Default Big Dog Comp #5 - Last pre series comp - Sept 22nd

This will be our last pre series (practice comp) before the winter series starts in October. If you want to know how a comp works then come on out. Admission is rocks. Just bring some rocks and run your rig. :-) Run what you brung style.

The winter comp series will be $10 1st class and $5 each additional class and vehicles will be teched before running.

So come out September 22nd and make sure you are ready!

Today Josh and I hauled in a ton more rock for the rock course. We setup a nice side hilling setup and some rock bridges to add some new challenges. I think it's going to be awesome. Get those trucks ready!

Side hilling action:

Strange. I didn't notice any deja-vu moment.

well I was going up about 4ish, just so the kid could get some practice time in and to setup the mornings course. I can't really bring any more rocks this time although I would like too. However I am hoping that folks listened and bring rocks for the comp entry free tomorrow. :-)

I'll be up for the comp Sat. Just hoping that the wheel weight that I forgot to order came in today. Or I'm gonna run the stock tires instead.

Also got the truck to stop shutting off all the time. Had a setting not right in the ESC. Took Tekin's Hotwire to figure that out.

Not unless you're bored and want to practice.

Great turnout today at the comp! we had 8 people run in class 2 scalers and 3 in class 3!

Adam gave me a run for my money. He is a better driver then me, thankfully I have a pile of scale points in each rig. Once he's done building his I will probably start loosing.


As always see the official scores over at http://keystone-rc.com/forums/viewto...=69&p=207#p207

Good job everyone. Rhyan congrats on the win. I guess it is time to start building in all of those scale details.

On class 3 on course 2 I got you. You had 11 driving points and I had 7. I cleared the gate you hit. I went way wide then used my dig. I did have to winch once though. I rolled over on the lattice and winched to get back on my wheels. :-)

I totally should have done 0 on the first course like you did, but I was being a show off and totally screwed up.

You have some skills, that's for sure. I better keep practicing.

Nice. We both had a couple tough breaks in that class. I knew once I flipped that I was screwed. Oh well. I will get some more scale points for next time and start practicing. The competition is going to really start heating up I think. Especially with josh modifying his rigs more too.
