I don't have a rig but am going to build one over the winter. I am still trying to decide what to buy. What kind of rig are you running?

I have a wraith and am Waiting for my mattzilla wraith chassis to come in for my koh build, chech it out its under the 2.2 forum, the mattzilla toyota tundra koh for savagebeast thread. I like wraith axles best. I'd look on the for sale forum n get an upgraded used wraith n go from their, u will save $$ that way

Where do people in LaPorte go to crawl? I haven't found any good places within a decent drive.

I go to the mountain bike trails, and the jumping bridge. More big hills than anything, the mtb trails do have a rockey spot or 2. We should run sat, may rain sunday. 219 393 9034, ryan shoot me a text and let me know. I also have a landscap rock bed at my apartment a couple big rocks n round gravel, and med rocks, good for messin and testing setups

I had fun bro, just wish I didn't smoke the motor! Got it all refreshed and threw the 11t arm back in. Good to go now.

I got to test my pro 4 / mmp wraith today. I'm talking off the 4ws, no need. And I destroyed a hi speed hd ring and pin gear set in the rear. First run, this thing is straight nasty! Deff s part breaker, cant wait to get it on some steep hills! !!

Portage River walk and lake front
Chesterton Coffee Creek Park has some great rock surfaces
Salt Creek Public Fishing areas.
Deep River Park in Hobart

Nwi ttc is based out of crown point and we run deep river park in hobart, stoney run park in winfield, imaginary glen in portage (fun runs) and a few other places in the area for fun runs. The series takes us to bradley il, minooka il, and nwi. Best way to keep up with the season and any fun gtg check out our group on facebook request to join and I will add you.
