| NW ohio area!!!
Anyone in the NW Ohio area? I did an Ohio search post was over a year old so, I started a new one. I'm new to this hobby and was JW. If anyone is and is interested I'd like to meet up sometime and do a little Crawling. I've got on spot that I've been to a couple times that's pretty decent and scouting for more. If ya'll wnat to set up a GTG let me know.

shierkahn, I don't know where you are in NW Ohio, but we have started building a couple of courses at our indoor carpet track at the Woodville Mall in Toledo (maybe you've already been there?). The first is mostly wood "boulders". The owner is working on a second, that is real rock. Come check it out, or PM/email me for more info. Once we get everything running, I'll post some pics and we'll have some competition dates setup. |

I've been there, but not since the course has been up. We bought the boy a mini LST from Tim right before christmas. A guy (Clay) from my lhs showed me a few pics of it. I'm in Holland by the way (SW of Toledo). I'm working on a new crawler chassis right now and plan to go check it out when it's completed. What's the cost out there for the course anyway? Thanks for the info. Chris

On none race days, we charge $5 for practice on the track, or running on the rocks. This helps offset the utility bills. | |

I am south of Toledo in Findlay. I run with NOSTR (Northern Ohio Scale Trail Runners). We have an indoor crawling area at Freddies Hobbies in Ravina, Ohio (near Akron). I will have to come up and check out the indoor area in Toledo. Find more about NOSTR here: http://z7.invisionfree.com/Nostr/index.php |
