What time? How strict are you about the rules and do you have a link to someplace where I can read the rules. I think my ax10 should be legal, I havn't changed the wheelbase but I don't know what other rules there are. I have to go in to work for some maintenance on our machinery but hope to be off by around noon. Let me know what time and give me some directions and I'll try to show up. I've been wantin to get out crawling bad lately but it is boring to go by myself. I've completely rebuilt my ax10 since the last time I actually had it on the rocks. I'm itching to see how it works now. Here is my crawler. Mike...you told me you painted some bodies but holy cow!! I had no idea they were that nice. I know where I'm getting my bodies from now on. | |

I imagine we wont be really strict about the rules for you..... this time As far as what time.... not too sure yet.... We'll probably meet up at Northland and head up to the site, if you are coming out.... The place they are thinking about going to is above where the indian paintings are just west of Kila on Hwy. 2 The quality of Mike's work is second to none, and he's an overall really nice and helpful guy.... he's earned my business (whether he wants it or not)....... | |

Thats great..I'll watch here for you to decide on a time. I'm not really that interested in competing...I'd mostly just like to hang out, run my truck a bit and check out what others are running. I agree Mike is a nice guy. The first time I met him we were crawling behind Northland and he was already giving me advice on my crawler. I had just built it. It was completely stock and that was the first time I ran it. | |

I have no problem with going by the book...I'm just not sure my rig meets all the rules. I think it does after reading them...but I'm sure you guys will let me know if it doesn't. Hopefully I'll be off work in time to head up with you fellers. On a different note, anybody else order a Slash? I can't wait for them to come out. Wanna do some racing with some of the other guys... Back on topic, if I don't make it up to Kila I'll go snag pics of some of the other places I was thinking of. Anybody tried crawling at Bernie park up by the river just before you get to Hungry Horse? If you look past the tree line it looks like there would be some good climbs. Jeremy | |

Your rig meets the regs as long as it;s not over 12.5 inch wheelbase and you don't have rear steer. The body you have is comp legal... If we need to make it a little later on Saturday we can do that so you can make it.. | |

Don't worry about setting the time later for me. Go when its good for everybody. I never know when I'll get off work on maintenance days. Hopefully by noon, then would need an hour or so to get showered and ready to go. It is pretty common to be in there all day on saturday so don't change the time counting on me being able to show. I've been stuck in there for 30 hours of overtime in one weekend before. It depends on what we find. I gotta head out for the evening, need to take a nap before I go to work. This is great, I look forward to hooking up with you guys from time to time. I get bored really fast crawling by myself. | |

Holy Cow... you guys don't post for days, and all of a sudden ya fill the board in one day, and I wasn't even here to chime in. I'm up for a comp Sat. I gotta do some stuff Sat morning but I can bust it out and get out... early afternoon would work best but I won't make you guys plan around me. I'll bring my tennis balls just in case. And I have some scoresheets we can use. Might have to adjust a li'l but they will work fine I think. Awesome to see a new member from our area too btw. Mike did you get my emails last weekend? |

tried to catch up with you guys on Yahoo Mike, but I didn't have messenger so by the time I downloaded it and got it installed you were already offline.

things are looking up for me this saturday. My wife has to be at a baby shower for her friend at 2pm. I can use that as an excuse to get outta work at noon. I'll tell them I have to watch my kid while she's gone....although she is taking him with her. So that frees me up for some saturday afternoon crawling. lol
