Everyone still in for Sunday? Only 20% chance of rain so we should be in the clear. I almost forgot about this and almost got roped into a wedding show on Sunday. Haha

Great pics guys. I'm so bummed I missed out. Started up my truck this morning, heard a loud squealing and then it died. Found the serpentine belt on the ground, it's been squeaking the past few weeks. I guess after 146,000 miles it had had enough. By the time I got it changed you guys were leaving. Next time for sure!!

Had a blast today in Dunedin. Always good to meet new rc Junkies. Dunedin causeway is definitely a go-to spot.

A somewhat boring video, some dead air spots(to lazy to edit it) but a little hill climbing action and footage of Dustins Taco rolling down the hill.

Curlew Park #1 001 - YouTube

Haha nice, that's typical Dustin, rolling down the hill. Unless he lets me drive, then I roll down the hill but I make sure it goes in the water too. LOL

Excellent! Going to put the TSL's and stock shocks back on the Wraith. They definitely ride a little higher with the stiffer foams. Might work a little better on the rocks.

I've found that the TSL's work better with a softer foam.. I would throw some dual density foams in if your running the TSL's .. But play around and see what works for you.. Check out BOSS CLAWS... 21 bucks a set and you can use the stock pink foams that come with them.. for rock running they can not be beat..
