Ok got a couple pictures yesterday. We do change up the course quite a bit, rearrange stuff and what not. Got some big plans trying to get into motion for the course right now.

Here is what it is right now.







Also for your viewing pleasure, I strapped a cheap go pro type camera to the back and on the top and took a couple short videos.


Sorry for the horrible cell phone picture quality.

here are the video links....

I crawled at the old location a few times and then ended up getting out of crawling. Got a scaler as well as my brother. He has been up on a couple Saturdays and is. Hugging me about going this Saturday. If my boy is feeling better I might make the trip up from Adrian. I think he said 4:30 start time. Hoping this course and thread come alive again!

The first round was pretty brutal for you guys since the snow plow went through first!!! There was a guy that showed up Sunday said that he plans to be up for the next comp along with 5 of his buddies to run scale so we will see how it goes! As well as the new guy for Comp Jim said that he will be back with a bunch of guys to run the comp class! Hopefully that all turns out to be true!!

doing some work on my rig so not sure if it will be ready by then. But I will be back, if not then soon after. Can I bring a muzzle and leash for a certain individual there lol.
Picked up some steel sliders and rear bumper for the jk. My brother is making me a front bumper. Selling my fxr ESC if you know anyone looking for one. Asking 60. Picked up a new brxl ESC for CHEAP and I am sending in to get waterproofed.


Just got a fresh coat of black appliance epoxy sprayed on the sliders and bumper.


Day after last comp got some wheel time in in my brothers basement. Driving is rusty but fun getting back into crawling.

If nothing else you should just show up!!! I just ordered seconds ago a FS-GT3B and all the crap to modify it. It is going to be my new crawler/scaler radio. If you hack it you can get it to run 8 channels!!! That will make it a dang nice scaler radio!! 8 channel recievers for it are only $10! I think I am going to play around in the next couple days with trying to get one of my other scalers ready to comp saturday. My little CC01 is cool but not really comp ready! And then of course I have my new secret weapon rig I will be bringing.....

One problem I have read on those radios is the on off button likes to go bad very quickly so while modding might consider replacing it with someing more reliable. But he possibilities of that radio are endless!!

Yup, we run 2 rounds of each. We are going to run scale class first I believe starting at 4, then run a round of comp, then a round of scale then comp. As always payout is based on attendance. I do know there are supposedly 2 guys coming all the way from Cincinati for the crawl saturday. I think that is pretty foolish of them but whatever..... By the way Headshok, I keep telling Butterscotch that I am disappointed in you....... Haven't seen you up there in 2 maybe 3 years!!!
