my wraith is 12 inches wide and I have no problem with 13 inch gates just have to be a better driver after all that is what these comps are all about skilled driving and choosing the right line. And if I hit a gate I am not even going to worry about it its just for fun

I never get there early enough to set up gates except once, at Foster... and we ended up with gates that were up to 36"

Yeah 36" gates and people still had a hell of a time clearing them.

14" min is the new rule. Now i can run my wheels wider and complain that 14" isnt enough. Haha.

Some people think that clearing 20x 13" gate's with AR60's is as simple as driving straight through a gate.

Had a good time yesterday. Everyone seemed to be very cool. I know that there is only 2 comps left and i would not mind sitting them out so the guys that had compeated the from the start could finish with no interferance. i do not know how to keep score but i am sure that i can operate a stop clock or help out any way i can, then practice with my trucks later. i will make the next two events even if i only get to watch.
I would like to thank the guys that helped me out with my CVDs. H R CVDs suck (IMO) replacded H R with Axail CVDs and upgraded driveshafts with MIP. Worked on my Wraith from the time that i got home until midnight. Thats the reason why i did not post yesterday. Wife was surprised that i was done so early.

Of course the TSLs are under load.

We're happy to have ya come out Bad1!

I think it'll be fine for you to run the next two events... I belive we'll do one at Roselle and one at Foster. Both of those spots are more mud, hill climbs and logs... not as technical as Busse's rock pile!

Bad1, you can run the next two events if you want. Trail runs take alot less time than rock crawling. Should be no problem having everyone run what they brought to run.

The 3racing one isn't bad, I haven't had issues with creep on it on my Honcho.

Agreed, but I do replace the controller with a Heyok just to simplify things. Speaking of which, got one of each in the mail along with my IRoks and the Hexs for my Boggers and Claws.
