Yes it's the exact spot. There was water on some of it today so you don't get to see all of it. Threads with the same spot in it. http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27339 ......IOWA.....pics |

oh heck yeah. I will certainly be there whenever your next comp or gtg is. I can handle a 5.5 hour drive (assuming mapquest is right). It looks to me that an 18" WB would work just right for most of that stuff, what are you running cole? |

Actually that's a little long. Some have tried it and it didn't work well. A 17" Wb seams to be perfect out there. We have tried from 16" to 18" and 17 just works the best. It looks longer because I use a small body. You also want ALL your wieght forward. Next saturday we are having a GTG. The April fools day crawl. Last edited by Cole82; 03-28-2006 at 07:10 PM. |

Sweet spot foresure, I'm planning on being there for the June comp/gtg. I wish I could make it this comming Sat but its a long drive, who knows, if the weathers nice I might get a bug up my @ss and drive on down, thing is I only have the tlt 2.2 going right now. By June I'll have a clod to bring also.
