Big close numbers.

Crawlers falling off the frigging mountain all day.

You had to watch were you put your stuff so some careening rig didn't crash down on it.

Quite frankly I don't care how they did it at the Moab Nats I saw the videos and I'm going to shoot someone if I see a cable bridge.

The fact that the .05PIMP had a sh*t eating grin on his face all day was proof enough that evil lurks.

On a good note a noble shafty beat all but one MOA nice job tjb. Nothing like a underdog opening a can of whoop ass.

Rant over.

Looking at the pictures and they don't in any way show the difficulty or the elevation of the courses. But the lens made the trucks look incredible nice work Mike.

Looks like I missed a fun comp, nice pic Nicklepimp
Nice to see Troy came out to play for awhile. Does the tunnel go all the way to your apartment?

That would be twice as funny if you actually showed-up...

Battery issue, hmmmm, sounds familiar.

I think that (other than series scores) is the only hole he's been in for quite a while!

Keep forgetting about that, guess I was too busy talking to Ripley


I know unless something big changes, it's proof positive you don't need no stinkin Berg!
Although it would be nice to see Captain Zip-Tie put a American made MOA in the top someday.......

Yup I agree he's doing a great job on this Bully testing. Only one other tester has even had his rig on the rocks so far and Etype R has run two comps already and called the some major weak points. I just wish the gears weren't so loud if I go MOA it would be Berg if it was justed based on gear noise alone.

Good job yesterday. Nothing like seeing a underdog stick it to them.

Is there really a 1:1 rock crawling rig out there with two motors?

I got a new TCS chassis to try on my berg, also ordered some 35t motors, new 37C battery, and new shocks. I have the chassis and shocks but waiting for the motors and battery.
