Default For those who know Heavy's hill.....

Check it out.. Heavy's hill was crawled by my 6 year old Zack last Sunday!

I Told him if he was interested he could have my old tuber "Thumper". So we went crawling with Highmark Sunday.

I took him over to Heavy's hill and told him to try it. I showed him how to do it, but it took me about 4 trys to get it. Once I made it, I gave him the remote and said go for it.

Don't you know the little turd drove right up!

I hollered for Highmark to get over here and witness it, don't you know he drove right up it again!

It got me thinking, maby we outta have a kids class for those of us who want to get our little ones involved. I bet it would be kick a$$ to watch the little guys out there thrashing, especially since they don't exactly have the "control" thing down pat.

Anyway... Here's a pic.

Dirks son Austin competes with us. I am guessing he is 8 or 9. No need to make them their own class, make them run with the big boys, it'll only make them better!

Erm.






Your crack is what convinced me to go to moabs-the giant tracs just dont give the rear motor enough clearance. Almost had it though


Zack was awesome to wheel with by the way-he'll be wooping up on his dad in a few weekends

yeah i know what you mean.. me and colton can go crawling and I try a spot four or five times, give him the controller and right up he goes..it makes ya kinda angry, but happy at the same time. specially if some kids stay into this, imagine how they can drive when they are our age.... as for their own class,It would be cool. but also as jason stated, the way soem of them drive, make them run with the big boys. they can only get better..

that's like when i 1st started racing motocross, i could only get so fast and good as the guys around me.. once i got up in a higher bracket, i followed them and got alot faster and better... same applies here


congrats to the lil turd making it up your hill


JON- would not having any " actual" suspension articulation have anything to do with that also?

I have had my son driving since he was about 2. Now that he is over 3 he drives very well. I will be building him up and unlimited crawler soon.
