Its final, looks like we got 5-10 in for Jan 17 10 a.m. at Barts place, Gee Excavating in CR. Sounds like a good time can't wait to see what you all got and if mine is comparable.

Cole82 I still have big green just not insured to drive. I guess that makes my tracker little green cause it's the same color. Besides the fact I am still un employed and the medical insurance is killing my fun money account , I have to drive the tracker .

Matching green trucks. I hope your crawler is the same color, then it could be micro green.

If I have the funds I will build 2 sheets, but can only garuntee one.

I will try to make it on the 17th also. I am new to the crawling world and am not sure i will have my rig ready by then , but i will sure try. It will be a good practice for myself. I am needing to get a servo,batteries and charger to get it up and going. BTW i am located south-east of iowa city 15 miles so its not that far of a drive. hope to meet all you guys then

5-10 rigs or guys?

I'm gonna pick up 4 sheets and see how much material I have to cover them. Sounds like a hell of a showing I have rocks, more like boulders but they're outside. Weather pending, this will work out great. Everyone might want to bring a card table or something to set there gear on. I don't think I will have enough table space for everyone.

CD45 has 2 sheets Cole has 1-2 and I will have 2 for sure shooting for 4. Is that correct.

Welcome Catch96

Sounds like a good showing, i will see if we can make it, i don't have any room or tools to make a sheet just moved and the garage is full of crap, but i did get my crawler running. Cats hate it.

I haven't got crap done yet. I have everything just '0' time to put it all together. Between the weather hunting and Christmas's. This week will be better, fingers crossed. Can't wait to see everyone. If anyone has any ? let them fly.

There is an Econo Lodge out by the Air Port and quite a few hotels up on 33rd Ave just north of the shop. Really close either way.

Its nice to see that you guys are getting your panels done also! I was at HT yesterday for a while crawling on ours & I have to say it was a great idea to build a course that way Good luck on your panels & course!!
