| 10 years strong!
Wow, today marks the 10 year anniversary of when I flipped the switch and made RCCrawler go live. So much has happened in these last 10 years that I never imagined would be possible. I now have literately 1000's of friends from every corner of the world. People have traveled all around the globe to crawl together with their toy trucks and built lasting friendships from it. We have members here that have crawled on every continent of the globe. I personally know of 2 weddings and 2 children that have have been born directly because of matches made here on RCC. Our logo has been printed on event shirts world wide, has been used in weddings, and has even sadly turned up on a tombstone. As members we have pulled together and raised thousands upon thousands of dollars for children/people in need. Some numbers that blow my mind. We've been running for 3,650 days in those days we average: -91 new threads per day (151 in 2013) -1,139 new posts per day (1391 in 2013) -20 new users per day (22.4 in 2013) -In 2013 we averaged over 4,000,000 page views per month. That's over 131,000 page views per day, over 91 per minute, over 1.5 per second 24/7/365. -Harley is our #1 poster, with almost 21,000 posts, he averages over 6 posts per day! Badger and I are honored that so many people call RCCrawler home. We are honored for each member that participates on the forums and make this a great place to be. We are honored for each vendor that helps push the hobby and develop new products. We are honored by the big manufactures that have stepped up and helped make crawling a mainstay in the RC world. For that we thank each and everyone of you. When I started this site I was told by many people that it would never work, crawling was just a fad. I've often wondered at what point I can tell those people they were wrong? This is all much more than just playing with toy trucks. |

Man this "fad" is one if the greatest things I've came across. I've literally had 100's and 100's of RC's (probably closer to the 1000 mark) and I can say that this is by far the best and most friendly group of people out there. I'm proud to say I've been a member since 2005 and I hope this site keeps going for many many years to come. Thank you to everyone that's keeps the wheels turnig here!

I love this hobby and RCC sure is what makes it what it is to me. I have had some very tough days lately and this is my one constant. I love the members, the smiles they always give me and pray that this little happy place will never go away. I have never been so involved in a hobby or community like this. God Bless RCC. Thanks to Jason. Badger, and all the other members and vendors that keep pushing this site to be the best. Much Love and happy 10 year!!!! Paul |

Awesome! Thanks for building a place for us all to call home for so many years! Some of the best times I have had in the past 8 years have been directly related to crawling and the people I have met because of crawling and this site. Long Live RCC! |

I have enjoyed being a part of RCC. I have met some AWESOME peeps! I have also gained some cool friends because of RCC (even you Jason). I have gained a wealth of knowledge in this hobby, good and bad. I hope RCC continues on and I will support this sight as long as I am here. |
