Yea I second the motion switching to 32 pitch is a good choice when going with the 3 cell..

Has there been any changes to the availability of footage from the Swine Swagger G6 in AR?

Ok so I have a few questions I found out about the recon g6 the hills have eyes event in Arkansas in October and was wondering I have a stock scx10 jeep wrangler I have mip drive shafts and a roof rack I know I need a tow strap I plan on making it lol I have a small budget of about 200 bucks that I can spend on up grades for my truck I have no lights at this time I have never comped or anything what is the best upgrades to get and I do have a complete scx10 slider that I will have for spare parts if this is the wrong spot sorry just trying to be prepared lol

A stock scx10 will do fine in a g6. For the night stage I would get the cheap axial led set and throw some headlights on.

Tally up the score cards..
who completed the drivers challenges..
who hit the least amount of gates..
who had the least amount of penalties and who payed attention on trail and found the items.

A bone stock honcho made it thru with a few repairs. If the driver drives smart he will finish no problem.
If you don't put lights on your rig,at least get a good headlamp.
Id upgrade the links if you hadn't already..steering and lower links to keep things straight.

[1santaever]

Ok that makes me feel better lol my jeep was a kit so I have metal links all the way around but that's it don't want to drive over 800 miles and not be prepared lol

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

Don't worry bro..
between all of us and our spare parts..
i think we could rebuild a truck entirely if we absolutely had to.

I know I carry enough spares to rebuild my rig.

[1santaever]

Lol well I'm going to book my hotel in a few days and if I break something it better be season and on video lol I have never broken anything yet I did have a drive shaft wear out

Ok, read through all these pages and didn't find what I was looking for. I need some clarification on what is counted as a scale item. I know the obvious stuff that you strap to the rig, but my question is on these items:

Windshield wipers (like on the tf2)
Functional lights
Winch (functional or fake)
Seats
Steering wheel
Side mirrors
Bolt on fender flares
D rings
Tire carrier

These type items are more blurry and I don't know???

Why has there been nothing posted about the very first East Coast G6 here in Pa at Rausch Creek ORP? I was hoping there would be more exposure or at least a write up.

All those count as scale items. Great question. I think Axial has a parts tree with windshield wipers, too. Windshield wipers are proper and really add a scale touch.

This might have been covered already but I am having a tough time finding it if so.. I have managed to get some individual LED's and a LED light bar wired up to my honcho, so I am set for the rig. However I noticed some people were also using headlamps or flashlights attached to the TX or themselves. Is there a limit on external/personal lights for the night course? Thanks

[DRIVNMF]

No sir. There may or may not be a " truck light" only section.

Figure out how many G6ers will attend and then PM Parker.

If that does not work then get into your 1:1 and drive to the East or West coast and participate in one...
Trust me they are well worth the drive.
I'm looking at flying to Hawaii to be apart of the Shaka Brah Classic this year.... hopefully.

[jeepscx10]

Well in our local Omaha group of about 30+ people they said they would go if there was one close

[minicrawlerguy530]

When is the next nor cal g6?
