I think you got tonight backwards!
The way I understand the rule is they do have to blink or stop lights etc

And

I said that Melons is legal... within spec. Also, doubt i can bend this bumper. It's stout.

She's able to walk today but very low energy and weak.

I'm staying home with her today... I'll probably take a half day tomorrow.
I'd hate for her to die alone.

Really sorry to hear that!!!!!

It'll become a shelf queen... maybe I'll do some fun run gtg's with it.

I could run the Ascender in TR/C1 but would need a bigger body I think...

Were going to setup a little trail series in Rockford. I think we sold around 40 scx10's in December so hopefully we have a good turnout.

So just for the heck of it, I put an old 2.2 PL TSL SX on Melons last night to see if they'd fit under the fenders for WW Class.
There is some rubbing but it could work... but I still plan on using Zeros Wraith chassis for that class and running Melons in TR Class with 1.9 IROKs.

[johnnyh66]

I don't think any of my rigs could do this.

I like the first front one the best. Looks little more sized right.

i think its if the lights are functional (blink etc) you get those func points on top of the basic light points, and i was meaning if the bumper was barely within spec to give it a little convincing.

sorry about your dog dude.

[johnnyh66]

yeah, I read that convo this morning and realized what you were talking about.

Thanks...
Susan picked her (them) up today while I was at work w/o me knowing about it.
We planned on 7pm, after I was home from work but she did it at noon... I was pretty bummed.
And then, Roxy had another seizure after she was ppicked up.
Anyway, Susan is dropping her off at my place tomorrow morning and she's going to live with me full time

Edit: positive thoughts

[johnnyh66]

I'm working from home tomorrow to stay with Roxy... and hopefully for a while, only going in for meetings and stuff.
I'd hate for her to be alone if something happens.

[Die-Laughing]

Damn.. Bummer man.

She'll be happy to be spending time with pops though.

i wanna beat the shitz outta this now.

[johnnyh66]

I keep looking at the Scale Nationals U4 and Rally classes... iI'd kinda like to getbin on that. I bet I could mod the F'n Bastard for U4.

Gunder, what motor are you running?

[badhoopty]

we need a section where we can make fun of people posting lame ass shit on rc crawling fb pages. because.... good lord there are some dumb people out there, and even dumber people encouraging them.

maybe i should make a flame-based rc crawler fb group.

[johnnyh66]
