Default What are your favorite sites/blogs for crawler news, tips and reviews?

Other than this wonderful site, where else do you guys go for Crawler news, tips, and reviews? Unlike RC racing there doesn't seem to be many sites dedicated to crawling info.

Just eager to learn more...

Thanks!

There are no other sites that are really worth any thing as far as tech and info go. RCC is the one and only.

From time to time I'll look around to see what else is out there, there are a few sites that focus on scale trucks that are ok, but this is the only one that I have found that is one-stop-shopping for just about anything off-road scale and crawlers...

There's not much traffic on it, but I check out the RC section on Pirate4x4.com from time to time.

The adult in me wants to scold you.

RCC, every body else just references or talks about what's on RCC, or tells you to go to RCC.

NO point in going anywhere else that only tells you to go here or "this is what I did bla bla bla, and you can see my thread on RCC.

Get the theme here?

Really? That's your response? You found it necessary to make that comment?

So if I were standing in front of you asking this same question you would make a smart @ss comment like that right to my face? Or are you just a d!ckhead when you're sitting behind a keyboard?

Why the F would you people flame a guy because he's asking if there are any other good crawling sites out there that he should ALSO be reading??? I made no implication that there was ANYTHING wrong with RCC - NOTHING AT ALL. And you might notice that I actually paid for that spinning gold star above my avatar so I can actually SUPPORT THIS SITE...

So much for being a helpful community. You guys are giving rock crawling a bad name.

Thanks to the people above who actually offered a helpful response.

The only crawler site is RCC. I just got an AX10 this summer and I have learned more from this forum and its members than anywhere. The only other thing might be some local clubs forums, but the one in my are is only good for finding local places to crawl. Or to find out about local events. All of the members of those forums are probably on here anyways.

Thanks Brian. I also find this site to be very helpful. I went to my first local comp today and the guys were all really helpful. The site they use locally doesn't get much traffic so I recommended that they try to use RCC more often.

Guess there aren't any crawler-specific sites that focus more on news, reviews and tutorials. RCC seems to catch all the news pretty well but the "Reviews" and "Tech" sections are blank. Most of that info is in the forums I guess.

Thanks to those who tried to be helpful. We can probably close this one down now before more flamers jump in to hurl insults and sarcasm.

Default RCCrawler is a very good site

Some of the other sites are as follows:
http://www.crawlcanada.com - Canadian RC Rock Crawling group
http://www.utrcrcfreeforums.org - Utah RC Rock Crawler
http://www.thecrawlpit.com - Austrailia RC Rock Crawling group
http://www.startseite-rockcrawler.de - Germany RC Rock Crawling group
http://www.rctech.com
RCCrawler.com is one of the best in dealing with all aspects of RC Rock Crawling.
I hope this helps.
