Tough but fun. Nothing impossible without some dialing in and practice with the truck. Learned alot even with a brand new set-up and with a few tweaks it should be working good. I am ready for another.

Thanks to the judges and everyone that helped.

I think the courses where great. My theory is, if you drive on easy courses all of the time, you get good at driving on easy courses. If you drive on more difficult courses, it wll only make you a better driver.

I think I figured out the the Mexican Bounce problem with my rig. Hopefully I will be able to build my new rig that I am taking to the Midwest Indoor Championship before the next comp so I can get some wheel time on with it. If it still fails, I will go buy a Losi Night Crawler, slap some Rovers on it, and have fun!

I thought the courses were great also. I thought that 4-6 were to hard looking at them, but once we were driving they were probably just right.

Fun can for sure be had with a Losi Nightcrawler with Rovers on it, man I can't beleive how well Austin is doing. Maybe before long I can get him to teach me how to drive.




I blame the driver more than the truck for my problems, It would of been to hard to kick myself though. On that last course I ran I made gate 1 then fell of the bridge then wasted points/time trying 1 again instead of taking a repo to 1 (which i never though about until the way home), I ended up taking the bypass to 2 which was stupid ( or maybe I did clear 1 again but took out a gate on the way, don't remember but I should of took a repo). Then I made 5 clean and fell off and wasted the rest of my points trying to get back up for 6, once again I should have took the repo to 5. Hopefully with more pratice and more comps I'll start to think a little better.

Looks like I am the trend setter here. The Night Crawler is a great rig, you just have to get it some wheel speed.

Who left the big door up and let in all the snow? How we are to keep it at 67 degrees if we are leaving the door open? Now why Aaron is at work I have to go clean off the snow, but I will do that for you guys. Thanks for all the great support guys.

Hope to see you all on Saturday for a winter practice day 11am to 4pm
Also Friday we will be open like normal.

Thanks
RB
