Re: Northwest area
 

Nice pics! Looks like you had fun. "thumbsup"

Re: Northwest area
 

i sure did untill my spur gear stripped out! lol i let a friend of mine drive it and he has never driven a crawler so he didnt know that when a wheel gets bound up to back off the throttle but hey i rather my spur get destoyed than an axle or trans gears!!

Re: Northwest area
 

does anyone want to get together this coming week or weekend for some trailing/crawling???

Re: Northwest area
 

Anyone near Bryan/Defiance area?

Re: Northwest area
 

Yep. I'm out in Wauseon. "thumbsup"

Re: Northwest area
 

my grandpa lives in defiance...im about 40 min south east of there

Re: Northwest area
 

Any good trailing or crawling spots between Auburn, IN and you? Don't want to travel more than an hour or so. Maybe a little more for a GTG or comp.

Where are all of the NW Ohio guys? We need to get some GTGs planned.

Re: Northwest area
 

I'm still down here in St. Marys. We will definately need to get something setup.

Re: Northwest area
 

anyone want to get together tomorrow and do some crawling/trailing at the park in tiffin???

Re: Northwest area
 

rc2008, I won't be able to make it up that way, wish I could. My oldest has a dance recital in Van Wert tomorrow (Sunday).

Re: Northwest area
 

i would like to have a get together some time...how about the 16th or 17th??? we will have to decide on a place and time......i think it would be fun!!

Re: Northwest area
 

you know if you guys get togather a little little closer i'd show up! i am in van wert so if i was able to follow someone i'd be able to go! but it would have to be a sunday i work sat, :(

Re: Northwest area
 

Just a theory, but if we could find somewhere around the Lima area. I think that would be a good middle-ground for us. I know it's a lil bit farther for you rc2008. I was thinking maybe "Teddy Bear Park"? It isn't too far from the 75/81 interchange. It's been a couple years since I've been there, but I remember it having trails to run on and possibly some water areas.

Here's a Google maps link:
Teddy Bear Park, Lima, OH - Google Maps

Re: Northwest area
 

i think lima would be a good place to start....im only about 45 min or so away....maybe we could meet once or twice a month and go to different spots each time so that way we dont get bored with just one place???

Re: Northwest area
 

I'd be down for that, though I don't know many places yet. It'd be nice to find a spot that wasn't mostly flat. LOL

Re: Northwest area
 

LOL i know what you mean....the good thing about where im at there are some hills

Re: Northwest area
 

any one else have some ideas???

Re: Northwest area
 

Just south, from Teddy Bear Park there is a walk/bikepath, it crosses a small river/creek. I'm not sure if there is anything along it that might be fun. Ultimately, we wont know what is there until we get there. lol

Re: Northwest area
 

that is true we wont know untill we check it out

Re: Northwest area
 

i'd be good for that just post a date and time, and location to meet, i would be good for a sunday thing, i am not sure of the parks around lima. but never hurts to try!

Re: Northwest area
 

I'm down for Sunday, June 17th. As for time, I'm open for anything. I think teddy bear park has electricity, so if needed we can take a break to charge batteries. I only have one 5000 2s lipo, but I'm gonna try to order a few more when I get paid this week.

rc2008, are you running the wheely king in your sig?

turbomini, what type of rig do you have?

I have a SCX10, if my neighbor guy isn't able to go, I might have his Wraith at my disposal.

**I just realized that the 17th is Father's Day, maybe we should move it to the 24th???

Re: Northwest area
 

yes i am running the crawler king and the 24th would be fine........maybe more people could come out then??

Re: Northwest area
 

i have a pretty much stock venom creeper. i will be moving the week after the 10th so the later date would work better for me, :D but i have a 12v charger for the stick packs i am a budget type of crawler

Re: Northwest area
 

Not sure how much you guys like to travel, but Round 2 of the Indiana TTC series is June 23rd in Marion, IN. Should check it out. Not too far of a drive.

Re: Northwest area
 

So it looks like Sun, June 24th it is then. Now what time sounds good? I'm open to anything. My wife suggested 2pm, so everyone had a chance to eat before they arrive. But honestly, I'm open to meeting up somewhere for lunch and chatting it up before hand.

Re: Northwest area
 

i think getting lunch would be great! how about 12:30 ish?

Re: Northwest area
 

That sounds great to me, lets see what turbomini thinks, then we'll need to decide where.

rc2008, do you have any favorites in Lima?
