I'm from Knoxville. This is my first post. I have a lot to learn, so I signed up. I am looking for a trail crawling group in my area.

Hello world! I am new and I am from Oklahoma! I have been on this site many times before just browsing around. I have been into crawling for awhile now. I started with the Axial Ridgecrest, which is far from stock now. And now I have building my first SCX10, I got the Jeep JK kit which I have been loving, its not finished yet but almost there, just need the motor system and my Spectrum 4CH. trans and receiver and it will be done, oh and I also have a Axial EXO Terra which was a Christmas gift to myself lol, I lie it was a impulse buy on eBay lol. Glad to be finally on here and looking to get some great tips and to meet some more great RC enthusiasts!

Hello all. I'm not new to RC but brand new to crawlers. I'm trying to research what direction I want to go, i.e. scale, rock race, 1.9, 2.2, etc. I'm hoping to find an active crawling club here in the Birmingham area. I also plan on buying a star to help support this site. It seems like it's a very helpful site with a ton of resources.

Default new to rc crawler

Another new guy popping in! Not really new to RC, but new to crawling. I was a big RC nut as a kid, but got out of it for the full scale stuff.

Well, as is normal, my kids have started showing interest, so s couple years ago I got back in. I'm a big nitro nut, and usually run stadium trucks, but got into the monster trucks on an impulse buy.

After playing with a dedicated crawler a local friend runs when we go out, I'm looking to add an electric or 3.

How many is too many RC's btw?? Lol


Current rigs are a Firestrom 10t and Savage X4.6. I'm looking to ad at least 1 more nitro this week, but the same hobby shop also has Axial crawlers. I'm thinking of grabbing one of the big electrics , too.

It's become a family affair, and is far cheaper than drag cars. Still keeping my motorcycle habit, though. ;)

Here's my Savage with a shiny new shell, and the Firestorm in "daughter crashed, winter repair" mode. Waiting on 1 more part I had to order and time to finish tear down and cleaning.

Hi New to RC crawling, but not to RC in general. Found this site has a wealth of resources and has a great community. Still trying to decide to go for a 2.2 crawler or 1.9 scaler.

New here. My sons and I have been into RC for about 2 years, crawling only 6 months. We have 2 SCX10, 1 Wraith, and other HPI, Duratrax and Tamiya stuff.

I paid to join because the wealth of knowledge here is well worth it!

Thanks and talk to you guys again soon!
