Awesome bro! I like going out there. Endless exploring. Keep up on here too. So I know what's going on. Will be doing some night runs out there soon now that daylight savings ended and it's getting cooler. You have rock lights?

No rock lights yet. I need to get in one of these comps just for fun. The night run was the creepy crawler event a few weeks back. I usually just go in the mornings.

As soon as I get some memory cleared on my phone I will be shooting a video for my DIY rock lights. Can build a set for under $20. Are you around the Ocala area? I usually like going early morning, but lately I've only had one day off a week and that's family day. So I haven't been able to go. What rig are you running?

I’m in lake county. I’m running my honcho, my UMG10 and capra at the moment. I might go again to scale mountain this weekend. We’ll see. Instagram #ekpaulyrc.

Right on. I'm in Summerfield about 3 mins from Scale Mountain. I have a Trx-4 and OG Scx10 Dingo. Both crawl like goats. How you liking that Capra? I'm very interested in one, but rather put any funds I get into my current rigs. I don't get to go crawl as often as I'd like but get to go once a month or so. Need to get together and go crawl something

Awesome rigs! Yeah definitely shout out when you池e going to head out there. I want to get into making my own cages and bumpers etc. Maybe you can give me some pointers. The capra is fun for sure, i had a hard time getting it to make some lines that my other trucks make. I知 going to try and not spend a bunch of money on it, just try and tune the suspension and tweak it to get it to be an awesome crawler.

Thanks! I enjoy messing with them. Cage building is very enjoyable to me. I plan on building more. That was the first for me. I built the bumper on my Trx. I've always been big into fabrication. I'm always down to help you get one going. Suspension tuning can make a world of difference. Good tires and foams are worth every penny. Those rigs look to be very capable. I'm trying to fit a Santos run into my schedule in the next few weeks. Would you be down for sunrise crawling? I might be able to slip out early one Sunday.

I plan on coming over that way one day after the new year. It's hard for me to drive far to go crawl since I'm limited on crawl time and having 2 awesome places within 10 mins of my house makes it even harder. I do wanna come check it out for sure tho. It's looking like a fun course. "thumbsup"

We made good and did wonders with what was donated last year and we had left over from the old course. But now we are in uncharted land and we have BIG visions for the home stretch.



And we have the option to add another 1/4 acre to the challenge course as well.

SCRAWLERZ is going for it. With the help of others... we will meet our goal.



I don't know if they would donate them but the company ciraco underground does allot of work in the villages. They are always hauling dump trucks full of rock (Florida field stone) to their yard. You might give them a call. The guy I talked to a few months back said their yard had a huge pile sitting there. I would try calling some site companies in your area. They might have trucks going right by there with rock and if they do dump them there they won't have to pay a dump fee. It's worth a shot.

Anyone interested in joining me and a buddy for a early morning crawl at the Santos Tiny Truck trail on Sunday morning? Could use another scale rig or two for shooting my scale video for my Team Lockedup membership challenge.
