Default Western Mass Crawlers

The snow is almost completely gone and i was wondering if anyone had been thinking about a springtime meet in april maybe, to dust off the rigs and see what eveyone has been working on this winter... Any suggestions?

If you can find a good place that is clear, I'm in. The mountain will be closed for awhile.

Default Comp in Framingham

Hey Guys,

It might be a bit of a drive for you but we are having an indoor comp this Saturday in Framingham, at Wicked RC (280 Worcester Rd, Framingham, MA).

Otherwise we start outdoor crawling on April 16th... But again it may be a drive.

Dust is right!!

been thinking, but that's about it. Spent zero time this winter on anything other than work and family stuff. Basketball absorbed a ton of travel time this season.

There is a spot in Greenfield, but haven't checked it out. It would more of a trail run.

Don't expect Skinner road open for vehicles to the top until mid/end May.

The road is shaded, and on the backside of the mountain, so even the hike could be a real drag. I think Axialnut has just volunteered to hike it for us and let us know don't forget to time it!

I'm thinking of taking a trip to RcMadness soon to try out their new indoor crawler course. It looks pretty big and tricky so it'll give me a good chance to try out my scaler with the newly added much needed wheel weights
