Wister Lake

[OKJeepin]

We went out to Wister lake today (down at the spillway) and found some great places to run! Me, HogHead5150, Ryne, and my little girl had a blast! Here is a few phone pics from todays action!

What town are you guys located near? I'm from claremore, about 25 miles north of Tulsa. Just getting Ito crawling. There is an awesome place up near Grand Lake to take them!

[hoghead5150]

we are from poteau. the lake there had some awesome spots. lots of stuff for scalers all the way up to full comp ready sites. we really had a blast.

yeah over on grand lake (disney oklahoma) we took our 1:1 rigs up there and crawled, but haven't had the chance to get up there with the rc's.

just got word from the corp of engineers concerning wister lake spillway. NO RULES to the use of the spillway. only thing the guy said was "if ya get hurt it's on you, and it sounds awesome!".

I say we head out there today and look for some "comp" suitable places. I'll bring the camera and take some pics and post them here!

[hoghead5150]

i'm ready. the fastback is clapped together. it's not right, i mean stock driveshafts and steering links made from tiny allthread right now until my order from mcmaster carr gets here. i think it'll hold together to test, but the first big fall it takes i bet they bend like crazy!! the honcho on the other hand is ready to go!!

[OKJeepin]

If Hog can figure out how to email pics to me I will post some more!

[OKJeepin]

Got some pics from Hogs phone, great area! It looks to us like there are plenty of comp areas, but we have never comped, so we don't really know!!
No POSER shots either!







I told ya I had a screw loose!!





The Fastback was friggin' awesome!



Need a little air in the front tire of the gatekeeper!

Headed back to the lake again today to practice and do some tuning...pics to follow this evening!

[OKJeepin]

We had a great time at the lake today, broke a few things...




But all in all a great time!

[hoghead5150]

found out just how soft a panther leopard tire is. didn't rip, no holes, just wadded it up pretty bad and stuck it on the steering bolt head.




had a great time today, met a couple new guys. hope ya'll had fun today, come on out anytime and run with us.

Yea, it was fun! I'd be down for ever other weekend for sure! I want to get paint for my interior and get the side panels cut out and painted. It's basically a shell of a Wraith. I'm happy with it, but want to get weight on the front tires.

Glad you made it! That Wraith is looking good, a few little mods and you'll be set.


Got my tranny back together, the three screws that hold the 3Racing outdrives together backed off and caused a lot of chaos in the tranny case!
She is ready to go now, all locktighted together!

Well, have my side panels on, and the part my buddy snapped in all of 5mins fixed a little better. Wonder if my wife will let me haul a pile of rocks and unload them in my front yard? Yea, probably not! lol.
