i'm trying my best almost everyday to get my coworker and his brother to build a scaler. they really like the comp style 2.2's cause "they go so many more places" other than those two it seems like everyone else into r/c crawling is at least an hour away. |

| make some good scale trail videos and invite people to come. These days there are people that drive almost 2 hours to get to Vasquez for our get togethers. If it looks fun and you get a few together you'll get more people interested in it.
