I'm going to try and make this one. The F350 should be up and running by then. Might bring two rigs, but we'll see. I know I will be the HOG winner for sure. Not real sure about the scale points, but it should be fun just the same. I just want to get out and run my rigs around!!

Nice! The 350 should cap out on scale points I'm sure or close to it so you should be good. I'm pretty excted about this one, to see all the scale guys come together. Its all we do anymore when we go play is scale out winching, towing n all... its so much fun!

[kaneohecrawler]

Well guys this event is coming soon and I'm hella excited to hit it up with my fellow scalers and friends alike. Want to start at 10 so plz come a lil early so if you have any ?'s about ur points or about anything it can be addressed. A good show time will be around 930 for last min tuning and such. A post comp lunch with the competitors would be cool also. Well be near kailua so if anybody knows good grinds lend the opinion and we can hit it up. Good luck to all that show up, and well see you there

[kaneohecrawler]

Those are all the pictures I got. I'd just like to say....I was the one who didn't break!! Finally, one outing where I didn't break one part! Great time although, it was short. Thanks to everyone who came out.

[tazman]

Yep, fun day. Nick and I were the two who didn't break anything. Thanks to Nicks killer winch, I was able to make the first gate. Gotta get the weight moved around on my truck. Was nice to meet Luke and RJ. Let's do this again.

Lol, sorry Larry, didn't mean to forget that you didn't break anything either...guess I was just too excited! You need to put some wheels back there on that wheely bar of yours...that might help ya some. Ya, maybe move some weight lower and forward, you'd be able to crawl all over the place. Your rig sure looked great though. Killer paint job.

[Pau Hana]

Yups good fun, nice to meet you Larry. Thnx for the spare parts Nick and Travis. Bruddah Luke, sux about the radio. Was nice to see Tatum and Shaun. Mahalo guys, lets to this again.

[NGreen]

No Stress RJ. Hope that outdrive works for ya. It's just the stock one, so it'll only last as long as the one you have in there now did.

[ScaleWalker]
