple of miles into GA. It was an hour for me from here in G-ville, I think 45 for them from Jax.

I didn't break anything but I damn sure stripped a couple of hexes today. Damn Axial's
