Default Comp #4 Pics & Results

I didnt get too many pics today. I wasn't really feeling the whole crawler thing today so I just did my business and took off.

Thanks to everyone that came out. It was a great day to be on the rocks. I hope I didn't piss off too many people with the challenging courses.

Mike passed the scoring gig to me this week since he had to work on his new pos. I managed to get the results done, but it will take me a day or so to do the standings. I got a lot of pics too, but that will take me probably a few days.

Looked like a challenging course today fellas that should seperate the adults from the children, boys from the men and the women from girls.

Big time ups and downs with lots of off camber gates I know we left some orange on the rocks today.

I'd like to know why Greg is always in the woods by himself?

Here's a few more pics from today it was a perfect day.

GySgt Hartman taking is blue bug for a rock walk.



Troy 'the mayor of Bedrock" saying some final words over a dead crawler.



Is that a new Losi Crawler under the blue bug camouflaged so we won't see the secret weapon?



The Partsman and groupies.



The Partsman between a rock and a rock showing off.



Kevin you said this comp would be wheelchair accessible you pimped me.



The always debonair "Spider man" getting some driving tips from the "Partsman".

Great job to everyone. Aric, you killed course 2....nice driving.

Kevin, who helped you set up those courses? You trying to kill the Losi's or what:-(.

Looking forward to trying a new location next comp, should be interesting. I will be mounting up my new Rovers, these are about done. Can't sidehill well any longer and are starting to lose some forward grip.

Though I did smoke my Integy motor, I pretty much expected to. The Losi did drive amazingly well, but could use some more wheel speed. It is very stable and I was able to complete both courses with a pretty much stock rig (used aftermarket rims, but they are just heavier). Once the gearing issue and CVD issue is resolved, it will be a solid rig.

I'm actually fairly disappointed I had expected a smooth release of this highly visible new shaft truck hopes where high.

That's really good to hear Casey that the truck has promise IYO. I was hoping like so many others that it would breath some new life into the competitiveness of the shaft truck and maybe it eventually will.

Our rig is basically 3 years old for the most part and and we were thinking about a new rig we were hoping this might be it but now I'm not sure what it might be.

On a lighter note congrats on your finish the course was challenging.

Same to Josh nice job on your finish I believe you were the top "shafty" very impressive.

Well if you guys want in on some of the sh!t I've gotten too... I did get help from Casey and Gary on the courses.

As far as the Losi's... I thought they were supposed to dominate?:?

As far as the course it was scary awesome we loved it don't listen to the cry babies I'd tell you all good job everyone had to drive the same thing and we won't get any better driving if we run on kiddie courses.

The MOAs were all fairly close and the shaft community was even closer so it was a good competition all things being equal.

Default I had the shakes bad

Did anyone else ever get that excited when they completed there first course. WOW I was pumped up for like an hour, even after I found out I actually did not finish, pointed out after 9th gate. Even started bonus gate before I found out ,but I didn't care that was the farthest I've made it so far.
I can't wait tell I get a dig and good esc.

I'm hooked , been getting better each run.


Thanks to everyone for the encouragement on course 2 thats what got me through it , the good words and support are outstanding in this club...

THANKS TO ALL

Hey Tom you got a good result congrats.

I knew some Gunns in high school Machine, Gatling and Hand Gunn any relation?

You must be a old guy most young people have never heard the term Tommy Gun.
