Yeah, Gus... We actually met one Sunday mid January. I was asking a ton of questions about Crawlers and about "Robbob". I just picked up a used Axial and in the process of researching an esc and motor combo. I'm thinking about Novak 55T and a rooster? I will get over there one of these Saturdays and check it out.

Is there a sportsman class? I'm very new...

Default W.ma.

I live in Holyoke and run an Axial. There are a few guys on here from w. mass. Not a lot of places to go around here in the winter, but hopefully spring is on the way.

Kanine, you have to check out the posts for Skinner Mountain. There is a few of us that get together on a regular basis (once it opens). Had a huge GTG scale crawl there last year with about 25 crawlers! Yes, Robbob was there among many other awesome builders! I've been building a backyard course slowly, and this year I have a good local source of excellent rock to start adding too!
