We are about to begin an indoor micro crawler points series at sluggers located in Mansfield Oh. This will be held on Wed nights throughout the winter and is set to begin on Feb third with a gtg to discuss class rules and to become acquainted with scoring and the course. There will initially be 2 classes, stock and Mod crawlers. If there is enough interest a third scale class will be added. Sluggers is located at 1964 ashland rd mansfield oh 44905. There is on site food and drinks as well as an on site hobby shop. any questions shoot me a PM or call me at 419 651 7997. The course will be up next week for those interested in giving it a once over. Hope to see you there.

How did I not know there was a hobby shop there?

Is this the place with the putt putt and batting cages? I live right down 30 towards Wooster. Do they have the BND Micros in stock? I know I should just order one, but that takes too much dedication.

theholybull · 01-25-2010, 09:40 PM

yup thats the place, call mark and see what they have in stock, they said they were gonna order a couple the phone number is 419 589 2424. gonna try to get the course in there tomorrow. hope to see you there.

theholybull · 01-27-2010, 07:39 PM

Got the course up today. If anyone is interested stop in and take a look. Hell if you want bring your crawler and try it out.

NeoNeoN · 01-28-2010, 04:15 PM

I stopped by and saw this yesterday. Pretty impressive, he did a hell of a job building this. Ordered my micro there too and will be ready next Wednesday, hopefully.

It's the course that Bull built in his basement. Here is his original thread about it
Mount Me Crawler Course

This is him running his micros on it.
Trail pics from todays jeep trail run 56k warning

And I have to say that the shop there really surprised me. First, I never even knew it was there (still can't get over that) and then I ask them to order me a micro and it's cheaper out the door than I could order it myself, anywhere. Oh yeah, and the owner is practically my neighbor.

theholybull · 01-30-2010, 01:14 PM

Yea the guys at sluggers are great and they are cheeper than anyone else. I also added alot of rocks to the course in the empty areas of the course, if i remember ill head over monday and get some pics posted. if you just wanna stop by and check it out I will be there wed by 4:30. hope to see you all there.

ScalerLover · 01-31-2010, 11:59 AM

NeoNeoN · 02-02-2010, 06:12 PM

theholybull · 02-09-2010, 05:51 PM

im planning on being over there about 3:30. we will try to start running about 5. hope to see you all there.

NeoNeoN · 02-09-2010, 06:30 PM

I don't have to work tomorrow, so I'll be there on time this week.

ScalerLover · 02-09-2010, 06:37 PM

I should be able to make it there around 3-3:30ish cause i dont work tomorrow afternoon either.

Hope you guys are ready for Skinny Me Lol.... i know im anxious...

theholybull · 02-09-2010, 08:00 PM

i wanna try out that BWD chassis but i need to buy a new servo, i think sluggers has some of the hs55s in stock, if they have a 65 ill get one of those. I also need to get some batteries charged, i would have done it today but i put a lift under my jeep.

stock suspension

NeoNeoN · 02-09-2010, 08:28 PM

Alright damnit, if we say 5 and you guys are getting there at 3-3:30 ish I'm getting there then too. Early bird gets the worm. I'm going to try a weekly progress with mine so I'll see a progression, hopefully. Next week I hope to ditch the stock chassis.

ScalerLover · 02-09-2010, 08:40 PM

Ill bring my HS-55 incase he dont have one for ya.

Im planning on tearing mine apart after tomorrow and improving my chassis design so dont think im leaving it alone already :-P

theholybull · 02-10-2010, 09:22 PM

I got the vid from tonight done, ill get the scores up tomorrow or friday. had a great time tonight, hope to see you all there next week. If i dont have to wok monday i will head over and do some work on the course in the morning. I cant wait to see what you guys come up with for chassis.http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showt...60#post2293260
