I bought the ax10 ARTR back in September 2008. The axles, transmission and JR servo are still up and running today. This was Oct 2008 at my first comp with pretty much a box stock Axial with Novak electronics.  Then it went to this. Basically the same, de-oranged with a Grappler.  Next upgrade was a ShaftD chassis from JP Custom RC's and Traxxas Slash front shocks all the way around. This was also when I fell in love with Losi springs.    Then it ended up like this in August 2009, which is pretty much how it sits today. MSD Hybrid chassis, Axial comp shocks, FXR/45t combo and MSD wheels. It is now the shop truck at The Hobby Garage and gets the snot beat out of it on almost a daily basis.   |

Not my first crawler(geared and spooled with an emaxx a few years before this) but the first one I fab'd together. Revo that I converted to electric and 4linked. It had the most bestest torquetwist and axle steer in the world     |

Got my first. A 1/6 nylint for Christmas of 2007. Run it for about a year. Got out of the hobby. In Feb of 2009, I got my first "Hobby grade" crawler. My MRC. Had it for about a year and sold it.

That's a nice-looking home-brew, Tanis. Lots of articulation.

Technically, this was my second crawler. I briefly had an AX-10 RTR, but without a connection like RCC.com, I couldn't find anywhere to run it, so I promptly sold it. About a year ago, I got an ARTR:  I found some places near home to run it (as per the pic), and found this place and hooked up with other local drivers. I couldn't leave well enough alone, and it morphed into this:   An Underground Crawlers (RIP  ) Fastback bodiless chassis and D-mount, Novak Rooster Crawler ESC, Integy 45T lathe motor, Associated XP1015 servo, Junfac driveshafts, Berg wheels and Rover shoes.And about 3 months ago I picked up an XR-10. With these two, I am quite content. I was kinda late to the game. |

Talk about some ridiculous Flex in some of the pictures, I especially enjoyed the pictures of the jeeps.

My first crawler was a nylint 1/18 scorpion, then I had a new bright 1/10 scale crawler from wal-mart, then I got an MRC, traded it, now I have a Axial Honcho!! I like took steps up within the years.

first crawler was an scx10, traded it for a clod crawler, then trade the clod for a honcho, which is what I have now.
