Driving. They both killed it!"thumbsup"

Carpools...
 

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

We're looking at a daily 140 mile round trip drive (2hr 40min) from the event "metro hotel" to the comp site and back.:shock: Three days of events total 420 miles of driving (8 hrs.). Early start times...ouch.

To the international guys this is just a first world problem no doubt."thumbsup"

Sounds about right, although the size of the site, gorgeous rock, and ease of location securing with the city make logandale a hot ticket.
All the locals love this site over most of local (10min drive) spots.

That is correct. Between camping and the two hotels in Logandale, there shouldn't be anybody forced to stay at the casino. I will be renting an RV and staying in the off road park.

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Why not stay in Overton? My commute says 7.6 miles, 20 min.

Mesquite sounded tempting because I know its cheap and has cheap food. I just dont think I am up for that 40 min drive. 1hr 20min from Vegas sounds crazy to me!

Anyway... North Shore Inn sounds like a winner to me!

I've got to locate something like Erik has or I know I'll blow it. I'm not a morning guy. 7.6 miles sounds about perfect. I'm no camper.

I'm a local so the drive it normal to me.
So if anyone wants to follow me out each day we can work it.

Sounds like the spots in Logandale or Overton would be your best bet. I wouldn't want to drive an hour each morning either, but some folks may find priority staying at a casino :mrgreen:

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Reservation in Overton already made. The queen is on the phone now. Lol. 7 miles vs Vegas which I've seen a few times is a no brainer.

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

And Erik's info is right. the dude at the hotel was rad. We found that it was cheaper to combine flight and hotel on the strip and then book the North Shore in additionally. Which will be a great excuse after the comp to go back to the strip and spend a little time being goofy

Glad you worked it out Crawllife, my signal at work is lnt the best so I just got your msg.

Yep. Thanks man. Just a few min away and the hotel looks pretty good. I just have to get 3 motors pulled, sent off for rebuild and I should be good. Getting to meet you, Erik D and see the Canadian crew will be awesome. These events are way more than driving for me. My wife travels with and hangs out. It's fun stuff.

So did you decide on this place Erik or are you still shopping? To hang out with the guy that got me into this hobby is gonna be cool for me.

Renting a house, Vegas, rock crawling, hanging out with a bunch of sausage.. It's like my birthday's 2 weeks early this year! :ror:

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

I didn't know the cool kids where going to that hotel. It will be like high school all over again. Getting stuffed in my locker and stuff. Lol. I really can't wait.

Took me 5 tries (two online, two different agents on the phone, and once more online) but finally got flights booked, %uckers aren't getting any sneaky extra money from me. See you all in a handful of weeks!

Trying to sort out plans for this comp. Is there a schedule of events for what is happening that I missed somewhere?

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Below is on rcorva.com I haven't seen any other schedules yet.
Anticipated Schedule:
Friday- 2.2s comp & TrailMaster day event, with Trail Comp courses integrated
Saturday- 2.2P comp, Unlimited StandardTrailMaster night event
Sunday- Super, 1.9, Unlimited Mini Free roam Trail runs
Sunday- Super,

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Maybe we can schedule our " family photo" for Saturday? As usual, Sunday isn't looking realistic. It's not totally out but one of us will have to work early Monday.

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

We both know who that will be:roll:

Good stuff! This should be a blast. I'm trying to head there Thursday to see what kind of rock it is. I've hiked in red rock 5-6 years ago but that was long before RC and debating over tire choices. Look forward to seeing you all!

Dang ..... being so close I would hope there would be a little more rigid schedule than that :shock:

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

How much more rigid do you want? Do we ever change the basic layout at comps? Everything after the normal classes is bonus anyway...
Show up, have a blast, give the guy driving as much crap as possible. [emoji106]

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Rigid as in what time anything takes place? When is the finals being ran? I guess NENC raises the bar to high?? The most organized event I have seen thus far! Battlegrounds is right there with them.

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

For those of us spending $1000+, booking flights, renting cars and getting hotel rooms it would be nice to see a little more information. I know exactly how much effort putting on a worlds event takes and understand but we are inside 2 months and there has been very little information aside from a few posts spread out here and there.

This is not a little get together, there are guys flying in from all over the US, Europe, Japan, etc. This is Worlds and needs to be treated that way.

That being said, I will be there and I am down to have a ton of fun. "thumbsup"

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

I am working on the concrete schedule for times, I'll get em pinned down this week for check ins, finals, etc... Once this gig starts making money instead of bleeeding it like a stuck pig maybe I can hire some help, eh?

Re: 2015 RC Crawling Worlds- Las Vegas Sept 11, 12, 13th
 

Maybe I have faith in John Holmes or maybe after all the events I've been too I realized that it's not the 1 or 2 guys Hosting the comp that pull it off. It's the community of people always willing and wanting to have a blast that seems to pay multiple times over.
Just my 2cents.....

While there are valid points from M and BC, the laid back sides point is valid. The coordinator doesn't set the schedules as much as we do. If we get there, get shit set up and say " come on, finials are today", people will move and make it happen. M and BC know I'm one of the guys that are making a pretty big hike for this and contending isn't my every comp routine to be gentle on myself. I just want to see a mellow environment and happy people once this jumps off. I've messaged John 2 times this week about motor service with no reply so I know he's busy and I have to believe it's with this. We know the dates, we know the location, we will be good. And yes, Jslick does know how to put on an event and have it go well. Lol. I'm bias tho:).

Unless it is my direct email it is turned off or blocked so I can focus on engineering and production. If you are looking for service, calling or emailing my business directly will get you immediate service.


My days are split between the lathe and getting Worlds buttoned up, so you are right that it is what I'm busy with!
