|  Southern Nationals & RC Expo Crawler Course
Constantmotion (Greg) and I have started making sections for the Southern Nationals & RC Expo's crawler course. We would like to have 5+ people make 2 sections apiece. Guidelines for course sections are very simple and geared to have the sections flow from one to another. Guidelines 1. Sections should be 4' x 4' with a base made from 2 by 4's or equivalent height material. The 4' x 4' is more important. 2. Two sides of the section need to be the height of the 2 by 4 base for 2/3 of the 4' sides. The set height sides should be 90 degrees or 180 degrees from each other. If you make two, make one of each. 3. All sides need to be finished to the base with cement. We should have allot of non set height sides that that join to make some interesting lines. Volunteer to make sections in this thread. If you have any question post them here. Last edited by corkysk8; 02-17-2010 at 05:18 PM. |

 I don't know of anything set on color. I think Corky got Terra Cotta and Charcoal to mix together...not sure, though. It would look better if we all used the same color....or close Last edited by constantmotion; 02-18-2010 at 08:46 AM. | ||

Guys is you want to set a comp up...its cool. What better way to demo to the public what crawling is about than to show the competitive aspect of it. There would be plenty of time for demos also through the 2 days,but Im thinking a comp would be nice.
