|  New member intro area. A place for new MNRCRC members to introduce them selfs Hello everyone. I am green to the scene. I am very interested in crawling and am taking the jump soon. Not sure if I am going the clod or Axial route yet. I'm trying to get rid of a heli or truggy first so the lady friend doesn't fly off the handle. I might pick up a used one to get the ball rolling and go from there so keep your eyes peeled. I am in Fergus Falls so it will be a trek but I could make a few events once I am up and running. |

| I would highly recommend starting with the Axial over a clod if you have a tighter budget. To build a competitive clod you will be spending $200 on servos alone, plus another 100+ on tires and rims, two motors rather then one, and you will be repairing it more often then you would a smaller rig. Hope to see you out there this year  |

| Well, that didn't work  I was going to move these posts to the "Any crawlers in Mn thread", and add you to the roll call list, and it made a new Any crawlers in Mn thread. Edit: I changed the title to a new MRCRC member introduction thread. Last edited by freetimecrawler; 01-26-2008 at 01:27 PM. |

| New crawler with a Scorpion. I thought I'd post this in here too. I was in a monster truck club a while back when they got to run in the Metrodome for the first time. Alot of the people in that club were into crawlers so I thought some of you guys may be in here. I'm new to crawlers. A friend of mine recommended I get an Axial Scorpion so we could go mess around with them outside, so I went and bought one. Now I built a custom Clod back before this kinda thing was really popular. I was so happy to see a kit designed for something like this already so I didn't have to tear apart a kit and modify it to work. Anyways, here are some pics of my truck. It's super cold up here in Minnesota so I won't take it out much more until it warms up again. AX-10 Stock kit just trimmed the foams to make the tires softer Novak 55T lathe motor KO metal gear servo Super Rooster speed control Proline Bushwacker body     |
