shoot me a pm me and Nitrojeff usually get together at least once a week and have comps at his or my house on some really sick terrain we both have 2.2 comp trucks and 2.2 scale trucks.

Lookin for a few crawlers that want to crawl during the week after work and not have to drive to BFE , also scouted a couple of places in olmsted falls that would be a test of any machine and driver

Hey guys!

I'm a 1:1 guy. Just picked up a Losi MRC. I'm in Lakewood, work in Brook Park. Anyone want to give away their secret crawl spots, or meet up for some crawling?

Here's a pic of my fullsize junk. Losi is still basically stock.

Yeah, that's what I keep thinking! I am really up in the air about 1/ scale recently so if I end up getting rid of it then I'll probably build a 2.2 crawler.
We'll see! I have so many ideas floating around in my head!

Maybe I'll sneak up to Jeff's house one night when you guys are crawling.

I've been looking. I told myself before I bought the losi I wasn't going to. lol I used to race 1/10scale buggy and 1/8 nitro buggy years ago. Still have all my radios and such. But man have things changed.

The turning radius on this thing sucks. Not just b/c of being locked. The steering setup doesn't have much travel and the servo stinks. BUT I'm having a ball. My neighbors think I'm nuts driving a slow RC through the flower bed.

So what am I looking at for a decent comp rig. What class is big around here(2.2 I assume). Axial axles, berg, kit? Think I've got some reading to do. Smashed my oil pan jumping my real rig today, so not sure which I should be spending money on.

you want a 2.2 comp rig. Something like a berg is best. I have a clod 2.2. Check the for sale section, it usually has something.
pm me your number if you want to check out our rigs, maybe a micro comp
