South East Michigan

[Scooter80]

Hi All,

It's been a while since I've been on this forum, but I don't see much activity in South East Michigan. I'm thinking of buying a cheap ECX Barrage Kit to build and mess around with (previously built an old school CC01), but don't know if there is anywhere to run in around the Auburn Hills area? Any suggestions?

Thanks, Eric

Let's see some SE Michigan rigs!

Here's mine:

ECX Barrage Kit, ProLine 1.9 BFGoodrich KO2 All Terrain TA Tires, Gmade 1.9 VR01 Beadlock wheels, China sourced side-view mirrors, China sourced red tow shackles and some misc. scale decals.

Scooter I’d like to schedule a run. I’m in Clarkston. I was thinking of maybe hitting the big dig on Brown rd across from Target.

No, not me ... I'm relatively new to RC crawling.

Are you talking about the quarry or the new construction area? I would like to run some trails; a lot of county and state parks around! I'm sure there are some good trails close by.

we have alot of good parks to run at. Elizabeth park, lake erie metro park, woodland hills nature park, davisburg are just some of the spots that actually have rocks.

Where is the park in Davisburg; I'm not familiar with that area?

Mill pond on Davisburg road. Looks like they’re starting at 11:00 instead of noon. Class 1,2 and 3. No scale points.

How did the run go? I wish that I could have made it out there today!

Went well! Nice turnout. I suggest looking up Michigan Scale Crawlers and 313 Crawlers on Facebook for upcoming events. Also, I think they’ve had get togethers near the Auburn Hills fire department in the past, so there’s some rocks somewhere around there...

I'm fairly close to Auburn Hills; I'll have to drive by the fire department and look for areas with rocks. I had heard that there were some runs in the Auburn Hills area in years past.

I'm close to both Lake Erie MP and Elizabeth Park. Where abouts do you do your crawling in the parks?

[Scooter80]

With spring approaching, I'm looking for a local place to run my ECX Barrage. No luck last year finding decent trails in the area (I prefer to run trails vs. strictly rock crawling). Where are all the good places to run in SE Michigan?

Thanks, Eric

There are some good trails at Bloomer Park in Rochester Hills that we run. Also a creek/run off we run there also. It’s about a 5 minute walk from the back of the parking lot. Here a few photos from the last time I went. I have the blue Toyota.

Looks like a great place to run! Nice pics; thanks for sharing! I’ll have to check that park out, it’s not too far away!

Come out on Saturday June 1st. Going to be a good time. Lots of crawlers, lots of racers. Will have hot dogs and raffles going on.
